Giovanni Beltrame 9" Italian Stiletto – Bayonet Blade | Brazilian Horn Handle #1 | Dolphins Maniago

A stunning expression of traditional Italian craftsmanship, this 9" switchblade comes from Giovanni Beltrame, crafted in partnership with Dolphins Knives of Maniago, Italy. Built with a bayonet-style 420 stainless steel blade, this knife offers sleek performance and unmistakable vintage character.

Its genuine Brazilian horn handle has been hand-selected for its natural grain and coloration—each piece is entirely unique. Accented with polished bolsters, brass liners, and brass rivets, this stiletto captures the enduring appeal of Italian automatic knives.

It features a swivel bolster release to close the blade and a sliding safety lock located beneath the actuator button to secure it when not in use.

Giovanni Beltrame has earned a strong reputation among Maniago’s artisan knife makers for his dedication to traditional methods and fine materials. With Frank Beltrame having recently retired, knives like this one continue to carry the torch for Italy’s legendary switchblade legacy.

This is a one-of-a-kind piece—the knife shown in the photos is exactly the one you'll receive.
