Okay, so medical bills are driving me into the ground and so I am having to sell some of my favorite knives. It seems I am only going to be able to keep a few. The ones I am surely keeping are:
-CRK Umnumzaan
-CRK Pacific
-Benchmade Ritter Griptilian 558 + 552 in M2 Steel
-Spyderco Civilian and Matriarch
-Leatherman Charge TTi



I want a Small Sebenza I can carry occasionally when the larger Umnumzaan isn't ideal. I have a bunch of Sebenzas and I have narrowed it to two: one is a Small Classic Micarta and the other a Small Regular Unique Graphic. I wanted a Small Clas
sic Micarta ever since they came out and I got it like maybe two months ago. It shows a decent amount of use but is functionally perfect. The value of this one is obviously decreased the most because it shows use. The Small Regular Unique Graphic is sooo cool looking and the Regulars are discontinued and the pattern is pretty cool. This one is brand new in the box so its value is higher. I am going to try to keep both but with the money I owe, it may not be possible so I turn it to you. Who stays and who goes? Pictures are below...

My advice would be to sell the ones that are easiest to replace when your fortunes improve. Even the Umnum. Keep the ones that are out of production or harder to find.

I really hope things turn around for you. Times are tough everywhere it seems If I can scrap together some more funds (like someone buying the knives I've got listed - :rolleyes:) I'll try and make purchases from that monster sale you have going. I like the Leo Damascus a lot.

Good luck - Steve
 
I miss the unique graphic, its definately unique and I would keep that one. You will be able to find the others easily, but the unique graphic is pretty rare. Its the only one I have ever seen. I like the dog paws, but I just do not like the 21 style. The 21 has stuck out twice with me, it will not get a third. The regular profile is just so much better in my opinion.
 
If I was you Id do exactly what you are planning to do The CGG is so unique

and you will never be able to replace it. The micrta is special to you and

probably cant be replaced either...not worth enough to sell as youve said.

Im new to the CRK family but Ive seen LOT of crk on varous websites....

I do have an Umnun,got it 3 weeks ago and cant stop carrying it!
 
I'll 4th or 5th what Dallas said, especially if either of those small regs is BG-42.
 
I'd sell whatever it takes to allow you to get better. After all, they're just things. Maybe keep one, and that's up to you.

Bingo!

Just start with the easiest to replace ones and work your way up from there. Just remember they are just things.
 
Sell them all, keep the one that's most special. Its just a bunch of steel and titanium and can be replaced.

Your good health, on the other hand, is priceless.
