Nice Small Flyssa on Ebay

[Lew]

Hi All

This seems to be a nice old flyssa but my question is are these small flyssa made for boys or is it a dagger/knife size version carried by adults as a back up weapon?

It looks very well made Lew .
I'd opine judging from the handle size that it's a side knife .

Seller's drac2k ; I remember him from the good old days as a buyer ; maybe some of these early Ebay buyers are now selling off parts of their collections .

What an excellent buy. It looks like a real heavy duty knife to me. The handles are small on the bigger ones as well. I imagine they are held in the thumb and forefinger style grip.
