I really like the top one, it will be neat to see the other side. Someone here needs to buy it..
 
Posted on CRK Website:

First time ever premiering this month is a Decorated Backspacer on these knives. What does it look like? - It will be a surprise to the new owner!!

Man. . .I've always wondered what a backspacer would look like on a Sebbie ! And decorated to boot !

Yeah. . .someone. . .hurry up and purchase one of Lisa's Pick's ! Then post a pic, of the backspacer, here for all to see ! :D ;) :D

That small is sweet ! :)
 
anyone buy this yet!?! I hope backspacers will become an option in the near future
 
Every month I hit the website to see Lisa's Picks. They are truly works of art.

I would love to see a close up of the insert in the small one. Ditto on pix of the decorated backspacer.
 
I stopped by CRK this morning while I was in Boise on business. The Small Lisa's pick has been sold. I did take a look at the Large and I can see why they didn't post the pic. Lisa and Bridget have been experimenting with anodizing and scoring the normally gold, silver or blue backspacers and have come up with a nice little custom touch. Without a sophisticated lighting setup like Jockes digital pictures won't do it justice though so that's why it hasn't shown up on the CRK website. Maybe if you are lucky Jocke ended up with the small and we can see some of his spectacular photo work ;)
 
My sebenza is on the way (tired of waiting for the Dominator). The engraving on the fancy sebenzas is machine work. I wonder if anyone has any experience with hand engraving the titanium ? Not an expert but I like to decorate my knives and things with simple engraving.
 
Excellent idea mete ! Actually. . .there are a few engravers that will work with titanium. The first that comes to mind is Billy Bates.

I think that a custom engraved backspacer would be too cool !
 
Correct me if I am wrong but the backspacer is that (typically) blue anodized spacer at the back of the frame. It is one of three bushings used in assembling the Seb.

Cheers.
