Never heard of him/it before. Not a fan of the onlayed versions of the iMamba but the sleek lines of the plain Ti version (which apparently is the only version currently available for sale) "speak to me."
It reminds me of a Sebenza. One negative to me is that the blade at 3.4" is just a bit short for me (I prefer folders between 3 5/8-4") and, at $450 (plus $20 shipping), it's approaching my buy limit of $500 and the closer it gets to that limit the more I have to "think about it."
But, now that you've mentioned it, I'll be keeping an eye out for one on the Exhange (and elsewhere) to see if I can catch one for less.

If you haven't seen it yet, here's a BF thread where it's also being discussed: Arno Bernard iMamba Praise.
He's a well known and respected South African maker. @Steven65 can fill you in much more about Arno Bernard.
Only a pleasure Elliot.
Arno has been a member of the Knifemakers Guild of South Africa for many years. He is a fixture of the Blade Show in Atlanta and he has done many other knife and hunting shows in the U.S. over the years.
His hunting knives have gone all over the world and he is famous for making knives with African materials like Giraffe.
I have not seen this particular knife but from what i have been told by people I respect, it's nice.![]()
Two weeks?View attachment 1846158
Started beveling the SDFK today. Well, tried to anyway.
Going to need different carbide I think. But at least we're started on it
Two weeks?
No soup for you!Nah.
I think the carbide will be here in about a week!
I just sent him an email. I'll let you guys know if I find out anything.Random thought:
yoko needs to check in...or else he's gonna have some splainin' to do.
Anybody got any updates?
Thank you, Jo. I appreciate it.He's going to update when he has a chance, but thanks everyone for their concern. He's ok, but it's not resolved. The guy is still there and a problem.
