Saw a stranger with a sebenza and said hi

I'm in So Cal and other than one guy at work with an inexpensive one, I haven't seen any other knives of any sort. I'll share something I read here with my wife and she's like, "Oh, that's nice." It would be nice to actually talk in person to someone who likes CRK's.

I'm also in so cal and I have never seen anyone with anything nicer than a benchmade or spyderco. I carry a micarta 25. I guess us CRK fans are few down here.

One more SoCalian CRK fan checking in!

Keep an eye out for me if you're ever in the Pasadena area. I'll have a small cf inlay riding back pocket:thumbup:
 
I ran into a plumber on a job the other day who noticed MY sebenza, it was a first. He was carrying a TI military and sparked up the convo. Pretty cool.
 
I was getting my vehicle washed today and I looked over and there was a guy standing at the window. I noticed he was wearing shorts since it is a bit chilly today and I saw a SEBENZA poking out. I remembered reading this thread so I thought a pic would be cool. I had to go, but I wanted to say HI...
 
How could you NOT go and say hi, Howard? If I saw someone with one I'd walk a mile to say hi! Maybe I'm crazy..

Jon I go to the car wash all the time, I'm sure I will run into him again. I will say hi, lol
 
I was at CVS pharmacy and the clerk behind the desk noticed my sebenza in my pocket and struck up a conversation. It felt really good
 
I was in a shop today and overheard someone mention S35VN, so of course my curiosity took over and I walked over and had two firsts happen to me. I met a BladeForums member for the first time, and also held a Sebenza for the first time. It was BellaBlades, and his Sebenza 25. I have been wanting to handle a Sebenza for a while, and I can tell you I was impressed, both by the knife and Bella's great personality and trusting of a complete stranger to handle his knife. He introduced himself and I said that I recognized the username, and just handed over his knife. It may sound weird, but it actually made my day. I just wanted to thank him again.
 
That is awesome! I would love to bump into a member like Matt, he seems like a class act. I am always on the lookout for sure. I will be sure to mention BF just in case I meet a member. I think that would be pretty cool!
 
I guess the only downside to the story is that now I have convinced myself that I need a Sebenza, Just have to find some extra funds. (and convince the wife that I need another knife)
