Hard use Sebenzas

I use my large Insingo for everything without fear. It sees weekly touch-ups to keep it sharp and I don't even take it apart much anymore. I little dish soap, hot water rinse, air dry, and a drop of nano-oil and it's perfect. The Sebenza is a true user knife!!

Use my large Insingo everyday in mud and water. Used to cut cable, strip cable, cut rubber gaskets and tons of zip ties among other things. No recent pics at this time, sorry.
 
I have had numerous benchmades and treated them exactly the same. Every one of those benchmades has developed blade play at the very least. My 21? Not a bit. It is smoother than the day I bought it. Still perfectly centered, zero blade play, lockup hasn't changed a bit, and it can shave the hair off of a gnat's ass. This 21 was also born on the same day that I met my wife.

What!? Is that fixable? i'm kind of worried about using my Benchmade now

I didn't mean to totally bash benchmade there. They are a great company and stand behind their product. I meant it to be a comparison between CRK and another well respected, quality brand that I have owned many of. CRK, in my opinion, delivers a second to none product.

Sorry Sir, I completely misunderstood you, i love how you use a knife and put them to real use! Stay safe and God Bless!

I found a NOS/BNIB, no Idaho stamp Small Lefty 21. Its on its way. Im not sure if itll become my EDC or not. Im planning on it, but I may change my mind once its here and pick up a new-new 21 for everyday.....so this is how addictions start?
 
Any more hard use photos? I love seeing all of these here. I don't get to use mine nearly as roughly, but they certainly all see a fair amount of use each day.
 
This is what happens to a Sebenza left alone in the wild... Forgot it on a window ledge on a job site. Thankfully I returned to find it camouflaged amongst its surroundings.
