Wow.....sorry to have missed this thread.
These little Corsican/Genovese stylets, along with some of the similar type from Albacete are exclusively what I collect. I just never check this part of the forums. I will now.
Anyways..... beautiful pieces!! I have about 70 of them and I am always looking for them. I have purchased from individuals in Europe and all major auction houses.
If anyone has any they ever want to sell.....please message me. I travel to Italy, France and Spain in late May every single year and stay into the first week of July.
I have cash/dollars/euros.....and I will be there regardless of Covid or Ukraine.
And by the way, I just read another thread about transporting knives from Europe back to the US --- I have been doing it for the last five years without one single problem. I brought back 4 Albacete daggers from Madrid in July and the TSA put a flyer in my check-in luggage letting me know they had searched it. Not one single problem....not one knife touched or disturbed.
I get a re-inforced cardboard tube, and tape my business card to the outside of the tube....and then I write on the tube with a sharpy --- Very sharp, Be careful!
I always fly Delta.....and like I said -- never one problem
