I agree.

Post some pics up of all them knew blades guys. Gotta love the spine and swedge on the umnum.

Don't you just love the shape of the blade on the Zaan. I can't get over it and it just really does it for me. Plus, the polish job along the entire top edge of the blade is amazing.

I love the blade, I shall christen this knife as inspired by you, Sir Stabby-stab-stabs-a-lot.

Dude!

You know a knife (or any other object) really captures your attention, when you start assigning them affectionate names. Like the Sebenza = Sebbe. Or, the Umnumzaan = Zaan, Umnum or my personal favorite = Sir Stab-a-lot or just Stabbe. So far I only own 1 Sebbe & 1 Stabbe.

I'm definately calling my Zaan Sir stabby since he just bit me, and this is the first time in over a decade I have been bit, and this is not even 12 hours owning the knife.

This thing is a beast. What's the zulu word for beast?

Google says inkomo. I'm naming this thing inkomo. I'm putting it away before I get hurt. Again.

Love this post.

I think I'm gonna call mine Bully(or atleast the Zulu translation). I feel like it'd beat up my other knives

I agree, I can't wait to have a face off between my Zaan and my Pacific who should arrive soon.

I would love to hear your thoughts comparing the Umnumzaan to your large regulars after you have spent some more time with the 'zaan.

Without a doubt. I'll tell you this, after a day of owning, my steel sickness is so deep I already want one more, I'm thinking a WC or one without the lockbar stabilizer, just to see if it makes any difference.

After getting any knife it goes directly into my pocket for a week at the very least. So we'll see.

I can already tell it will be a harder comparison because it most definitely is not a Sebenza. As expected I love everything about the Umnumzaan and can't wait for the take down/cleaning kit to roll in.

Showdown = Arrival of the Stabby vs. Jabby.

I feel ya on the steel sickness. I'm about to receive my 4th discontinued Sebenza (three of which are NIB) for a total of two large regulars, one NIB small regular, and the soon to be NIB small P sebenza. I don't know if I will keep them all, or just use one or what. The fact that three are NIB makes it a little harder to bring myself to use them so they might just remain safe queens for a while. My user EDC large regular hasn't left my side since I got it.

I still want a large BG42 regular, Ti-lock and the Umnumzaan! I'm not even going to look at the mnandi (promising myself to stick with non-inlays).
