CRK Brothers and Sisters,

I have a few Sebenzas in various flavors, but this is my first LARGE 21 and it is in my favorite configuration--Plain Jane Insingo. I received this in trade from a fellow forum member and thought I would share some pics. The handles are in excellent shape, the blade has quite a few shallow scratches, and it may only be my OCD, but the tip appears to be ever-so-slightly off-center, but it could be a slight uneven swedge grind because the blade appears centered in the handles. Nevertheless, I bought this one to be USED and I am planning on sending it off to another forum member for some customization--I will post those pics in this thread in a week or two when I receive it back. So, without further ado--the Large 21 Insingo:

What are you having done? Or is that a secret? :)

I'm so jelly of your Insingo. I wasn't even aware of them before I got my large 21 a couple of weeks ago, not that that would have changed anything. I got mine in a great trade. The knife I traded was worth more than a new Sebbie, but I love mine and the deal was evened up with my first high end flashlight.

Anyway, I'm rambling. Congrats on your new knife! It's lovely. ;)
 
Congrats on a great score!
I got mine back in February and am hoping to snag something really special at Blade next week.
It has been really difficult not buying over the interweb, but I want to see it in person first.
 
Very nice! I've had a large Insingo for over a year and I love it. Great choice.:thumbup:

I saw that in your SIG line--maybe I will HATE the customizations I am having done and you can pick it cheap from me!;)

Thanks Ken--not my first 21, but my first LARGE 21! I have been carrying my small Insingo today and it seems tiny!

Glad to hear!
 
Great pics!
Out of all of the CRK's that I've had and have the Large Insingo is my favorite.
I'm looking forward to the pics after you get it back.

Thanks for sharing.

Well "high end" is a bit of a stretch. Especially when writing in a CRK forum! High End for me then. :D

Just a humble Fenix TK15.
 
Very Very Nice...!!! Congrats on your first large 21. It being an insingo to boot makes it even more special. I love the look in a plain jane large insingo and will definitely get one soon.

I find myself saying those words quite often when viewing this forum. . . ;)
 
Congrats to your cool knife and thanks for sharing the pixs.
BTW, what's the pink thing in the background - alien brain?

I've had one large Insingo, but, like most of my Sebbies, I buy 'em and sell 'em without ever carrying them. Yours is in great shape, and I especially love the perfect grind lines on that shot of the bottom of the blade. That often tells you a lot of the skills involved.

Just another reason to love CRK's.

Question: What is the reasoning for buying/selling and not carrying (if you don't mind my asking)?
 
Well folks. . . I have had my modded Seb in hand for a couple of days and I wanted to share love and get some opinions and feedback. I know it won't be for everyone, but I am open to any and all opinions.

I need to give a SHOUT to Randy (So-Lo) for the work. He has amazing attention to details and care--go check his Youtube video about his process and you will see what I mean. Plus, he is friendly, knowledgable, real, easy to work with a nd a true gentleman.

I present to you: my NUKED 21!
