Corrie Schoeman Knives

[AnklePocket]

Can anyone tell me/us about Corrie Schoeman's knives? Happened into them and they're looking better every time although I've never handled one.
Thanks.

He recently had some photographs taken of his most recent work which I'm sure he'd be prepared to post / eMail to you. Corrie has a strong following in the USA.

All I know is Corrie is a South African maker, he does very nice work, and is becoming wellknown in the US

I have one of Corrie's liner-locks with damascus blade and bolsters. It has some of the most beautiful mammoth ivory scales that I have ever seen. Nice knife. I am sure that you will be seeing more of his work.

I handled his knives and consider them one of the best values out there. Remarkable construction and beautiful combinations of materials, finishes and filework - these should be selling for a lot more than what Corrie gets for them. I was impressed by the detente - slowly closing the knife, you can see the blade get grabbed and fully closed by itself once it gets in range of the detente.
