I have to say, even after owning a few different customs and higher-end knives, I always missed my small Insingo Sebenza that I got rid of last year. Recently, I was able to work a trade for a plain Jane Large 21 and man, it feels good to have a Sebenza again. The small Insingo was my first really high-end knife and now that I've had more experience with higher end pieces, I've begun to see the Sebenza in a bit of a different light. The small for me was my end all, be all knife- I thought it was the best thing in the world and no knife could kick it out of my pocket. Fast forward to now and I wouldn't consider the Sebenza my favorite knife, but yet, its still up there. Even though aesthetically it is much more plain/simple looking than some other higher-end/custom blades, there is something about it that's just satisfying. I think that same simplicity is the very reason I enjoy having one. It's clean, non-threatening, and just works well. No bells and whistles, just bare bones basics executed cleverly. Anyway, just figured I'd share my thoughts and post a picture of the Sebbie with the rest of the collection. Also, for all you die-hard CRK collectors, what is it about these knives that keeps you coming back to CRK? I know most of you also have plenty of other awesome high end pieces so what is it for you that makes them so addicting?
