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?

You have some knice knives there. Your question as to what keeps bringing us back? Compare that new sebbie of yours to the others in your collection; the result should speak for itself!

Thank you. You have a very good point. That sort of what I was getting at in my OP- even though I have other high-end knives and some more expensive than the Sebenza, theres no substitute for it.

I agree, no matter which other knives I might own, I'll always want one of them to be a CRK.

Oh, and pretty much guaranteed perfection when I open the box, I like that a lot!
