Damascus Insingo?

I emailed CRK yesterday to ask a couple questions. I asked them specifically about a damascus insingo and this is the response I received.

"We currently do not make Damascus blades with the Insingo blade profile, and we have no plans to make them in the future.
You have the option to order a Small Sebenza 21 with a plain titanium or Micarta handle and have an Insingo blade.
Or you can order a Small Sebenza 21 with any of our handle options and have a Damascus blade.
We consider the Insingo a "working" blade and the Damascus is a more "formal" blade."

So i think someone with more organizational skill than I should start some kind of petition/signup to give to CRK. We need to make this happen!

^This sucks! Cmon CRK!? A Damascus Insingo 21/25 would look amazing!

Im ready to sign a petition and then buy as many flavors Damascus/Insingo i can afford.
 
So much for KA's "confirmation" on Damascus Insingos last year...Glad that has been cleared up by CRK now.
 
Thanks for asking.
It might not happen now, but one can hope.
Would you announce a dealer exclusive through the grapevine?
We are a zealous but small bunch here.

If really like to see this happen. I'd say if anyone has a chance at pulling this off it'd be KA. Since they helped design the insingo to begin with I'd say they have a good shot at it.
 
I heard through the grapevine that its coming.....!!!

I would like to be connected to that grapevine..... but why would Chris Reeve Knives respond to my email earlier this month stating that they do not make Damascus blades with the Insingo blade profile, and they have no plans to make them in the future.

Seems a very emphatic statement.

I would definitely buy a Damascus Insingo. When I first started drooling over CRK products I immediately came to like the Insingo style and ever since then have been torn between wanting that blade and wanting a Damascus Sebenza. If they merged the two then I would definitely be in.

Also +1 on wanting other inlays for Insingo blades, I would mortgage my house for a Damascus Insingo with CF inlay. Wood inlay would be a close second for me. I know Blade HQ offered the Insingo/CF Inlay but I think they have been OOS for a while.
 
How about a 25/Large Inkosi Damascus Insingo with high flat grind? While we are at it, I'd love a Tanto 25, damascus or S35VN.
 
I'd buy two Large Damascus Insingos any day of the week, and twice on Sunday.
 
Last I heard it was a definite no go.

But the only way to know for sure is to contact CRK...and even then, they could always change their mind.
