Only one way to find out for sure and that's to email CRK's direct. May take a day or two but they've always replied to my queries.
I have a small collection of Chris Reeves early South African knives and have researched as much as I'm able. He made all sorts of stuff in the early days, but I've never seen any forged knives like that. I hope I'm wrong but my gut feeling is no. Chris is an engineer by training his knives are distinctive, sharp lines, very controlled, precise and well finished.
Be very interested in their reply......
