I know the rest of the knife is custom. I'm thinking they are because they a countersunk on both ends.

My Mnandi which sits in a box, I think I will be selling as I want a damascus version, like the pictured by Haze, yes after seeing his I want one.
 
The more I carry my Mnandi, the more difficult is to carry anything else. It is turning into the "perfect" knife for me. I even now prefer it over my small Sebenza, which I am keeping only to use to remodel my new house. I carry this is in the bottom of my pocket and it has turned me off to pocket clips. Not sure how, but I went (in no particular order) from a Large Sebenza, SNG, SMF, XM18, Military, Large Grip, BM940, Mini-Commander, Endura, etc., etc., and ended up here. It took me years to figure out my knife NEEDS, and now I just feel funny carrying anything more than what I actually NEED. Anyway....

Is the B-day card on this one my Birthday: November 10th?
If so, I'm not sure if I can wait that long.... ;)
I do not want to ruin your birthday coming up but that knife is one of my favorites. It is a beauty front and back. Glad you like it
 
Man - this thread is killing me! I need to put my own personal parental block for the word "Mnandi". My complete contentment with my small Sebenza is quickly fading.:( Boy, that Snakewood inlay is really nice.
 
The Mnandi is my everyday suit and tie knife... the Umnumzaan is my regular cloths edc... the pair can go anywhere.
 
I understand.... :(
I see you have a few nice ones for sale, I'll just settle for one of those.

A few of mine :D

I do have an African Black Wood Mnandi user that I keep in a jacket pocket. It is amazing how often it gets used even though I normally carry larger knives.

Ivory with the clip removed is great for some scrim.
