When I was a kid, a well made switchblade was like the holy grail of "toys". From cheap Asian kit knives, to personally imported Mexican junk, I could never find a quality knife. Finally, I found an orange Schrade paratrooper knife my dad brought home from Vietnam; and not long after that a friend showed me one of the original sterile SEAL knives he got from the manufacturer as a reject. Soon, tactical autos were everywhere, and I eventually obtained a couple of Dalton Cupids and a Microtech HALO as the best I had seen. I later gave the Mini-Cupid to my dad and sold the Cupid; and have been carrying S&W 1000 Military autos ever since. Fast forward 10 years to present, I recently bought a Dalton butterfly knife and a pretty Warfist brass knucks, and I'd like to find a few of the prettier and more interesting Dalton autos I have seen on the internet.
