Photos needed edit
I've added material with references. Could use images of genuine antique navajas, particularly large santólios or sevillanas, as opposed to modern interpretations of traditional patterns.Dellant (talk) 15:26, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
- The knife photo in the article is my own personal item, but obviously it is a modern piece. This article was an utter mess when I first found it, but I ran out of motivation to write more after a certain point (so my compliments on your thorough job adding new information). Sadly I do not own any antique navaja, but I do know a fellow that sells very old antique edged weapons, and I think I saw a navaja last time I stopped by. I will see if he will allow me to photograph it.Legitimus (talk) 16:01, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
It's not orphaned anymore, laguiole knife points here now. Matthieu (talk) 13:06, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
Seriously? edit
"While most of Spain at that time was about as safe as Victorian London, travel alone after dark was never advisable given occasional encounters with brigands and thieves.[18] The ominous click-clack of a navaja de muelles was a sound dreaded by lone travellers attempting to negotiate lonely rural highways or the Byzantine back streets of medieval Spanish cities after dark.[18]"
I don't care if this is sourced. This is clearly a Victorian traveler's orientalist garbage and not something that should be in an encyclopedia.--Menah the Great (talk) 14:29, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
