AKC 11" Roma Swinguard Automatic Knife – Black Stonewash Snakewood
The AKC 11" Roma Swinguard Automatic Knife with Snakewood Handle combines classic Italian-inspired Swinguard styling with a darker tactical finish and the natural character of genuine snakewood. Designed for collectors and automatic knife enthusiasts, this full-size 11-inch Swinguard features a black stonewash 440 stainless steel blade, matching dark hardware, and traditional push-button automatic action.
The 4.62-inch drop point blade is made from 440 stainless steel and finished in a durable black stonewash that gives the knife a distinctive worn-in tactical appearance while helping conceal minor scratches and everyday handling marks. Its flat grind provides a versatile cutting profile, while the oversized blade gives the Roma Swinguard its unmistakable classic presence.
A defining feature of the Roma design is its swinging finger guard, which deploys with the blade. This traditional Swinguard mechanism adds hand protection while preserving the iconic styling associated with large Italian-style automatic knives.
The handle is fitted with genuine snakewood scales, known for their dramatic natural grain and rich color variation. Because snakewood is a natural material, each knife has its own individual pattern, making every piece slightly different. The contrast between the natural wood and black stonewashed hardware creates a distinctive combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern tactical styling.
A push-button automatic mechanism provides fast blade deployment, while the integrated sliding safety helps prevent accidental activation during carry or storage. The traditional lockback mechanism secures the blade firmly in the open position.
Finished with the authentic AKC World tang stamp, the AKC Roma Snakewood Swinguard is an eye-catching choice for collectors looking for a large automatic knife that blends classic Swinguard design, natural wood handles, and a modern black stonewash finish.
