Shaw, A. (Adam) of S. Africa. Cape Buffalo/Brass Handle. Beautiful 10” Knife
This is a stunning 10-inch knife from South African knife maker Adam Shaw. The 5-inch, file-worked spine, satin, bevel-grind blade is made from premium, CPM S90V, stainless steel and features a clip point with a plain edge. The handle is made from beautiful, presentation-quality, Cape Buffalo horn and brass and has hidden tang. This knife is perfect for hunting or everyday carry and comes with a very nice, well-made, handstitched, top-grain cowhide, leather sheath with wet-stone pouch! It is a handmade, unique, one-off, original piece from South Africa and is ambidextrous. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to own this beautiful and functional piece from a master craftsman. Knife is about 12-14 years old, from my collection. Never carried, handled, used or sharpened, only stored for collection purposes. Exquisitely made to look nice but very solid and functional! Note Metal snaps on sheath are a little crusty/corroded from age/storage.
