Number four just arrived

[kreole]

A large Insingo to add to a small Insingo, Starbenza, and macassar Mnandi :thumbup:

Looking it over, I noticed something different about the stop pin's sleeve (sorry for the poor picture):

Have the larges always had the two cuts along the edge like that, or is it something new? Someone made a thread recently where they got the stop pin's sleeve and pivot bushing confused (which, I admit, is something I've done), so I am wondering if this was done to help people differentiate between them.

Hi there, i have a small sebenza 21 about a year old, this one has a plain stop pin without the grooves,
i recently bought a new one in march this year and it has the same grooves as yours, the jimping is also coarser on the newer one,
i think they make subtle changes from year to year.

I got a large Tanto in march, and it came with the new style stop pin too. This is a recent change - before that large Sebenzas came with plain stop pins too.

That makes sense that it would be easier to differentiate the bushing and stop pin from one another.
