i owned a zaan for months, i was dumb and sold it to fund a strider.... needless to say thats gone and i need another crk.

i liked the zaan but now im interested in a sebenza


i know all the features and differences in the 25, but i dont know if i want a plain 25 or a cf inlayed 21 insigno???? please help me.
its such a difficult decision :/

 
i carry it at work. usually boxes, tape, i pick the vegetable garden everyday with my knife. just very average edc tasks
 
Then that's a tough call I'd say. One is better for slicing, and one is built heavier duty wise. But both will handle your edc tasks very nicley. I own both. But I like my 25 a liitle more right now. Maybe because I'm still waiting for my Insingo to get it back from CRK.
The insingo has a distinct beauty to the blade profile.
The 25 would be right up your ally from having the Zaan. Definitely looks like you do manual labor... Your hands look just like mine all callused up!!!
 
i have wanted a 25 since the anniversary edition came out, but these cf inlays are so nice! especially with the satin finish around the inlays. but on the same token i dont abuse my tools but they do get dropped, slid accross metal tables. and sometimes they go to work. i am thinking a plain 25 would be better because i couldnt scratch and chip the CF. and if it goes to the spa it can look brandy new
 
While I have never handled an Insingo, I do have a 25 and it sounds like the 25 may be the way to go for you since you anticipate the scales taking a beating over time. You could get the 25 reblasted at some point and it would look brand new.

I lost my large regular Sebbie about 2 months ago and was sick to my stomach having lost it. I like the large regular because it seemed to have a deeper belly and more of a drop point than the more pointy Classic and Sebenza21. The Sebenza25 seems to have that large regular shape too. Found one and haven't looked back since. To me, its much more technically advanced and the feel is cleaner. Still miss my large regular, but the Seb25 help ease the pain! Trust me,....you'll love it. And btw, I sent you an email to see if I can't help you unload the Division Flipper ;)
