I think it went live yesterday- have you seen it yet? Completely different from the old one and very cool- awesome work by their developer.
 
I enjoy the factory looks the most. Is a complete overhaul of the website. Very nicely done and simple to navigate.
 
Very nice. Navigation seems to require some redundant clicks, but nice layout and information.
 
Quite an improvement! Easy to navigate and presents their knives very well!! Love it!

Would love for them to add electronic ordering for both knives and accessories / parts. Just would make things a tad more simple and streamlined. Also inventory could be part of the ordering process. Just a thought.

Oh . . . and wasn't the Inkosi blade a little thicker than the small Sebenza?

Not great. The text is too big for my tablet, I can't see the beginning of some lines. The lettering is too thin and light, poor contrsst for reading.
 
Very nice web site,
but the colors of the new ti lock and other knives are way too light for me too see clearly on my comp. Is that how it is for you all.
Otherwise very cool. Maybe it is just me.
 
And here I was thinking a renewed Sebenza CCG Web Sight
I hate when I do that
 
The worst part of the whole site is reading that Chris Reeve stepped down from day to day operations and is semi-retired. This means 2 things. One in that even SuperMan needs a break and Two..... I am getting even older..... Ugh

There seems to be a poor contrast on the lettering and photos vs. the white background. Will probably get better in time. I think they were going for the light and airy kind of a website.. like Apple's website... :)

I was sad to read that too, but happy for the man. Ya never know, it could mean interesting changes are afoot. A softening of the stance against some of the things customers have been asking after for years may come under different leadership, but perhaps also a little less of the singular vision that made the product line unique and fantastic to begin with.

I'll be around to watch the changes, that is for certain. So far we already have a Ti-Lock with a silver spring and no 'vent holes', and we have a higher hardness on the S35VN, and we have stone-washed blades on the CGG knives. Who knows, maybe be year's end we'll have a damascus Insingo with wood inlays, and bead-blast slabs?

Most certainly Mr Reeve deserves a little taking it easy. I don't want to be working full time when I'm his age if I can help it.
 
Not the greatest site ever, but an upgrade for sure! I am happy that Mr. Reeve is able to step out and get some enjoyment, he has worked hard for a long time!!
 
Anyone able to find Lisa's Gallery on the new site....??? It's looking like Lisa does not do the monthly sebenzas anymore....??
