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
Just Received ~ Direct from the Maker
This is a beautiful example of Willem’s modified Loveless Drop Point design ~ I feel this knife is an exemplary value with wonderful fit and finish!
The design is THE classic for any outdoor chore, a very comfortable hunter that was Hand Ground from Bohler Uddeholm N690 Stainless steel. It has a near Full Height Hollow Grind, a Distal Taper, 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.
This knife has an extremely High Satin Polish on all surfaces. Willem has added some Custom Alternating Thumb Ridges on the spine.
Very comfortable handle contouring with palm swell and Thin Red Liners, the handle scales are Polished Black Paper Micarta handle scales. The Handle Scales are secured with classic Corby Bolts, just like the older Loveless knives.
The shape and size of the handle allows for a comfortable, secure grip.
Provided with a thick, extremely well finished Right Hand Leather Belt Sheath, the knife fits deep and securely, no chance of the knife accidentally falling out.
A quality package direct from the Maker.
Complete with a Padded Zipper Storage Pouch
