Description: South African knifemaker Andre van Heerden creates an amazing folder -- and at a price that could never be found from an American maker.
The drop point blade has smooth action and is perfectly centered. The Mosaic Damascus used throughout the knife was forged by Ettoré Gianferarri, assuring that the patterns will be unique and different from those generally found on the American market. Both the blade and bolsters are extremely complex and immediately grab attention. Exhibition grade white lip mother of pearl scales are brilliant white with a full spectrum flash and underlying complex texture. The scales are nicely dovetailed to the bolsters. Titanium liners have been bronze anodized and surround the stainless steel backbar. Excellent fit and finish throughout.
