I actually didn’t remember that. But I do remember taking a bit of flack from some folks in the CRK sub back when, which is why I exited for a while. But, bygones are bygones. Haha.you probably recall I generally don’t prefer modified CRKs, but you’ve made me eat my words more than once. Did you do the mods yourself?
I started collecting CRK’s when 21’s were abundant and for good prices. The 21 is my absolute hands down favorite knife, and if I had to pick just one knife to keep…it would be hard, cause I have a few 21’s.


I do have other CRK’s that aren’t modded…that is for sure…but I do like to once in a while let my creative side wander and there is no better platform for it than the 21.
The engraved Classic was a joint effort between REK and Jake Newell and myself. We each did a few different things with Josh and Jake doing the majority.
The MOP inlay was done by myself.
And the Star Sapphine with holes was a joint effort between REK and a professional jeweller friend of mine.
Thank you so much for your uplifting words. I get that people don’t love modded CRK’s and I also generally don’t as well…but sometimes, the heart wants what the heart wants. Haha.
I’ve been enjoying this thread a lot since my return. Thank you all for being welcoming.
