Darn Sebenza. I waited forever to get one, kept it a month and sold it last year. In the meantime like most of us pick up dozens of knives and while they are all great I missed my small 21 even if I tried to convince myself I didn't. I traded some pretty nice knives with more value than the Seb but I'm OK with that as in the end, it's still just knives in a living hobby.
So I'm back in the CRK fold and will try and stay so for a while. :)

I didn't even like the Sebenza when I first saw one, now after owning quite a few and carrying a CRK for 6 years or so I can't imagine being without my faithful companion; glad you scratched that itch and found yourself owning a Sebenza again- congrats.
 
As I get older (52 in a couple weeks) I find myself wanting nicer tools. I still enjoy buying/selling/trading quite a bit, but some of the knives have come & gone without as much as a week's pocket time. I simply won't carry a knife if it doesn't absolutely grab me regardless of current hype. The Seb is obviously a classic and not the latest super-duper. I also like the plain-Jane Sebs as weird as that might be to some of the collectors.

I'm the same. I usually prefer simpler styling. Can't get into the more tricked out Sebbies. I do like the micarta inlays though. I'm still pretty hooked on the Insingo blade shape, but that new 25 is quite nice. In 29.5 years, my house will be paid for. Should have more spending money then :D
