KnifeArt CF Inkosi Questions

[BD_01]

As of late, the (presently sold-out) Large CF KnifeArt Inkosi Insingo has been haunting my dreams.

I’ve heard that the CF scaled Inkosi’s can occasionally go off center, similar to the 21’s. For those with experience, are the off-center knives that way out of the box, or do they migrate there? If they migrate, how long did it take to start, and when did it stop?

Thanks all. It’ll be a big purchase for me, so I want go into it well informed.

I've had a few CF 21s and a 25 and all were dead center and never had issues drifting. I have a small 21 still and it's a heavy user and it is perfect.

I had a L21 insingo. It was a hair off center. It started out nearly centered and moved a bit over time, and stopped. It never touched the scale, and wasn't too bad, but you could see it with the naked eye.

Thanks to everyone that took the pole or left a comment.
Anyone else out there with a CF scaled Inkosi willing to chime in?

My large CF Insingo is centered. Same for my small CF Tanto. It’s a different story when I use the CF scale and stop pin on another blade and lock scale.

Very nice knife. I use it nearly daily and it hasn't moved yet.
About 6 months now. Carry it in a pouch as it is a priced possession.

No CF Inkosi for me (yet), but I have a well-used small CF 21 that hasn’t moved at all after several years.

I am pleased to see this thread because I finally pulled the trigger on a carbon fiber 21!

I’m still fighting the urge...many compeeting expenses at the moment.

BellaBlades , I’d love to hear about your impressions (I know we’ll see pics ).

Sounds good. You will certainly hear about it. Ive been fighting the urge for a while. It's my 4th 21 but first carbon fiber. I like the idea of 3.7oz vs 4.7oz.

OTJ I should not feel it as much and the show side should hold up well.

Find out soon I suppose.


There will always be pics. I may not have time for full reviews but a picture speaks a thousand words!

Have both large CF's and no problems out of box.

Smoothest 21out of box I've ever owned. Dead center and a very nice pattern .

The knife is so much lighter in the hand and pocket. It's perfect really.

Already spent the day working on the roof installing an exhaust for a buddy.
