Sport, Military and Collectible Knives | Coltelleria Collini

The KA-BAR George Roscoe is a surprisingly sturdy and easy-to-handle daily carry fixed-blade knife designed by award-winning custom knifemaker Les George. Made entirely in the USA from 425 high carbon stainless steel, it is designed to offer reliable performance and great strength in everyday use.

The compact 46mm Wharncliffe blade and full-tang construction provide structural strength in a total length of just 105.4mm. Its small size and low weight (68g.) make it easy to carry, discreet and quick to use. The knife comes with a durable Celcon sheath with the Les George logo, designed to ensure safe retention and instant access.

The KA-BAR George Roscoe is therefore a compact yet extremely effective EDC, built in the USA to offer robustness and functionality well beyond its small size.

Ed Schempp, a wheat farmer, metallurgist, and renowned knife maker, created the Persian Folder by blending classic Western elegance with exotic Eastern charm. Traditionally, Persian knives are fixed, but Ed reinterpreted this typical shape in a folding knife.

Characterized by curved and harmonious lines, the Persian Folder 90 mm stands out for its black Micarta scales combined with polished stainless steel guards. The handle features a series of finger choils that allow for a firm grip and total control of the blade. The blade, inspired by the East, has a pronounced belly and an elegant upward-pointing tip.

Made of high-performance VG-10 steel with a concave grind, the blade measures 89 mm and features a prominent “hump” above the opening hole, ideal as a thumb rest. The clip allows for right-side tip-up pocket carry. A milling on the locking mechanism, known as the David Boye Dent, increases safety by preventing accidental unlocking during a firm grip.

The ASTOR is our first folding knife in collaboration with prolific knife maker Les George, winner of Blade Show 2021 as "Imported Knife of the Year."

The ASTOR was built as a sturdy working knife! With its sturdy G-10 grips, thick liner-lock and high-strength CTS-XHP steel blade, the ASTOR is the perfect knife for those jobs that require a little extra toughness.

All of our Bronze Field Grade productions incorporate our new "Oil Infused Bronze Bushing System" or "OIBBS"! Our sintered bronze bushings are impregnated with oil, which reduces friction on the blade, thus ensuring that the blade opens smoothly, even when firmly held. This system is especially useful for low speeds, intermittent use and irregular loads such as those found on folding knives.
