That was in 2016 right after the Rendezvous. It brings back some fond memories of a true friend! Your support was deeply appreciated then and it’s great to see them again!View attachment 850677 View attachment 850679
Picked these two up as a pair from Half Stop before this thread existed. Only appropriate that they be taken out and photographed together-

Thought this was apt pairing.

Nice backstory and a lovely knife, Paul. It certainly meets any criteria I'd have for being traditional.First of all, hope I'm allowed this drop-point hunter as 'traditional'
Many, many moons ago I met Wilbur and his first wife, Danielle, when I lived and worked in Seychelles and designed their first holiday home for them on Cerf Island. A lovely man, with great humility and charm.
The book is set in Kenya where I was born........and it reminds me I must get my own assegai's handled properly and mounted........it's only been a few years
The drop point hunter is by Kevin Harvey, SA Guild member and the assegais pictured were actually made by his wife, Heather - they are both Master Bladesmiths of ABS. I bought the hunter when I went to stay with them a few years ago in SA.
