The way things are going, the knives may be more affordable than steak soon.If I could afford it, I would have a set of Inyoni as steak knives!
The backpacker reminds me of the older sebenza blade shape.The Inyoni is on my short list. I want to like the Backpacker but I'm still undecided, it appears to have a little too much belly and not quite enough point. The Inyoni drop point blade shape seems about perfect, would be nice if they made a bigger version of that....or came back out with a Nyala.
If you wouldnt mind, do you have a spine + tip shot?Everything about the Backpacker is fantastic! Best fixed blade I've ever held. View attachment 1851199View attachment 1851200

To each his own but I prefer a flat spine on a woods knife.+1 thanks. Previously that spine would've been nicely rounded. Details like that are what draws me to CRK. Shame it's flat here (and I don't think it's for "fire steel" purposes. It's not a sharp 90° either!). Other than that it does look very nice though. I'll get one when my 5 Nyalas have worn out... (the Nyala is the one with the nicely rounded spine...)
Can you please tell me which model your Ulticlip is. Is it 3+ or Slim 3.3?Everything about the Backpacker is fantastic! Best fixed blade I've ever held. View attachment 1851199View attachment 1851200
