Idaho Made

[misterjuiceman]

Well, among other things, I'm also a hypocrite. I emailed CRK to get a price quote but admittedly, did ask if the Idaho Made could be left off or relocated.

did they tell you it could be left off? that'd be the only way I'd buy a brand new Sebenza I'd say.

I think it is a major turn-off for me and will think twice before buying another CRK. Sorry, my money, my rules.

Thanks for sharing that juicy tidbit......

Larger pic!

I don't think it looks too bad in the context of the whole knife. The first close up shot was a bit shocking though!!

I think if someone posted a poll, it'd be seen that most people agree with you

I'll probably find out Monday.

Thanks, I just saw that along with one started by BBQ Boy, I think it was. :thumbup:

EDIT: Never mind, go with the Poll by Josh K. BBQ Boy had technical difficulty with his.

Oh my


Sebbies look best with nothing on the blade or scales. The MM's looked OK, but not this.

I agree, it is pretty minor when taking in the whole package.

It would have been far better were it a small, discreet stamp on the ricasso reading: 'Idaho, USA'.

Apart from the placement 'Idaho Made' doesn't make sense to me. It's grammatically suspect.

'Made in Idaho, USA' would be far more elegant IMO. Or simply 'Idaho, USA'.

In any event I think its high time CRK re-introduced the original Large Regular Seb. Isnt there an anniversary coming up or something?

Who is this guy or gal "Idaho" making these Sebenza clones?

Well, there is always my birthday...

I think it looks just fine, and being the designer and maker he's obviously welcome to do whatever he sees fit to them. Some folks clearly don't like change but I'd guess any negative effect it may have on sales will be fleeting. They make pretty much the best knives you can buy in my opinion.

 

[CUTiger3]

The stamping doesn't do it for me. I'll be looking for preowned Sebenza's in the future.

I rather have it "Earth Made".
