Description

Andre Thorburn

 I was very fortunate to begin working with several South African Knife Makers many years ago, I am continually impressed with the Quality of their knives and the value they offer.  In my journey as a knife dealer several SA Makers have introduced me to other SA Makers and the list of quality knives that I sell from that country continues to grow.  

The newest addition to my website is South African Knife Makers Guild member Andre Thorburn.   

 Fort Henry Custom Knives is proud to be a Dealer for Andre Thorburn


Direct from the Maker from the recent NYCKS 2013

Andre is known World Wide for his precision Flippers, so I am very excited to introduce his work to my Customers

 The blade was hand ground from tough N690 Stainless steel which Andre gave a near Flawless finish.   The handle is Brown Earth G-10 with an Exterior Pebble Texture – the handles fit with precision against the Desert Tan G-10 bolster inlays.

This is one of Andre’s Front Flippers, the right amount of pressure on the discreet mechanism causes the blade to Leap into the Open and Locked Position!  Incredible action that will bring a smile to your Face!

The Integral Thumb Recess along with the subtle Thumb Ridges (which are continued onto the Ti Frame) make for a very comfortable Full Hand Grip.
