Hi All,

I have a couple of user Sebenzas that would benefit from the slight weight reduction that CF would provide.

Does anyone know whether CRK sells presentation side carbon fiber scales for either a large 21 or 25?

If not, then can someone recommend an aftermarket maker that produces high quality scales without a requirement to send the knife for fitment?

Thanks
 
Call CRK and see, don't have a clue if they sell just the CF slab.
If you get an after market slab made, the knife will have to go, in order to get a correct fit and match.
 
I know that if you own a CF CRK they will sell you a Ti slab for about $200.00, but haven't heard if they will do it the other way around. i would guess not.

If you call and ask please let us know what they say.

All of the pimpers that I've talked to insist that you send the knife. I have one out now and it's been two months...oh well.

Holy crap! 200 bucks?

Yikes, if rather put that towards another seb
 
Luke from cuscadi has been great to me. No affiliation. Does handles for the ps as well. I think he can do you a scale in whatever you can dream of.
 
I have done about two dozen custom sebenzas scales in all types of carbon fiber and twill. I'm off my computer but can post pictures later. I would love to make some for you. Mine are hand made but I also fit them perfect to each individual knife for fit to match the factory scale. I have about 5 pics in my custom thread from. 3K, shred and blue twill.

Thanks for all the information and comments, guys.

I'll ring CRK tomorrow and ask, and then post a follow-up.

Matt, what kind of timeframe do you estimate from receiving the knives to shipping them back?
 
If you are not super attached to that particular knife, why not sell it and buy a new one with CF factory scales? That might end up being cheaper and will for sure be quicker.
 
One week, you could always send me a PM.
If you want better resale, I think one from CRK with the logo is best. But certainly many more options to choose from if you have one of us guys do it.

Lukes work is CNC and as good as it gets his Aero CF is also amazing.
 
Matt does some great work!
He'll treat your Sebenza well:thumbup:

Just wanted to clear up the Ti scale pricing, I spoke to CRK regarding a replacement scale for my CGG and was told the CF was an exclusive so they could not sell them but they could sell a plain large Ti scale, it would be $125 + postage.
 
Thanks for the good word blues. Sorry for the poor picture quality, it has never been my thing. At least not yet. Here are a couple to share. Just for some different Ideas of carbon fiber. For enjoyment purposes only.




 
I've done many cf and g10 Sebenza scales for people here and other forums.

I learned that in doing replacement scales by hand, it is fundamental to have the knife getting the new scale in my shop.

Maybe there's some new pimpers out there using 3D printers whereas maybe you don't have to send in your knife.

As they say, "your results may vary".........

Good luck with your search.
 
So I recently purchased large 22 Sebenza Insingo and wanted a set of micarta or glow in the dark carbon fiber or regular carbon Fiber scales for it if you are able or know where I can find such thing please let me know at bwallis52@me.com and title it as Chris reeves carbon scales or something so I don’t trash it thank you sooooo much!
