What blade steel on numbered 1st production run

[coolhandluke]

What steel was used on 1st run of large sebs that were numbered.I think i read 1st 200 were #.I thought it was ats-34 but since i don't have birthday card i'm not positive.

When first introduced around 1996, the regular style sebenza was to feature the new BG42 steel, however, some of the numbered first batch had leftover ATS34. I had one numbered in the 60's that was ATS34.
The birth certificate is the best way to tell.

Hi Coolhandluke. Did you by any chance sell this knife to a UK buyer? I have recently acquired an early large sebenza, numbered 112.
