Terms:
-The customary "I'll take it" applies, with prompt pm to get my PayPal address.
-Prices are firm, not taking offers.
-PayPal "goods and services" only.
-Prices include fees (3.5%) and shipping, which is about 10 bucks the way I ship.
-I ship fast, via USPS with insurance
-I ship usually the same day or the following day after payment has been received.
-No trades, sorry.
-No sales outside the continental US. Sorry.
-Please follow the rules of the forum; if you don't know the rules, please read them, they are posted on a "sticky" and the Announcements on the main page of this sub forum, but hurry. or not.
I have a pair of lightly used large Sebenzas; both have "scotchbrite" finish, I got them like that, so they have obviously been carried, but they can be easily restored to new by a SPA service, which is free as far as I know.
Sorry for the long write up, but I have to describe what I'm offering the best I can so you know what you're getting, if you get it. I hate lies.
That said, I'm not making any money on these, I'm actually losing fees and shipping, but what the heck, it is what it is, I need the cash.
NOTE: The last knife to the right is not for sale, which is a large 21 single lug, I'm including it in the shots so you can see how the scotchbrite finish looks, as well as the lock up, compared to a basically new knife with a few scratches but almost perfectly blasted scales and factory lock up, that will help you decide. IMO they look pretty good and they won't scratch as bad anymore, or at least not so obviously.
Both blades, on both knives, are in excellent condition, according to the previous owners they were only stropped, and I believe it since they look like they still have the original edge; and they are very sharp.
Both have smooth action and the lock up is within specs, which is 50 to 75% according to CRK; the large 21 double lug looks like it's right at 50%, the Insingo is about 70% by my estimation. The last on the right, which is not for sale, is at about 50% and it's almost new.
Both have a little stick to the lock up (the last to the right feels the same), but the Insingo is a little bit more pronounced, so far I haven't handled a frame lock that doesn't feel like it sticks a little, but that is (I think) the nature of the beast, friction comes with metal rubbing against metal and you'll feel it when unlocking the knives. If I'm wrong about this (I'm wrong all the time) then let me know so I learn something new.
Both came without lanyards, so I made one for each, you can remove it or do whatever you want with it, but it's there. You don't have to take the knife apart to remove it, just undo the braid and pull the cord, same thing to put it in, at least that's how I did it.
Both have the original boxes, wrenches, etc. but the 21 double lug is missing the cloth and the sticker, so I'm throwing in an original CRK lanyard to compensate for that, I hope you like it, they're about 12 bucks or so depending where you buy them.
-Also, please be patient with me, I broke my back at work a few years ago and sometimes I can't move, sometimes I have to lay down, and sometimes I sleep at odd hours of the day, I wake up late, depending how bad the pain was during the night, I have to take a lot of pills just to function so if I don't respond to your pm's right away, don't freak out, I will respond, I promise. I'm not going to scam you or jerk you around, my name and reputation are valuable to me. Yes, I talk too much sometimes; so thank you for your patience and for reading the whole thing; I really appreciate it.
Pictures: (finally): (I took them with my phone and some look brighter than the first
