Let's see those Umfaans!!!

trane fan · Oct 31, 2004

Over the course of my time on BFC I've seen countless pics of Sebbies and Mnandis but Umfaan pics have been quite rare (maybe that's because Umfaans have become sort of rare). So I thought I'd show off mine in hopes of getting some of you other Umfaan owners to post a pic or two. How about it?? Mine is a unique graphic Umfaan w/DOB: 11-15-99. OK, who's next?

Here's a link to one I picked up recently from Classic Guns & Knives. Good people to deal with!

This Umfaan is a little jewel!

No, he was a one-handed jazz piano player in the 60's.

Here are two Left Handed Umfaans.

The plain one is mine.

I've got the second one on Matt's picture in left handed. It was the last one in San Diego.

Here are the 5 production runs 1997-2001 and the last one is a custom.

Enjoyed seeing these. Why did CR discontinue them and how long ago? Are they still available anywhere? Thanks!

Sigh, I wish I'd never traded mine

Here is my favorite Umfaan of all time - saw it an Ebay and passed at the time - I really regret it.

Right around $450. It kills me to even think about it.

RGRAY · Nov 5, 2004

How's this one?

RGRAY · Nov 5, 2004

I liked this one.

It was called the Canadian.

I liked this one. It was called the Canadian.

Not to be confused with the Jamaican.
