It was an honor and privilege to have met this man and his wife today. Andre Shoeman is a custom knife maker in South Africa and they made a special trip to my hotel to show me there wares. I purchased all the items shown, well he threw in a couple for free, and thirty minutes after they left I had regrets for not buying more. I sent them a text, picked out two more knives, and they will get them shipped to me in Namibia this week. His knives were incredible , very well made, and all felt so natural in my hand. All three pictured have sable bone handles with 440 steel blades.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
