So for years I've wanted(and asked) Chris if he would do an inlayed large Reg with carbon fiber. He told me it was to hard too work with and toxic. Bummed as I was, I of course kept pestering him and Anne without success. When KnifeArt.com was awarded the exclusive on all CF handled version, it was cool, but not inlayed. At least they(CRK) were on the right track. I purchased one but was still wanting more.

Enter BHQ... I saw the first ones sell in minutes and was like dangit! Not many personal pix were posted here, at least I haven't seen em. So again, I waited and wanted. Till today. Jacob and Cam got two more in and I snagged mine.
What a great looking Sebenza. Everything that you all know about here, and to me, a bit more. The carbon fiber inlays are sweet, almost 3D in appearance. Along with the satin finished blade, blue stand off, and thumb lug, really adds to the whole package. My large Tanto micarta was like... WTF? LOL. This is going straight into my pocket, no safe queen here. I got the large for now and will probably get a small later.

For all you carbon fiber fans, this is the Seb to get. At different angles the CF almost looks like lightening strike CF, but polished. Again, very nice. My sorry pictures won't do this knife justice, but please enjoy just the same...

Man that's a beautiful knife. I definitely like it better than a Micarta Sebenza. But I'd probably still go for the KACF due to the significant weight reduction a full CF scale provides. If I were after an inlaid Sebenza, though, the BHQCF would certainly be at or near the top of the list.
 
Yeah, that's pretty damn sweet. Looks better than I thought! Thanks for posting pics.
 
I like the inlayed CF myself. Mine's on its way from BHQ, but I won't get to see it until back from vacation. Thanks for the pics.
 
Very nice. Don't know if I can hold out for a carbon fiber insingo!
 
Thx friends, luvin it. Maybe a Damascus blade to add later.
 
Great.. I was on the hunt for the KACF version, now this pops up..

If I got the KA version, can I purchase a Ti scale too from CRK?

If you are asking if you can purchase an additional scale with CF inlays, I'd say probably not. Like this KA versions, the BHQ are also exclusive. I couldn't hurt to call CRK and ask tho.
 
my bank account thanks you......now I need a small one of these! Thanks for sharing:thumbup:
 
That's a very sweet knife Bro, glad that you stopped by today so that I could check it out.
As good as I think that your pictures are they just don't do the knife justice, it's so very awesome in person, I can't believe how nice that cf is. Leave it to CRK to use high quality material and polish it up to look outstanding.

Only problem is that now I want one :)
 
I'm hoping BHQ gets a small Insingo version of this in. I'll be grabbing one of those for sure!
 
That's a beauty! That's the black on Ti look I wanted when I bought my ebony inlay. I'm jealous man!
 
Very Very Nice. The only CF I have ever had was a Hinderer Scale for my XM24. I did not like it immediately. But looking at the CF Inlay Sebenza, it looks very nicely done....I am more into the beautiful wood inlays, but for an EDC, I agree that a Micarta or CF would make an excellent inlay choice.

I agree that a Large Regular with CF would have been a special Sebenza indeed. I SOOO Wish the large regular was still being made, even if it was just as annuals.
 
I've always like CF on folders. Not just for the durability but the looks too. I have a 29 Knives bali on order which should be here in a couple weeks or so with CF inlays. This CRK Seb really hit the spot for me. I'm in the middle of a move right now and put the razor sharp edge to good use today.
 
Polished blade, polished Ti-scales - how it shows itself as EDC? I just ordered one and beware that it will be another safe queen..
