This website called Wikipedia says that Chris Reeve is originally from South Africa. Guess that's why he uses African words to name his knives ;)
That little smiley with the winking eye is called an emoticon. It indicates that I was being slightly sarcastic. But in a good natured way, not trying to be a jerk ;)
 
Zulu is one of our 12 official languages. In our province of KwaZulu-Natal the main language is Zulu. Chris and his family comes from that province hence the association with Zulu.

Ha ha, jip, 12 with a few that are not official such as Fanagalo.

I am actually busy learning my third, but motivation has been low so no real progress.
