My design idea for the hypothetical CRK Sebenza 31

So I wanted to see what a simplified 21 would look like. So I got rid of the stop pin, hole and lanyard pin. I wanted to move the pocket clip to the middle but as you can see my photoshop skills are not very good.

I think you'd still need a stop pin somewhere. The only CRK folder without one is the Umnumzaan but that is because the lugs perform that function. The clip is fine where it is on a sebenza. The reason it's on an angle with the inkosi is just due to the way the tip of the clip aligns with the finger grooves if its straight. So I actually like the above, just add the stop pin back in. You can make it the inkosi version though.

The stop pin is still there. It's just internal.
 
Just personal preference but i prefer the non hidden stop pins, it gives the knife a more robust 'tool-like' look. I like seeing the anchor points of construction, otherwise it just look delicate. Also i feel if it were going to be a new model and a successor to the 21, it would need more than a tiny cosmetic change such as hiding a screw or lanyard hole to be worthy of a whole new model. Just my opinion tho.
