Embark on my CRK journey.....

Ok, let's start with my user and soon to be user (when I eventually find the time to go camping)... this is the second Umnumzaan that I got, the first one I sold off when I got it coz I was finding it too big for EDC. I eventually cave in and got another one when I saw it, due to a great price and was lnib...

The Mountaineer I is my only fixed blade, purchased due to the very nice and influential review that kidcongo has shared here (will post link later). :)

Great post's, thanks. I purchased a Jereboam 2 back in 1988(?), to actually use when in the rugged outdoors. Now, 28 years later, a CRK collector, and fanatic. Still have the Jere!
 
Amazing collection and some beautiful pictures!
Really love that raindrop damascus and carbon fiber!!

Nice! I'd love to see some photos of that used Jere! Nothing is sexier than an old rugged and used CRK. :)

Thanks for the appreciation buddy! The photos are not that good actually as I usually just use my iPhone. Too lazy to use my camera.. The KA exclusive CF Sebenzas with Damascus are really something.. :)
 
Next up are my Sebenza 21's. I started with the Small Sebenzas and kept with it. There is just something I do not like about the Large Sebenza 21s blade shape.

The Large's blade is just looks too aggressive, as to why I sold my only Large 21 and do not own any more Large Sebenza 21 to this day.

The Large "Regular" blade shape on the other hand is purely perfect in my opinion. :D

I have been searching for quite awhile to get this "Think Twice, Cut Once" Regular Sebenza. I found a few in Instagram but their current owners just wouldn't budge.

Then one day, TNK was posting some of his NOS (new - old stock) Sebenzas that were actually forgotten / misplaced when they were moving office / warehouse. I scored 2 of my grails on the lucky turn of event.

Here is the Lefty NOS Small Regular Sebenza CGG "Think Twice, Cut Once" with S30V together with the UG ZigZag Sebenza... :D

Better turn off your PM's unless you want to get hammered. :p

Don't ask my how I know that. ;) But I do leave mine turned on, because the questions and Want-To-Buy's are fine with me.

Lol. I don't think anyone would wanna buy anything from this sets. They are pretty normal CRKs... :)
 
This is a short time-out of sorts on my current collection posts... Just confirmed with a very generous member here that this beautiful and wonderful CRK piece is coming home to SoCal...

Thank you Dennis for the opportunity.

***Seller's photo :D:D:D

And finally there are these guys... In my own opinion, i think the Annual Sebenzas are the best CRK has ever produced. They have the smoothest action and the best (wood & mammoth) inlays that was ever put on any CRKs.

Your collection is quite stunning Iceman, those are some great pictures. Of course, it helps when you have photogenic subjects.
