These aren't well-matched like Blade Commander's handsome snakewood pair, but they're both wood-inlayed 21's. The large is a 2009 pre-Idaho in Bocote--my safe queen--and the small with Cocobolo is more of a user. It made me nervous just to take the large outside and set it on that rusty oil drum. :nightmare:

Those wood inlaid Sebenzas are gorgeous to look at. I may end up getting a large 21 with wood slabs just to see if I like it any better than the 25. Anyway, found a couple more pairs, with matching fixed blades for company 
527 Mini Presidio Ultralight
5300 Auto Presidio
155 Fixed Presidio
551 Griptilian

Can you tell me anything about these knives? I just came across one that my wife's grandfather had that is the same type but I had never seen them before.

So these aren't a pair, obviously, and aside from being Wilson Combats they aren't even the same maker. There's also not a lot of size difference, but like the title says--it's Wednesday, so whatever.
Chris Reeve StarTac
Les George Eagle
Fox UltraLight in Cocobolo
I picked up the UltraLight on a family vacation to Barcelona back in March. There's a beautiful traditional cutlery shop in the Placa del Pi called Ganiveteria Roca--knives, kitchen cutlery, table ware, razors & shaving, scissors & barbering, etc--where I picked it up. The prices aren't cheap, but the shop's just a pleasure to behold. The knife has the WC name and logo but is marked a bit differently than the ones you get here from Wilson Combat. It's one I treasure as a blade and for the memories.
This pic is better than the other one I put up yesterday:

Nice Insingo pair, Kalsu! I've been interested in that blade shape for a while. Do you find it useful?
My Sebs all have regular blades. If I get one it'll be a large and I'll have to decide between the Knife Art CF or Micarta inlays like yours. Yours are very appealing.
