Bead-blasted screws and pins

[holygoat]

Over Thanksgiving I ordered a new set of screws for my large Sebenza: they were getting a little stripped from a year of disassembly and reassembly. Given the option to try out matte-finished screws... well, I couldn't resist, and ordered the whole set (front and back, and clip screw).

Neat, huh? As my wife said, "it gives the knife an altogether more rustic feel". I find the juxtaposition of the custom silver thumbstud, polished blade, silver backspacer, and matte fittings to be quite appealing.

I have a small BG42 Sebbie from '99 with the old style clip and bead blasted screws. Don't know if they're original or not, but they still look bead blasted and I know the knife has been carried and used some.

@rolexkid: (I'm guessing CRK won't mind...) about $27, which includes the pins.

So far they seem undamaged from a few hours of table and pocket time I'll report back in a few months

They're available from CRK. Might as well ask about the Umnumzaan... it's possible they'll just bead blast a stock set for you.
