Just wanted to give a shout out to ABK.
I received this Wasp (from my wonderful wifey) for Christmas:

That weekend, my father and his wife were in town visiting for our "after" Christmas Christmas, at which point during the visit we talked and conversed, and at one point I showed them my new blade. Neither of them is a knife enthusiast, farthest from, (my father buys tools at the dollar store discount bin), but both were thoroughly impressed with the "beautiful knife."
After they left, later that night, as I was putting my stuff away, I noticed to my utter dismay;

A gash through the back of the sheath, the lengthof the belt loop... "Someone" carelessly resheathed the knife and ruined the sheath :(

I contacted Arno Bernard via email, briefly detailing the events that took place, and it did take a while for them to get back to me, (understandably so as it was the holidays), but when they did, without questions or cost, they mailed me a new sheath which arrived today.

Great company, beautiful knives. Many thanks to Arno Bernard and staff, I can't wait to purchase another...

(I apologize for the poor quality of my pictures of late, my phone is a pos, cracked screen, scuffed lens, but I'm admittedly too lazy to get out a camera and then download through the CPU, so since my phone still works, I simply use it.)

They make excellent quality knives. I'm always impressed when I look at their products. Although not all of the handle materials are my cup of tea, I think it's pretty cool to have a croc skin or giraffe bone handle.

It's pretty cool to see them get you a new sheath even though it wasn't a manufacturing defect.

That's why I felt it was worth posting!

I contacted them with every intention of purchasing a new sheath, (since sheaths alone are not listed for sale anywhere), and the only Question asked in response was, "what's your address? We'll send you a new one."

Easy breezy...
 
Congrats, welcome to the world of South African-made knives. That's a fine knife you have there:thumbup:
