Over the years many fine Sebenzas have come & gone. Annuals w/Damascus, Many fine blades. Even lost a Small Damascus Regular on a hike (ouch!)
Leaner times has my first Sebenza, a Large Regular (BG42), and his smaller brothers;

That Plain Damascus Small has been EDC'd for 4+yrs, the Insingo recently kicked it out of my pocket. Both wore the same scale by Barry H.

Very nice collection. I take it the damascus blades hold up well against use then huh? 4 years is a long time for daily carry and a knife to look that good still! That Insingo with the custom scale is beautiful.
 
Thanks Group.
"MB" my initials.
The Damascus holds up very well in a EDC environment. Holds an edge for quite a while, almost as long as the BG42 blade on my LgReg.
That Barry H scale is just plain beautiful, It went on the plain Damascus 21 for several years, but when I wanted to try the Insingo blade for EDC, had to have that scale on the new blade.
Wish he was still making them...
The brute of the smalls is the Micarta Tanto that blade is so much stronger at the tip then the other 2 grinds. What an Ice pick it makes!
 
Very nice collection! You cover a lot of CRK options in a same group and cover a lot of ground between the BG42 and the custom scale.

No kidding, usually I open the safe for a firearm related fondle, and notice a different Sebbie and trade her for a sister. Between the Insingo, Tanto, and Damascus 21, each blade has it's better uses, surprisingly the Insingo is the poorest slicer out in the yard, ie: Plant/palm trimming/pruning, the Tanto has the strongest blade, and with those Micarta handles is the most used. And then there is the great Damascus blade that not only stays very sharp thru use, but looks so great.
All the time my Lg.Reg, smiles at me, He has had more pocket time (yrs ago) then all the others combined. Usually only take the Lg Reg now when I'm going camping or backpacking, but a STrider SMF is fighting (poorly) for backpacking EDC carry.

The Sm UG with Damascus is a designated safe princess...
That Lg.Reg has worn thru so many Levi's back pockets, my wife & daughter always noted the unique wear spot/hole. Then I discovered front pocket carry..
