I'm thinking about buying my first CRK but still can't decide on which one to buy. I'm hoping something posted here can help tip the scales towards one of the three.
Here's what I think I know:
Sebenza - the knife that put CRK on the map. Simple design and elegant.
Inkosi - controversial to say, but the "upgraded" version of the Sebenza. The blade is shorter and thicker, and the grip shape may not be for everyone. For reference, I have average sized hands.
Mnandi - the "gentleman's knife" or "office knife." Sleek, elegant, and smaller than the choices above. Can't be put through as much abuse, but to be honest, I probably won't be using the knives for more than opening boxes and cutting a few simple things here and there.
At first, I thought I wanted the Sebenza without the micarta since it was the first and simplest. Then I learned that the Inkosi was smoother and was the "upgraded" version. Last, I discovered the Mnandi, which is so different from the other two. Again, practically speaking, I probably don't even need a knife.
What do you think I should buy?
