Thanks for the great pictures and discriptions Andreas. When you emailed me about these two makers and how good their knives were, I thought that it would be nice to see some pictures. From what I can see, you were correct. Very nice indeed.

I've seen a number of Greiss knives at shows and I was impressed by their quality. Nice functional lines. Thanks for the pictures!
