So while I was at work yesterday trying to make enough money to feed my endless pursuit of CRK.. My favorite person of late (The Postman) in my case the post lady.. Dropped this package off at my humble abode.. now I knew it was coming and was tracking it on the net from my office but my boss, insisted that I provide him with the latest results of my labor.. Now you have to understand my anxiety because you have all been there before, haven't you? I know for a fact that she arrives everyday between 14:00 and 14:30 hrs.. like clock work!! in fact I often leave work to meet her if I am expecting a package.. But here it is Friday afternoon and I receive an e-mail from the boss asking me for information that I know will take me more than a couple of hours to provide.. DAMM!! And its Friday to boot!! Anyway when I finaly was able to get home this little jewel was watting for me. I'm sorry for the poor quality of the pictures but hey here it is for the whole CRK world to see.. I am liking it a lot!! Hope you do too!! :)

I had to chuckle at your story -- yup, been there many times! :) Now days, I'm lucky enough to have the option to telework, so I track them to the day, then stay home until the package arrives.

There's nothing like a P. Everything from the mirror polish blade, the way cool hand-jimped non-symmetric thumb stud, to the historical perspective -- it's just a pleasure to own and use. Congrats on a GREAT find!
 
In general, I can view all the CRK threads without getting green with envy. However, this thread is an exception. I am jealous and now hold a grudge against you for having something that I want and can't have. I despise you.

Side note: interesting misspelling on the box.
 
Wow!! I did not notice that!! its not a Sebenza after all its a Sebanza!! Cool!! that makes it even better!! You are good MMAR.. I'm sure someone has experienced this before right!! Come on check your boxes.. Seriously I wonder if the label was printed on a Friday?? Thanks MMAR!! You have an eye for detail!!

Yea it amazes me Fooj, I am really very lucky.. I only commute 13 minutes to my office and my Boss is 360 miles away.. But sometimes it seems he picks the most inopportune times to call or ask me for information.. Don't get me wrong he is really a great guy to work for, but him and I are on different schedules.. :)

Looks good!! I really like the P.

I had a similar deal on Friday. We have a gun and knife show going on this weekend, I slipped out of the office to get there right when it opened. Of course I arrive with a line around the building! Took me a little longer than I had estimated to find an Umnumzaan, by the time I was paying my phone was blowing up with employees needing my assistance. Normally I would have anxiety, but the zaan was like having xanax on deck! needless to say I am very happy with my Tanto Zaan.

Enjoy you Sabanza... She is a looker!
 
Thanks to you Dino!!
