I Need To Get Something Off My Chest...

[MostMenAreRuthless]

Dear CRK Brothers and Sisters,

I feel like I need to make a confession tonight. This may be upsetting to hear and could quite possibly cause some weeping, wailing, and gnashing of teeth. Before I proceed to put myself out there--consider this as a fair warning that this may not be for the faint of heart, weak of knees, or lowly in spirit. I have tried to overcome this "affliction" multiple times and have put forth a good, solid, concerted effort to try and avert having to do this...

I do not love the Mnandi.

There. I said it. It is part of cyberspace. It is out in the universe. You heard, they heard it, we all heard it. You can Love me for being honest, hate me for being truthful, or form an ambivalent opinion, or simply don't care at all. It is what it is and I have said what I came here to say.

Nobody is perfect.

 

[s2kpdx]

I agree, I really don't like it either...

Hey, no need for morally offensive or aggressively indecent outbursts. There could be children reading these posts.

 

[ALJR]

I confess also... I dont love it either.

Different strokes for different folks

I have 1, it's my "wedding or funeral" knife. Took it to a wedding last weekend, and used it to help a friend cut the tag off the sleeve of his brand new suit jacket at his mother in law's viewing a couple months ago. Other than that, it sits in the drawer.
I feel like it should be a $250 knife...

I have it far worse than you do. I do not love the Mnandi either. Worse still . . .

I do not love the Small Sebenza.

Woe is me!!!

 

[RiverRat84]

just Uhh man, my mind is blown, blown away.

 

[humblerodent]

I'm in love with Sebenza. Mnandi and I are just friends.

 

[ShishouMatt]

As long as you don't say that about the Sebenza.

I love the Mnandi.
I'm in deep like with my small Sebenza.

I do not love the Mnandi.

You monster!

 

[The Logical One]

It's ok, me neither. You know what else I don't care for? The Umnumzaan.

There... I said it.

Same here, for the most part. I have a wierd love/apathy relationship with it. So many beauties out there with wood grains that could make me drool, and I just look at and leave. Then a special one comes along, or I have a chance to get something as unique as matched pair of Honduran Rosewoods. The lefty and a righty.

 

[Maprik]

Absolutely nothing wrong with that!!!!! There are many knives that people are gaga over that I have no affection for. You're normal!!!! Since you've come clean I will too. I think the inlays on the Sebenzas look ridiculous. Like wood panels on a Porsche...

I love the Mnandi.
I'm in deep like with my small Sebenza.

This describes me as well.

Is this the confessions thread?
I don't like the large sebenza. It offers nothing for me that a small seb can't do and it doesn't fit into my smaller hands.

I love the Mnandi.
I'm in deep like with my small Sebenza.

This fits my tastes as well.

I must be dreaming!i thought everyone loved the mnandi! But why are they selling like hot cakes.... I better go back to bed,and wake up again.

 

[d.r.h.]

So, what happened? You seemed to be in love back in 2011 .... or maybe it was just infatuation. Did the Mnandi step out and cheat on you with some lower form of knife? And here I find myself in almost the opposite situation. I find myself becoming more and more in love with the Mandi and other smaller folders, and less enthusiastic about my large Sebbies and larger folders! Problem is .... when I look at my large Sebenzas and ask myself which I should sell off to fund other Mnandis ..... I can't seem to force myself to part with any of them!
