Just got my 2nd CRK, a large Inkosi. My first was a large 21, which I hope to keep forever. But I'm really liking this Inkosi. Something about it just speaks to me more than the 21.

Congrats! I'm new to CRK and trying out different options as well (Large Sebenza 21 Insingo, Small Sebenza 21, Umnumzaan, Mnandi). Hoping to check out an Inkosi in the near future.
 
Congrats. I hear you man. I love the 21, but theres something about the inkosi that I cant quite explain.
 
The small Inkosi is my favorite EDC, much easier for me to open than the 21.
 
Nice!

Nothing wrong with the 21 but the Inkosi is my flavor of choice! :)

You should consider adding a small left hand Inkosi for off-hand draw as backup to your large. Of course, a small 21 leftie would be a fine choice as well.
 
I only have a small 21 and a large Inkosi. As a leftie I really apreciate the standard double thimbstuds on the Inkosi. However I like how the 21 is sleeker and simpler. I also like that it has less finger grooves. That said they are both nice. I gotta get an Insingo though since the regular drop point blades Have really delicate tips I feel. Also the CRK tantos look wack in my opinion, and I usually love tantos.
 
It is a sickness, because now I'm obsessing over a Mnandi for reasons I don't know.
 
Hopefully it arrives early next week. Bought off the exchange here. I knew as soon as one can up, I'd be buying. Now I have to sell a lot of Spydercos.

You got a nice one! Definitely show that off in Anticipation!

I know what you mean about the 21. I feel it's the "purest" of the larges and have 3. But then I got my first Plain Jane--a large 25 and fell in love with that one too. Today I picked this up at my PO and am just blown away.

Of course I'm head over heels for my StarTac and snakewood Mnandi as well, so, no, it's not any one of them--it's all of them. But this Inkosi....
