    Just had my 60th on the weekend & was gifted these custom F1, S1 and A1 Fallknivens by the crew ,back when we were traveling around Oz in our Mitzi 4x4 Canter Camper ,we would drop the camper off in remote mountain spots & go Sambar hunting for a couple of weeks at a time ,we got to know & become good friends with a few of the keen Hound teams as they would hunt during the week & it ended up they would share our camp & leave gear with us rather than carting it back & forth .

    One of the blokes was a very talented Knife maker & he custom made these to my specs ,unbeknown to me, mates had been cunningly squizzing me on what l thought was a perfect hunting knife set up around the camp fires while we were away hunting .

    I have always liked the larger Fallknivens for field dressing/butchering but have big hands so found the handles on the small side & we do a lot of Jet Boat hunting & a couple of Stewart Island boat, Fiordland expeditions each year,so wanted a Kydex sheath & a large camp/boat knife . He custom made the larger handles & Kydex Sheaths for me & reground them ,they have already done a couple Deer,Pigs & Goats each .
