I'm ordering a small Sabenza and am undecided between the regular and the Classic 2000. Is there a website that has good side-by-side pics so the blade shapes can be compared? The Chris Reeves site doesnt show a coparison.
Thanks,
Rich
 
Rich,

The blade shape is the same; it's the handles that are different.

IMO, don't fool around and get the small wood inlay; if you can.

You will be glad you did.

You can't believe how good that raised wood feels; like Glaasssss.

If the knife is for work; get a regular lightly used from the For Sale Forum and save yourself $50.

That's what I did and it's my every day carry.

DAMN, I was typing this and playing with my small wood inlay Sebenza and it kissed me.

That's OK I didn't lose much blood.

Does that make it used?

Boy is that knife gorgeous!!! I vow to one day own one!!! The saving begins!!!
 
Thanks Guys, but thanks to you Rick, I'm now torn between three instead of two. That wood inlay sure looks sweeeeet! (sigh) guess I'll have to post more of mine for sale.
Thanks again,
Rich
 
Buzzbait, it's ALL THAT; California Redwood Burl.

I can't bring myself to use the wood inlay small Sebenza.

I was closing it in my Left Hand with my thumb and the blade fell very lightly on my right hand first finger middle joint; it still hurts.

Rick, I feel your pain and words cannot express the the appreciation I feel for your sacrifice to the cause LOL.

I just went to a picture and it sure looks like the blades are a little different. (The classic 2000 and the regular "Plain". The plain seems to have more of an elliptical shape.)
Rick: It's quite a problem to have a knife that's meant for carry (like that wood scaled beauty), but you just can't bring yorself to put even the tiniest scratch on that glass-like finish. You'd better send that baby to my safe for "protection".

It's almost a relief when I read that I'm not the only guy who cuts himself. It seems to be a regular thing these days. Like some kind of a "streak".
Oh, and rub some "Hoppe's" in that cut. (Not really

) I'll listen. I bet I can hear you scream from here!

I just looked at some more pictures. It does look like the blades on the large Sebenzas are the same. (2000 and reg.) However, on the small Sebenza, there is a slightly different blade profile between the Sebenza 2000 and the Regular Plain. Anyone else see this? I KNOW I'm not seeing things. Just because I dream about the knives I want doesn't mean I see things that aren't there.

Will, I agree. There does appear to be a difference, which is why I requested pics originally. If,in fact, there is a difference, I'd prefer the shape of the Classic blade and the handle of the regular.
Anyone have both?........Rick?
 
Rick:
I sure feel lucky to have gotten my wood inlay. I had a feeling that this was going to take off!. Yours is such a beauty of a knife you shoudn't keep that poor baby in a safe! But your point is well taken. I used to carry my inlay everywhere including at night. At work I dropped a small amount of crazy glue on the wood. Thought I was going to die! But... sent it back to CRK and they fixed it up and only charged me for shipping! Now I only carry it at home on my day off and nothing else is in my left pocket. Like I said a beauty of a knife, I feel fortunate to have mine. Life is too short, enjoy it. Rick I know you have plenty of very nice knives, use that wood inlay! My bike has just over 50K miles, I'm gonna catch up to your Harley. In So. California I can ride year round.

Scott,

Sorry to here about your Sebenza.

I don't hide it away; it's always in front of me under the monitor where I can feel it up.

Scott, I also ride all year round (if the temperature is above 40).

What do you ride?

Rick:
I ride a Kawasaki ZX-11 Ninja. Runs great. I have a racing shop do the maintenance. I ride it to work 35 miles each way, Orange County to Los Angeles. I agree, below 40 degrees it gets pretty painful. I take the car when it rains and when I don't feel so hot. I have 125 HP at the rear wheel. 120-150MPH puts the world in a whole new perspective! Awesome, it hauls ass! And it gets 44 MPG when I ride it like a sane person. At 120MPH mileage goes down to a meezly 38MPG. What a rush!

You guys are making me feel bad. I'm currently without a bike for the first time in many, many years. Sold my last one, a 1500 Gold Wing and bought a Miata as my toy.
They're a kick but not the same (insert big sigh) Traded a beige money pit for a red one (can't have one without puting accessories on them can you?)

Rich, after my wife got her motorcycle license I decided I didn't want her riding so I bought her a Miata.

She loves it and hasn't asked for a motorcycle since.
