I think I'm Starting To Get It

I love Spyderco's knives, but I love CRK's even more. I've got a Sebenza and an Inkosi and I'm one happy camper. :)
 
You guys definetely are not interested in helping me save money... :rolleyes: I think i would rather have right handed version of a 21 with double lugs if I could find one I like, If im going to get my first CRK i feel it should be a classic. I also reallly really like the umnumzaan, it seems like a lot better value too, the texture looks better on the handle it has that interesting lock face, and if I understand it is a better cutter. are those pretty easy to open left handed?

If it's any help I only own one and I'm not sure if I'm going to get another no matter how much I like mine. I will say though be patient and get the one you want because if you don't you will get more than one and they're not cheap hang on and get the lefty.

Knife collecting is definitely addicting and worth it. CRK's are easy to love. A few weeks ago I bought my first, a Small Sebenza 21, as basic as it gets but it's a beautiful little EDC, so well made and designed. The drop point blade is lovely. I just added another Small Sebenza 21, this time with black micarta inlays and a tanto blade. Who knows what's to come, possibly a Small Inkosi. Or should I say likely to come.
 
If you are left handed you will probably be better served getting a left hand model. Maybe it is just me but I have difficulty opening a small Inkosi and large 25 (both are right handed) using my left hand. The cutout relief is small for the left hand thumstud on a right hand knife.

it was quite the same for me , i’m mostly collecting buck knives and have more than hundred of them and so said to myself i had to thinning the herd to my favorites ones, make some money to purchase others ... i’ve had some good feedback on crk knives but never had one in hands( i’m french and they are not popular there...) so thought they were a bit pricey... as you i’m sensible with good engineering and craftsmanship, good materials, and i myself using to machining stuff in my job so i know how hard it is to work on VERY close tolerances! and again as you i’ve seen the 2 parts crk shop tour with the (cute ) asiatique woman and straight away went mad about the crk work ! i purchased the dvd of it to watch in better quality and then purchased my first crk , small pj inkosi , 2 smalls sebenza pj , small 21 patriotic cgg and waiting for a blade hq’s carbon fiber mnandi.
i’ve sold about 30 buck knives to afford these crk but i’ve no remorse at all as they are awesome ! once you got one the sickness starting and never leave you i think. so if you can buy one you’ll never regret the money spent in it as that knife will be almost eternal !

hello,
thank you for your kind words! for the french in the cajun area it seems to be very different than the actual french spoken there from the experience of a friend of mine who went in louisiana i think and tried to speak with cajun people with no success unfortunately so they continued in english for far better understanding.... i have to experience that one day !
