Description: Growing up in a house where everybody had creative hobbies, John has always enjoyed making things with his hands. A part time knifemaker and architect by profession, John Arnold finds both joy and satisfaction in designing and constructing well balanced, well proportioned and beautiful knives. The Knifemakers Guild of South Africa recognized John's skill and accepted him as a member in September 2006.
John has designed this strong, reliable folder for everyday carry, yet it could easily be a cherished knife in any collection. The satin finished blade is wickedly sharp, incorporating a fascinating grind - John has sculpted the swedge in such a way that when viewed point-first, the modified tanto tip forms an elongated diamond shape. The action is silky smooth, and the blade is perfectly centered without the slightest wobble.
The handle scales are formed from sleek, desert tan G10 - the pattern of the polished G10 complements the overall design nicely. The angular, sculpted scales are set on gold anodized titanium liners, jewel polished on the interior. A partial backbar extends into a sharply delineated lanyard hole. Ambidextrous thumb studs and satin finished screws complete the piece.
