In January this year, we arranged for him to complete a maximum of 100 hunters with a creative variation of the same theme. He has created images on both the obverse and reverse sides of the handle scales, not just a repeat as you might expect, but the obverse side has an image of the tiger walking toward you and the reverse side, an image of the tiger walking away from you. Very nice!

His knives improved for several years, but it was not until Tinus began selling outside South Africa that knifemaking became profitable.
