@monger4142, frenchmade -I'll see if I can remember how to put up pics, I read the boards alot but don't post much. Here is a link to the thread I alluded to earlier if it helps:
http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/984655-Comparison-of-real-large-Sebenza-21-vs-new-version-of-fake(with-many-pics)
Mine is pretty much the same as the one mcraft has, except it is even lighter (it also came with the black lanyard.) It may just appear lighter because both the blade and scales on mine are polished, instead of the matte/stonewashed look of the one pictured. I think the scales probably are ti, they aren't magnetic, and the knife feels too sturdy/hefty for them to be aluminum.
@killgar -I hear you, I'm not going to lose it. I definitely intend to hold onto it now. I just still don't know if I want to fix it up to make it EDC worthy. I'm sure with some effort it could turn out to be a great knife, but I'd still know I was carrying a counterfeit product. If it didn't have the "CR" logo, I'd probably already be working on it to make it better.
Maybe I'm overthinking it. Anyone know the specs on the screws so I can order replacements?
