This auto knife is about 4 inches long when closed. When the main blade is snapped open, it’s about 7 1/4 inches long. The blade snaps open with no peeking. On the front side of the tang it says “Stainless Steel” and there are no other markings. I think this knife was made it Italy, but I am not sure. On the back side of the handle is a bull and and a matador fighting. There is a hair line crack from the center pin, it is hard to see, but I assure you it’s there.
