Description: South African knifemaker, Jan Wahl, is a maker to watch. He became a full time knife maker in 2009 and joined the South African Knife Makers Guild in 2012. Jan has excellent attention to detail.
The precision drop point blade is made from satin finished N690 stainless steel. N690 is created by Bohler in Austria. It takes an incredibly sharp edge and holds on to it. Increased toughness gives it better resistance to edge chipping. The blade is hollow ground for an easy to maintain edge. The spine has been nicely rounded for comfort.
Stabilized maple burl scales are set on a distal tapered full tang for excellent balance. The scales are perfectly matched from side to side. The handle is nicely contoured to swell in the middle and end for a perfect grip. It is finished with a textured and engraved stainless steel bolster.
This knife is accompanied by a vegetable tanned leather sheath.
Excellent work throughout!
