Bonsa - Herbertz ???

Post by XBMX »

I have been looking at this knife of some time. Attracted to its all stainless design. I've seen it tang stamped Bonsa and Herbertz.Am I correct that Bonsa build them all?

Bonsa made all of them.
The handles are not stainless, they are chrome plated zinc.
While the metal Bonsas are all beautiful knives, the soft zinc handles cause early blade peek problems.

Yep, it seems like most have blade peek. Even the above one is starting by the looks.
