I've buying and using my CRK's for 6 years. I have more than I need but, you know how it is.

I've read for the last few years that the small Insingo is the best knife that CRK makes. I bought a lightly used small Insingo

in person from the seller last nite. This is a Fantastic knife. I could go on and on but, those of you that have this knife already know.

I'm with ya Craig. After 15+ years of about 25 Benchmades, dozens and dozens of Spydies from plain jane designs to high buck exotic sprints, I finally gave CRK a shot 3 weeks ago and the small CF Insingo was my first and it caused me to buy 4 more CRK's already... its already my favorite folder I've ever had and hasn't left my pocket since I bought it (well except for the night it spent in 4" of mud last week :/ ). Is the Insingo blade shape not perfect for just about any cutting tasks you run into throughout the day? I haven't compared the edge lengths of the Insingo vs Clip point small 21's but it seems like a ton of blade for how small the handle is, very well thought out blade shape.
 
Agreed. The Insingo is my favorite blade design of all time, not just with CRK's, but of all brands I own or have seen.

My Grail CRK doesn't exist: a Large Black Micarta 21 Insingo Serrated Raindrop Damascus.:thumbup:

What a cool knife that would be!

The only thing I'd change would be to take off the micarta and add some of Lisa's artwork. ;)
 
Ditto. The small Insingo blade is my all-time favorite EDC blade design: its slight sweeping belly, nice hollow grind, swedge that makes for a must functional and versatile tip. Knifeart's carbon fiber small Insingo is my favorite EDC.

Don't know if others find this to be the case, but I prefer the classic drop point to the Insingo blade on the large Sebenza. The large Insingo is a bit too broad and its tip too 'sheepsfooty' for me, rather than the modified Wharncliffe shape of the small Insingo...
