Canadian Umfaan

RDaneel · Mar 4, 2001

I saw a picture somewhere of one of these. Is this a unique design or is there someplace I could get one? If so, where?

Thanks for your help.

That was a one of a kind design, but similar to the Canadian Gold Coin Sebenza. I remember seeing a picture of it in a GGMS(Gary Graley Made Sheath), but who knows who owns it now.

Try contacting CRK by phone or email, they might be able to put a similar knife together for you. Never hurts to ask!

Dean . . . check this thread http://www.bladeforums.com/ubb/Forum29/HTML/000440.html
for a picture of a Canadian Umfaan in a G2 sheath . . .

This is a unique graphic put together by the CRK folks . . . don't know if they made another one.

Yep, that is one purty knife. I have tried to buy it from Ralph, but he won't budge on it. Wish I could find one like it. It is in one of the coolest looking sheaths made by the best sheath maker.

Hey, Michael. We could start a bidding war

Wish I had thought of it first! Gary's sheath must be to keep the drool off. I don't often covet the possessions of others, but in this case.....

Just thought I'd mention that I did order one of these 3 months ago. It should be here any day now.

Dean . . . please post a picture when you receive the Canadian Umfaan. I want to see if they can really duplicate this work of art!

I'll try to get my son to take a digital photo (I don't have that capability). May take me awhile - I've got some heavy traveling to do.

I'm curious too if they are "identical". When I ordered it, they said, "OK Canadian Maple Leaf Umfaan." Sounded almost like they did it every day, or every 3 months

I am very impatient, now; hope it comes by Saturday!!!

It came today. Beautiful. It has 12 maple leaves of various sizes and colors - from gold to blue. It is absolutely stunning in the sunlight.

Opens and closes smooth and clicks into place. I guess you could say this is a pretty good knife
