Semi custom flippers

Wow it's spot on. I put it up with the umnumzaan just for size comparison. Cuts on my fingers are from caulking bare wood all day and the other from the damn drywall mud blade. Lol

Locks up so solid yet it's a breeze to disengage. Flys open like the break of wind. Just a beautiful fantastic knife.
Thanks for the help and pointers.
👍

I know where you got that from!:) The paper in the background tells it all:D

I knew you'd enjoy it. Welcome to the Thorburn club;)
 
For an amazing flipper, you can't go wrong with something made by Andre Thorburn. Made in South Africa with spectacular fit & finish, and flipping action that I feel is some of the best out there.

Price is around $600-750 for something similar to what's pictured. However, Andre has flippers that are more "dressy" with engravings and gold inlays and such for about $900+ Perhaps Thales2015 will chime in with some more offerings from André.

The CF one is his L51 model, and the green G10 is his L44

I've since looked at his work since you managed to acquire and post first hand experience. I really like his work. The CF one is great.

Who doesn't love André:) I'd say go for it, he is one hell of a maker! I blame David (Thales) for my desire for Thorburns and Traditionals:D

Haha! David will have to teach you the secret handshake:D:p
 
Awesome! SO happy you like it. You got a really nice one with a unique swedge extending all the way to the thumb-ramp...haven't seen that before. VERY cool! :thumbup:

Huh, good eye I didn't even notice that detail. 😃
 
Big time congrats!
I too have recently joined Club Thorburn. I had to get it direct from Andre.
Can you guess why?
