Sebenza Tolerances?

[cutlerylover]

Tell them there is a forum where people go to talk about knives. A lot of these knife enthusiasts recommend the Sebenza for its high quality and individually fitted tight tolerances. Then refer them to Blade Forums and have them search using this: http://www.google.com/coop/cse?cx=011197018607028182644:qfobr3dlcra

for the countless threads on Why is a Sebenza better? and Why should I buy a Sebenza?, Convince me to buy a Sebenza. After doing a little of their own research perhaps this person will understand why soo many have such high praise for the Sebenza and its tight tolerances.

If this person is not willing to educate themselves then waist no more of your time on them...so you can post more videos on youtube .

great link! I am plannign on just gettuign a membership, but havign the search function now is awesome!

Seiko being the superior one in time keeping ability. I love my stupid expensive mechanical watches and I'd love a Rolex Submariner, but I have a Seiko Sportura Alarm Chronograph and I use it to set my Omega and Breitling lol.

I've been wearing the same Rolex Submariner Date for more than 35 years--both above and below the water, and shooting combat pistol matches with a hot .45 Colt. If it needs a clean I use soap, water, and a scrubbing brush.

When I started my diving, the Seiko diving watches were leaking in the deep end of the training pool.

The Rolex is now worth at least **15 times** what I paid for it new. It keeps time to a minute or so a month, and looks almost new.

Buy a Sebenza, use a Sebenza. It'll likely be going after the Benchmade is long gone. (BTW--I have several Benchmades, and carry my Sebenza or Mnandi.)

the fit,finish, the exact tolerances.the love and care that goes into a piece of equipment,whether it be a rolex or a sebenza. not mass produced. bottom line, Quality!!

Just as an aside, I wouldn't equate Rolex with CRK. I would consider CRK in a higher league of quality and hands on manufacturing.

Rolex make over One Million watches per year, and if that's not mass produced then I don't know what is.

I'm not sure this isn't an apples and oranges argument. I agree with rolexkid; on the other hand, both Rolex and Seiko will tell time, and both Benchmades and Sebenzas will cut. (But driving a Ferrari is bound to be more fun than driving a Cadillac, IMHO...)

Exactly my sentiments !! A mechanical watch, no matter what letters behind it, COSC, Chronometer, etc... can beat a good citizen or Seiko quartz watch for time keeping !I guess, buy what you can afford ! I have a Seiko, Rolex, Breitling, an Omega and abunch of other inexpensive watches and they all keep good time and I also set the mechanical ones from an atomic clock I have.
