I was just wondering, are all the current Chris Reeve production knives on the same F&F level, or are the Sebenzas higher? When I hear about Chris Reeve's production folder F&F, it seems to always be about the Sebenza.
 
I think that's probably because the Seb is just the most popular and been around forever. There are more versions of it than any other model of CRK (handles, inlays, insingo, etc). It's the one most people have experience with. I know plenty of people are turned off by the aesthetics of some of the others like the Um and Tilock and that can keep people away. As far as I've ever seen, they're all at the same high level of fit and finish :)
 
From my own usage, I would say that the Umnumzaan, Mnandi, Hollow Handles (discontinued), Pacific, and all Sebenzas ranging from the initial ATS-34 models through the current S35VN 21 and 25 carry a fit and finish that is second-to-none. So I imagine all of their knives carry a similar level of notable quality, although I cannot speak to models not listed above. I think you hear discussion on the Seb most mainly because it is hugely popular for a knife in that price range.
