I have been thinking about buying either a small or a small classic sebenza to use as an EDC, then I saw the Buck Mayo and became interested. Although I am mostly a Spyderco fan I have more than my share of Buck Knives, love my Strider Spearpoint. What I want to know is how the Mayo TNT (Ti handled framelock S30V version) compares to the small sebenza and does the Mayo allow for either tip up or tip down carry.

I wish somebody other than Spyderco, Benchmade, Chris Reeve and soon and very soon Boker :) would make more knives that carry tip up, Buck for instance :D
 
Compares in what way?

The Buck has a little larger blade than the small Sebenza, it is slimmer and lighter as well. Better looking, too, in my opinion. The Sebenza is "beefier". The Buck is tip down carry, and it can't be changed unless you drill the handle.

The blade of the Buck is ground thinner, especially towards the edge.
 
IMO it's mandatory to file off the little "horns" especially on the spine side. If I ever get one again I'll do that.
 
Well I wanted to know how the tip carried. Also which on is more comfortable in hand. Finally, how do they stand up to tough use and how slim are they?

The vast majority of our current line up of knives are tip up. The Mayo is an exception.
