Susan asks…

What's the differance between a Milano switchblade and a stiletto knife?

I got a switchblade off the Internet as a present for my dad (he has a liscense) and it says Italian Milano on the blade, is it different from a stiletto?

Our pick of the answers:

The milanos are "clones", useally made in china or korea, of an italian stiletto. The clones can be fun little toys but seeing as your pops is liscensed buy him a real italian next time. I'm sure he'll appreciate the higher quality.
