Andy Freedberg 1095 fixie, Marathon GSAR (watch), Strider SnG S30V, cheapo Japanese slip joint, Burt's Bees lip balm.
I found that slip joint buried in the sand when I was about 10 years old. It became my most prized possession. I thought that it had washed up on the shores from an old pirate ship. Little did I know that it was stamped "Stainless Steel", and is made in Japan. haha. I still carry it every now and then for fun.

Just got this in, and it immediately replaced the Umnumzaan in my pocket. I have a lot of knives, but this Andre Thorburn has me absolutely blown away! There's so many things this knife has going for it; and this flipping action! Oh man...
It's like I've been living on another planet this whole time!

If you haven't experienced Andres work before, I suggest you do so as fast as possible. This thing is amazing!

Exquisite. Did you work through him personally or some kind of dealer?
 
Those SOGs look nice. I've always felt they do a better job at fixed blades than folders. I wonder if you feel the same way?

Yeah, it's usually a lot easier to eliminate bladeplay from a fixed blade than a folder in terms of manufacturing... ;):D:foot::thumbup: My four SOG folders all have play both side to side and up & down. The fixed blades have none. ;););):rolleyes::cool:

My EDC for the next 3.5 weeks. We're going to Japan! Since Japan's knife laws are very strict, no knives are coming with me :'(.

I was trying to go through him personally, but I had a hard time finding a way/time to call South Africa. Plus my emails were being rejected due to some network problem.

However, last week, Folder Friday came around, the stars aligned, and now here I sit with this beautiful piece of work!
