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 Blade Show 2014

Andre is known World Wide for his precision Flippers, so I am very excited to offer his work to my Customers / this is one of his amazing XL Gentleman’s Flippers

 The blade was hand ground from tough N690 Stainless steel which Andre gave a near Flawless finish and the handles are Forest Green G10 with  Red Liners, and an Embossed Stainless Bolster inlay.

This is one of Andre’s Most Popular Flippers, just a bit of pressure on the flipper mechanism causes the blade to Leap into the Open and Locked Position!  Incredible action that will bring a smile to your Face!

Superb action and perfect Lock Up.
