Help to identify

[hkingdom]

Hi, I'm usually on the BUCK FORUM, but I acquired this knife recently, know very little about it, and would like to have some help to identify it. It is 3 7/8" long closed and has the number 163 stamped on it. Any help would be appreciated. Sorry about the quality of the picture. Thanks.

It appears to be one of the First Small "Regular" Sebenzas, I believe that the first 200 were numbered. Manufactured late Summer thru Winter 1996..approx.
Very Nice!

That is a Chris Reeve Sebenza # 163 of 200. A very nice knife you have there and well out of production.

Thank you. Do you know what steel was used in the blades at that time?

Wow, I forgot about the one sided screws/stop pins. I remember having to flip the pins around so that the screw side matched the pocket clip screw leaving the non-clip side all nice and flush
