Sebenzas with dual lugs- I have no use for them

I feel the same way about 1911's having dual safety on each side. I don't buy them either. I don't shoot left handed. Sure I know in a situation, I might get my right hand blown off. But with a knife having dual lugs is even more unnecessary.

Just give me right side thumbstubs please. Duals are a deal breaker for me. Makes me feel like I bought a left handed knife or a knife I might want to sell to a lefty.
 
Like the symmetry/usefulness of duals, but will buy based on other considerations...;-)
 
Being left handed in a right handed world, the double lugs serve a purpose for me. Many of my CRK's are right handed. Over the years, I've become ambidextrous when it comes to knives.
A single lug CRK has been a deal breaker for me at times.
 
Its good to have double dual lugs but on sebbys I do agree those lugs do get in the way when cutting. Lugs on Umnumzaan though is perfect as it is located near to the scales.
 
I would never use the right stud. I do think they look better with 2 studs tho. I have 3 large CRK's with dual studs.

Single stud guy here. For me, a second lug simply won't ever get used. If I wasn't going to use the pocket clip, I'd remove that too regardless of whether I had that little filler tab or not.
 
I also prefer the single stud, but as a lefty a double stud can be convenient in a right handed configuration

Ditto.

My 25 is double lug and does not bother me the least.
Now that I look at my 21s, they look uneven, but not enough to bother me at all.
 
I think they improve the look, but as a right hander I don't really feel I need them myself.
But if I saw the same knives(with and without) that I wanted I would choose the double lug, even if the cost was a bit more.

Those of us who are ambi, and those of us who have had injuries that disabled our usual hand for a time, really appreciate double lugs and similar arrangements.
 
I don't care a lot either way, but I do prefer that if the knife has double lugs it was made for them- I like the cut out on he lock side for access.
 
Single stud for me.
- More than once, a knife opened on me as I was pulling it out, because of the "other" stud hanging up on my pants. :eek: Not cool!

And besides, if money is an issue, sebenza probably isn't the knife for you.

It is not about money or how many bells and whistles a knife has. Sebenzas fame is built around simple and useful perfection. That is the allure. The fact that most people are right handed (myself included) and that I want something that fits me and my
my person. Anything more is a turnoff and devalues the knife in my usefulness.
 
Another aspect I like about the single is I'd have a lot better chance of pressing it out and back in if I ever felt the need to.

CRK with a wave feature. I will have to see if I can do it consistently with the 25!
