Got home this morning from work, and had two packages waiting. Now the question of which one to carry first.....

A lot of people seem to not like the way the inlays on the 25 look. I personally think that the micarta inlays look fantastic on the 25. In my opinion, their shape flows perfectly with the shape of the 25's handles and overall profile. If anything it enhances the overall aesthetics or spirit that I believe the Sebenza 25 conveys.

I'm curious to know how you would compare the carbon fiber 25 to the micarta 25. How noticeable is the weight difference when handling and using them?
 
I thought I was the only 25 knut that has more than one. Sweet pair, I'm carrying the CF right now. At first, I can feel a noticeable difference in weight and feel. But, like everything else, I get used to it and it's not noticeable any more. When, I rotate and carry the micarta inlay, it feels so much more heavier and the cycle begins again.

I was on the fence about the inlays, until I saw them in person. I think they flow very well. The Micarta one "fits" my hands a little better (i'm 6'4" with decent size hands) As far as the weight difference between the two, barley noticeable in my opinion.

Thanks.. Its an addiction, my plain is at the "spa" now. I'm glad I'm not alone having multiple variants of the same knife. Up next Wilson Combat version!
 
Nice choices. I love my 25 micarta and I may be getting another one once the Damascus ones start to show up.
 
I love the 25's I have a plain lefty and could not resist the micarta inlay and the CF both righties but with double lug, of course.
when I get out of my laziness with a camera I'll post pics. of my lefties with a few righties.
 
Nice set! I personally like the carbon fiber, I have mine in my pocket right now:thumbup:
 
Why chose carry them both.

I carry a 21 large basket weave snake wood and a 25 carbon fiber everyday.
