Just got this puppy from Knife Art and I LOVE it!!! It only took 17 hours to get here with some free Tuff Cloth and an awesome zipper pouch. The guys at Knife Art are GREAT!
On with the show: I think the overall fit and finish is excellent. The picture is very decieving. The scales are brilliantly colored...beautifiul. The clip is also very nice. My only complaint is when I got it, it wouldn't clip into my pocket. The clip was SOOOOOO tight, that it made it impossible to clip onto anything. I had to take it off and slowly "convince" it to loosen up a bit.


For those of you who have been compairing the Sebenza to the Apogee, it really isn't a fair game. The only thing similar is the lock type. So, if you want to compare more integral locks, I'd toss in the Pinnacle and Elishewitz's new mono locks as well. They all really are nice knives. Now, if you still want to compare the Sebenza to the Apogee, here ya go:
Overall comfort: Apogee
Beauty: Apogee, even against some of the decorated Sebenzas.
Blade grind: It's a toss up, though I prefer the Apogee's flat grind and CPM 420V, not like I'll ever use either steels to know the difference.

Lockup: It's a toss up.
Locking mech. Sebenza, the heat treated lock bar face really makes for smoother disengaging.
IMO, the Sebenza, and the Apogee get a 9 1/2. Both offer GREAT customer service and are very friendly. The Sebenza could be avail. in a "med." size. The Apogee could use some work on the clip so it isn't so rough on the pocket. Either way, very small complaints in either case. I'd reccomend both for daily carry. Will this be the "Ulitmate Daily Carry" knife that I've been searching for all this time? Only time will tell. -AR
