Its simplicity is what makes it great. Love that blade shape. Thank you for sharing it with us. Photo of the backside would be nice, too

Do you know when that knife was manufactured? It's a gem of a collector's piece.

More than 1 month I think, because I have 30+ knives in my collection.

Does that knife have the pivot bushing? Also, what was he using for blade steel in those days.

Good question. Yes, it has bushing, it has almost the same main characters as later Sebenzas. The blade steel? Guess it, it is a common stainless steel in the old days.

12C27. It was very difficult for Chris Reeve to get better stainless steel in South Africa in 1988.
