This is an incredible piece by the great master of precision folders.

Roberto, you are one lucky man to own a blade of such beauty.

Hi Glen,

I thank you very much for helping me to show my new Sebenza to the
other members. As I told you before, I can send you really detailed
pictures of the wood inlay and the outstanding job of CRK.

I am waiting my second large wood inlay, a Maple Burl, which shall
arrive next Monday. Hope you can help me with this one too !

Take Care,

Roberto

Hi DaveH,

Get one !

The pattern of this wood inlay is really outstanding as you mention
it. It resembles a slab of Italian Carrara marble. Make me remember
the marble on the Empire State Building main entrance hall. The fit
and finish are impeccable, as is the dual finish of the blade.

Now I really know what tight tolerances means. It is impossible to
see any flaw between the titanum handle slabs and the wood, even if
you inspect with a high-magnification loupe.

With warm regards from Brazil,

Roberto
 
My pleasure Roberto. It is a very unique and dazzeling piece.

The free hosting that I use will size down any image to the size you see posted here so any higher resolution photos will not be higher rez when they post. The photos you sent are sufficiant. I can only imagine how impressive this knife looks when you hold it in your hand.

I will be happy to help you with your Maple Burl when it arrives. Email me the photos and we'll get them up on the forum.

All these wood inlays are making me want one too. :D
