How many fine CRK folk out there own one of those Sebenzas with the leather inlays? They must be on the rare side. If you have one, please post some pics or opinions. I'm interested in what these knives are like.

I haven't seen many around. They are pretty classy in my book -- the leather is flush with or a little recessed below the Ti slabs on mine for a very low profile feel.

I had one for awhile. It was nice of course as it was a CRK but just did not appeal to me as I thought it would. I did not think it was a pretty as a wood inlay, but that is me.

Awesome Pic!! That would go nice with my Saddleback Leather Briefcase!! :D
 
I have a Blue Calfskin Classic. I have never carried it, so I don't know how the leather would hold up.

I inquired about these several years ago and the people that owned them liked them. The leather sits flush or just slightly under the scale, so not as prone to wear. They came in the light brown and the darker CRK blue as I call it. I have had the chance to own several over the years, but never pulled the trigger.
 
I think I saw one on the exchange recently... It looked really really nice. But I don't own one nor have I ever held one.
 
I've been looking on two computers for pics of my small leather that I sold in May of last year, but it's gone somewhere into the ether. Anyway, I never carried it, but it was a light brown leather and was very attractive; had a nice feel to it. I never carry the smalls, just buy 'em to look at 'em for a while and then sell 'em. I've had quite a few wood inlays, and this leather was as nice as any of those that I've had.
 
The Classic Blue Calfskin one up for sale in the Exchange recently ALMOST had my heart (& my wallet)...but I knew I could never allow myself to carry it. And I don't collect knives...I carry & use them. It was just too pretty & special for me to own. <sigh> :)
 
I bought a blue leather classic on the exchange earlier this year... It's a dark blue, almost black in my iPhone photo. The inlays feel flush to me, not recessed. I do admit to being a bit afraid to EDC it... but it sure is pretty.
