African Buffalo Horn on both. The TEW is an exquisite folder - a description that is rare for me with Sheffield folders - it was made by a fella I know who used to work there, as was the previous MOP 2-blader yesterday.

The other is made by South African maker friend Ig Loubser (lives, works in UK now) and is the only maker I know to do tapered liners………his ingenuity and craftsmanship is off the scale.

These items are all from 2019, when I started getting really interested in knives. My first good EDC knife, the first knife I bought just because it was pretty, my first GEC and first EDC hank.
