Pics: New Burger LEXK

A few weeks ago I ordered this knife from Trevor Burger. I told him I would be visiting the south coast of KZN over the easter weekend and that I would stop over at his workshop and collect it. I was lucky enough to get the grand tour and really enjoyed my visit - Trevor was busy preparing fro the Durban Knife Show but still found the time to show me arround and answer all my questions.

Here are some pics. I addeed a few comparing the new LEXK to the old EXK.

OK, I don't know how a pic of my CZ bb pistol found it's way in there...?

Nice, Nice knife. I really like these knives and those are sweet. i want one in a bad way. Thanks for the good pics. Enjoy!!

Great looking design on that new knife! Congrats.

SpartanSaint · May 1, 2011

What are the dimensions on your lexk? Like blade length, overall etc

Slider817 · May 1, 2011

Thanks for the pics, the Lexk is a great knife. I have one in Carbon Fibre and Damasteel, I absolutely love it, feather lite, and an excellent slicer, perfect EDC, and the size lends itself to defensive use.

Very nice, I'd like to get one of those.

Thanks for all the comments.

For those who are interested in some specs, here is a link to the Burger website:

Love a good looking, simple design knife. :thumbup:

Slider817 - I agree with you, the EXK's are excellent slicers. I use my small EXK in the kitchen almost exclusively.

Did you order from the website and have it shipped to NY?

Trevor just made this one for me, twist damasteel and inner mammoth ivory. I love it

I'll be on holiday in Trevor's neck of the woods after Christmas next month. I have to admit, my bank manager is a bit nervous...

mike_b · Nov 8, 2011

BTW, those damascus steel knives are something else. Congrats to you guys. Use and enjoy.

marcinek · Nov 8, 2011

Very nice. Congrats and enjoy! Its fantastic to see work from a maker who isn't obsessed with pointless design elements or tacti-fantasy and clearly is concentrating on making a cutting tool.

Saxeimus · Dec 28, 2011

Where can I get one of his knives?

dwong · Dec 28, 2011

Very nice, really want one for use around camp.

Great knife Mike enjoy!

Here are my two which I recently received from Trevor............ http://www.sablade.com/forums/showthread.php?822-New-Arrivals-for-the-pairs-collection

Both arrived absolutely PERFECT. The operation and fit & finish are as good as you will find anywhere. Trevor is quickly getting a fantastic reputation as a folder maker.

Very nice BTW
