San Michele Italian System WeaponsQuattroccho MulettoThe Muletto is the unique long blade of San Michele. Blades like this are shown in the book a” SICILIAN STILETTO FIGHTING, THE WAY OF HONOR,” by Don Vito Quattrocchi. Detailed and vital training information can be found on our page of Italian Knife DVDs under THE MULETTO and should be purchased if you want to learn the correct way it was designed be used, foot work, etc.
For 2020, CAVALIERE GRANDE WILIAM SANDERS, has for the first time designed an improved Muletto for this art. Upon seeing this blade Don Vito Quattrocchi has proclaimed this the OFFICAL QUATTROCCHI MULETTO! This one, rather than being constructed from light fencing foil blades has a completely new construction, made from a solid cylinder of high-grade steel and worked by hand down into super strong triangle blade with a unique bullet tip which has far better penetrating qualities even against hard objects without breaking or bending. The edges are sharpened near the tip for slashing and the sturdy but fast blade has a larger more effective guard.
The handle is wrapped in comfortable, soft leather with the proper curve to it. The end of the handle is constructed of a solid block of the same steel for strong, pummel strikes. There is no flimsy end cap to fly off. This one now comes with a beautiful high-class leather belt sheath as well, with a secure snap on the handle section but that can quickly be opened. The owners have declared this as” built as solid as a tank but fast as a snake."

San Michele Sub-Hilt Fighter Knife
Here is the latest San Michele fighting knife, THE SAN MICHELE SUB-HILT FIGHTER. For some time I have been studying sub hilt knives. The origins of this idea in a knife seem to be very unclear, although the famous old knife maker, now deceased, Bob Loveless is credited with making them famous. One can also see the idea, however, in certain old swords and fencing foils like the now extremely popular orthopedic grip models. There are some misconceptions on this design. One is you are restricted and locked into the forward grip only. Now this may be so in some models but I can assure, NOT in this one, I had to play with the angle of the grip I wanted, where the balance and trigger was. Over all shape and texture of the handle and grip cap design and this is the result. In my San Michele model blade is super smooth secure and fast moving from forward to reverse positions, the shape and size of the handle lock it up into the palm. The grip cap doubles as a close in weapon. The Steel in the 10 inch blade is the finest Chromium high carbon blend for the hundreds of layers of Damascus and the grip is real Amber stag for great beauty and superior gripping functions in all weather, wet or dry conditions. As in all of our blades a good guard is mandatory and the trigger functions as added security so the hand is secure and safe from sliding onto the blade in combat. The control, accuracy and power of draw cuts and snap cuts is phenomenally increased. The blade shape functions well for both thrusting and chopping. This is the knife of a professional knife artist of San Michele. This is a true knight’s blade of the art for sophisticated adepts. The high quality leather sheath can be had for vertical or horizontal cross draw use, my favorite.
These are hand made to order and you can’t get a finer balanced and designed sub hilt masterpiece of this quality for under $1500. Many cost far more than are more than mass produced ill designed ones. This is not a mass produced stainless steel unbalanced cheap blade with poorly designed ergonomics. Hand made to order with the sheath, for $350 plus postage. Allow six weeks or so to have one built for you. See my DVD on the use of the sub hilt fighter in combat as well.
