The New Syracuse series
Stiletto
Switchblades
Automatic Knives
Part of atypical
stiletto switchblades the New Palermo shows a reduction of guard's
prongs size. The result is a smoother, more stream lined form
which in turn makes the knife more adequate to be pocket carried, and
what’s more it lessens the possibility of getting snugged when trying
to take it out of the aforementioned pocket. That’s what
differs the New Palermo from its cousin New Milano; all other main
characteristics are preserved including the firing button and safety
lever placement.
- It is a
stiletto switchblade of good quality.
- The
firing button is locked toward the top of the handle, where is should
be and not stuck in the middle.
- The safety lock is a lever located at the of the handle instead of the inconvenient classical Italian slider that can be too hard or to loose for comfort or security.
- The
knife folds by pushing the firing button instead of the crummy idea of
dealing with a guard prong.
- A
removable belt clip is added, which makes sense for that size of knife.
- The
inserts are flush with bolster, smooth and rounded, just perfect.
- The
whole deal is assembled with screws and not with rivets that made
repairs impossible.
- The
knife is well finished and elegant.
The bottom line:
All the presence of a big stiletto switchblade with the feeling of a comfortable and familiar folding tactical knife, a very nice knife indeed.
