Congrats Lisa, that is one awesome knife!

He does a job on Sebenza's like no other. Well, from what I hear/read anyway, I've never had a chance to hold one.

I love the thumbstud, hand rubbed blade finish, regrind, and of course the skeletonizing.
 
Congrats Lisantica!

I remember when I started out on the forum DaveH had one (going on memory here). He forgot his in snow for a few days, found it cleaned it and it was good to go. Damn, now I miss his posts R.I.P. brother.
 
Not sure he's doing them, he's completely back-logged on projects, I recently asked him myself.
 
I am pretty sure Tom Mayo is no longer doing any for the general public. He might do one for himself or someone with a lot of clout with him, but the rest of us just have to go to the exchanges or sometimes a dealer might have one.

I came back to the forum after a long absence only to find out Dave had passed. We never met, but shared a love for Sebenza's.
I miss him too.
 
It has been a long time since Tom Mayonized a Sebenza. I had two. . .both large Sebenzas. His tweaks and modifications were fantastic! Smooth? Something that epitomizes all of Tom's knives. Just deploying the blade brings a smile.
