I ordered one yesterday in hopes that it will be the great knife that my large regular Sebenza has not been. I rolled the entire edge of my regular cutting off the end of a broken dog leash. I probably hit a rivet, but the steel on the regular is soft enough and the edge is thin enough (0.017 at the edge shoulders) to be ruined (but repairable) with just hand pressure. I'm hoping the thicker blade of the 25CF, coupled with slightly better, tougher steel, will solve that issue.
The CF looks more appealing to me than the plain slab of Ti, which gets scratched easily. I'm hoping the handle of the new 25 also improved the egos of the Sebenza.
My old regular is also at almost 100 percent lockup, despite getting just light use. And the edge is subject to very small microchipping. I've so wanted to love the regular, but just couldn't. The new 25CF looks much nicer, and the blade shape is so promising that I couldn't resist. Plus, the CF reduces the weight considerably.
