Is anyone else ready to see some new inlay materials on the Sebenza 21's? Seems like the only thing available is Gabon, Bocote and Snakewood. Come on Chris, let's see some options.
 
He seems to be doing a few more-Cocobolo, box elder as well as CF and Micarta. I would like to see some in Iron wood again.
 
+ 1 for ironwood! Also I would like to see a return of camel thorn, it would look great on a small sebenza
 
How about a 25 annual with a larger inlay like the old style annuals. I want one of those.....lol. I would like to see camel thorn, spalted maple, ironwood make a comeback.....Out of what is available now, Bocote is easily my favorite.
 
I'd like a Lignum Vitae as well. The latter ones didn't have the best grain display but some early ones I saw look great. And just try and mess that wood up. You could throw that thing in with your keys and never worry. I worry about my Madagascar Rosewood sometimes but I'm sure it's all for nothing and would likely hold up to keys fine.
 
I would like to see different variations of the micarta inlays, like maybe natural canvas.

This is something I'd like to see too. The brown of the nyala micarta is an obvious choice. If you check out the selection of Micarta that Bark River Knives offers (kniveshipfree website for instance), the possibilities in Micarta are vast. I own a BRK Bravo in Turquoise Canvas Micarta, and a BRK Golok in Maroon linen Micarta, and the durability of both of those handles is exceptional, in addition to them being nice to look at.
 
No stone throwing, but I actually liked the leather inlay. A little different than your typical options.
 
The leather was different, but I personally didn't like that it was flush with the scale. I like the inlay to go above the titanium to give some width to the handle. That, and I really like the look of wood:thumbup:
I forgot about Lignum vitae when I posted earlier, that one can definitely go on the list!
 
Plus two ...or three for the micarta in other colors. Wood can be tricky. I get that but micarta is nigh indestructible. Have at it in every color that sells!

I agree with you on the inlay height. Better grip. Just liked the idea of leather. Mmmm leather.
 
It would be way too flashy probably, but I loooove the look of malachite. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1407029414.405573.jpg
 
Wow malachite. Didn't expect to see that thrown out. It's CIRCUIT BOARD like - or abalone.
 
Syringa

I quite liked the River of Fire damascus with the Syringa inlays.
