Willem Steenkamp
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 Willem Steenkamp.
Willem is one of the most personable SA Makers I have met, he is a stickler for detail and strives for perfection. He has a passion for the craft that he exhibits in every knife he makes.
Fort Henry Custom Knives is proud to be a Dealer for Willem Steenkamp
~ Direct from the Maker from the Blade Show 2014 ~
This is a beatuiful example of Willem’s modified Loveless Stiff Horn design ~ I feel that this is an exemplary value with wonderful fit and finish.
The design is one that could be easily and discreetly carried and has renough blade length for any small daily chore. A very comfortable handle design due to the “drop” in the rear of the handle, hand crafted with beautiful materials.
The is a Full Tang design that was hand ground from Bohler Uddeholm N690 Stainless steel. Subtle Red Liners help the handle material to pop.
It has a Full Height Hollow Grind and a very fine point and is Razor Sharp. The N690 steel is quickly gaining popularity with American Makers, it is a very clean Austrian steel with a nice amount of Chromium to make it nearly maintenance free.
A very comfortable design, secured with Two Smaller Pins front and back and a Mosaic Pin for a dash of color. The shape and size of the handle allows for a comfortable, secure grip.
Provided with a thick, extremely well finished Leather Pouch Sheath, (No Belt Loop) that allows the knife to sit low inside the sheath.
A quality package direct from the Maker.
Complete with a Padded Zipper Storage Pouch
