Sebenza with 6 1/2" blade!

[Mr Jody Hudson]

I really like the blade design and lock design as well as the quality of the Sebenza. However, I like a 6" to 6 1/2" blade in a handle that is no longer than the blade.

Is there anyone that makes such a knife? I currently use my Cold Steel XL Grand Voyager and it is almost large enough but I'd rather have a liner lock.

I have not been able to find anything like the above.

Is it possible that I might have missed something????

I think a Cuda Max has a 5.5" blade. Its a framelock, supposed to be pretty good.
Only other knife I can think of off hand thats in that size range is a Sifu, rolling lock.

Definitely the Cuda Maxx. You have a titanium frame and a frame lock, like the sebbie. The fit and finish are as good; it's every bit as solid. Then top it off with a Bowie-style, flat-ground D2 steel blade that's 5.5 in. long, and you have one great knife. Oh, yes, you can find them on the web for about $120, which makes them the biggest bargain around.

The blade on my Voyager is 6" and perfect for me would be 6.5". I have another folder that is 5.5" and it is just not the size I wish for. It sounds like the Cuda Maxx would be another great choice if it was longer. For me, size does matter. I like my Voyager better than any other folder I've found, but, I would far rather have the liner lock. I also hope to find this elusive creature, or get one made, that retains the light weight of the Voyager. I'd love to have an even sharper edge and even better steel however.

Well, you may not reach it in a production knife, but Darrel Ralph makes a larger version of the Mad Maxx.
