My new sebbie. Small 21 african blackwood s35

[kaosu04]

I just got this today and am extremely satisfied. I got a used large 21 about a year ago and have been trying to hold off on the small since. I wish I hadn't waited. I have never handled a small in person and didn't realize how tiny it is in comparison to the large. It's right at the minimum size to make it comfortable and still usable. The inlays are both beautiful but simple, just like the rest of the sebenza is so well known for. This is a brand new model born in january, so it has the idaho stamp, the new stop pin, symmetrical screws and the new blade steel. I have also noticed the thumb grip portion on the back of the blade has sharper edges than on my large which was born in 08. I've already cut up one box with it and the ease with which this cut through was amazing. I've a small collection of knives and used to think my mini ritter grip was an excellent slicer. But this sebbie is by far the sharpest knife I have ever handeled. All in all I am very happy with it and am glad I finally got a small.

Congratulations on your new Small Sebenza. Beautiful inlays!
I carry both my Large and Small Sebenzas daily and find numerous uses for each. It would be hard for me to pick a favorite between the two.

Looking good. I just recently found how well the inlays handle and just can't decide which small one I want!

I have to agree you really don't realize how small the small is until you pit it against the large.

Congratulations-nice score. While the small is a lot smaller than than large, I find it to be a great size to EDC. It is both light and the blade is easier to use on delicate tasks( such as pealing an apple). Enjoy

Congratulations on your Small Sebenza. I have yet to try one with inlays. I have had many plain and many cgg, but not an inlay yet. One of these days....lol.

Again Congrats, the inlays are super sweet and have some grain and character to them which only adds to their beauty.

In the regulars, I like the large the best, but in the 21's, I find the small works better for me. I edc a small plain classic which is basically the same thing and have used it for everything. Great knife.
