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


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 amazing NSwedish Dmasteel  which Andre gave a perfect Blade Etch that shows the striking pattern of the steel.

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 handle is South African Warthog Tusk Ivory with incredible Stainless Steel bolsters engraved by Julien Marchal.
