Wow that is truly gorgeous! The shamrock is such a genius touch of flare! I fell in love at first sight!

Cheers,

A fitting tribute indeed to your passed loved ones Jim.  That's a real stunner. I've never seen mammoth molar used for a knife scale before. Never even heard of it. It must be quite rare and is absolutely gorgeous. You've really set the bar high now my friend. I think just taking that out and admiring it from time to time is going to gives you many years of pleasure. Cheers Jim. ATB Doug.

Very may it bring good memories of your mother and aunt.

[imaster]

Gorgeous handle scales. That'd be my steak knife.

[LarsRibe]

...My. Goodness. What a stunning knife.

[zednotzee]

Oh my, that really is a beautiful thing ! Definitely a functional piece of art as much as a knife. I'm jealous as hell lol.

[marshalllaw]

Been lusting after that knife for ages! You're a lucky bloke!

[slick_slicers]

Wow, that’s a thing! I’ll not be buying one, but that’s down to the price more than anything. That beer sounds good. A beer that tastes of, well, beer, is a novelty these days, but even more welcome than ever!

[paulhughes]

That is one beautiful knife its nice to treat one's self once in a while

[traditionallarry]

Jim a very beautiful knife you have there maybe we should call it a work of art instead.Enjoy it for many years to come.

[jameskerlin]

The knife is stunning in every aspect. The shape of the handle appears to be comfortable, not that you'd be breaking down boxes with it. And Until today, I had never heard a French blues singer, or knew such a thing existed.

[waldmeisterbrehm]

pretty nice blade!
the handle is breattaking!

cheers from cologne, germany

My condolences Jim, at least this beautiful knife will always be a lovely reminder of your mum and auntie.

[billruber]

Good present to yourself, absolutely pocket art, the belt pouch is also really well made .

[wattshappenin]

I haven't watched YouTube for a while but I'm glad I saw this. Lovely review of beer and a very special knife. Gorgeous looking scales. And always nice to hear a good customer service story. Thanks for sharing!

[davids]

Thanks for sharing this astonishing knife Jim. Money well spent I'd say, as you'll never get tired of enjoying such a beautiful and enduring piece. Fossilised mammoth molar has got to be as far up the 'cool scale' as it gets. I've got my eye on the Capuchadou's 'sidekick', the Chamois, although in a less exclusive material (dark ram's horn perhaps?) because I'd like to use it as more than an EHC (Everyday Home Carry), UK knife laws notwithstanding. It would be something of a step-up from my usual Opinel No 8! Good to know about the excellence of F-P's customer service, as I'd been contemplating making the trip to their Thiers shop to pick one out in person, which was going to cost more than the knife! Their Sperone is looking kind of nice too...

Thanks again, and I hope you get many years of pleasure from Le Capuchadou.
