Other examples exist but you will not find another set like this ever. Each knife has it’s particular carved spot in the African Mahogany case. Can’t use the’I’ word but this is from the African savanna so I’m sure you can figure out the handle material; and the artwork is gorgeous. Each knife is signed as well as seen in the pictures. This is the best set you’ll ever find and I have no doubt about that… Display case collectors item which will make for an instant heirloom. It’s the only one that exists so I cannot use the word “rare”. It’s the ONLY one. No splitting in the handles, and the blades are like mirrors. Everything has always been lubricated accordingly including the case. I’ve kept this either in a climate-controlled cabinet or in a safe for 40 years… Which makes this set an antique as well. You will not be disappointed with this immaculate set. This is a masterpiece of museum quality. This is a statement piece at the very top of ANY collection. Case: 6 3/4″ x 9″ x 2. Knives overall: 8 1/4. The item “Custom Knife Set Pieter Viljoen (South Africa)” is in sale since Tuesday, December 15, 2020.

Arno Bernard makes some of the most beautiful fixed blade knives and this surely has to be one of them. His knives are classic beauties, not some pimps’ Cadillac-looking knife. The (probably)Giraffe shin bone handle is quite nice while the blade is plain but very nice looking. It does have some very minor scratching on it but does not really detract from the knife. Other than that it was lovingly owner and cared for. The sheath looks to be Buffalo leather and is near perfect also. This piece is on consignment so there is no return. This item is available for sale locally at Hawthorne Cutlery and local antique and knife shows in the Portland, OR area. If we ever have them again. Hawthorne Cutlery is open Tuesday thru Sat. From 11ish to 4ish during this pandemic. Masks are requested but clothing is optional. Don’t forget the Antique Japanese Sword Shows the might still happen around the country. The first is in August (maybe) at the San Francisco Airport Marriott and the second is in Orlando and that date has tentatively been set for Oct. Both are wonderful three day shows. The Blade Show West might still happen in early November. Haven’t hear anything about the big Blade Show in Atlanta. Can’t really find too many good things to say about the Blade Show West here in Portland. Not offered internationally unless you consider Orlando to be international. It’s not, it’s just Florida.
