Show me your "carried" Sebenza's

pmek5 · Mar 23, 2011

I seen some threads on "Show me your Sebenza", but I want to see some picks on actual carried, and well used Sebenza's. No safe queens please. I am very interested in the small size in recently reviewing threads, and videos of this knife. It seems to have quite a following. I look at the price, and wonder how many really EDC this knife, and really use it. My I am not a knife collector; if I buy a knife I like to use it. Thanks for your pics.

Here's a link to a recent thread. The idea that Sebenza users don't use their knives is a myth. Sure there are some safe queens, but no more so than other brands.

Here's one of mine:

Mine is only a couple months old, and not showing too much of "beausage" just yet. It's getting there though...

I need my camera, i use my large 21 w/ madagascan rosewood and love it. Just put a new wilson paracord lanyard on.

Thanks KeithAM - Great thread. I did not look hard enough I guess - my bad.
I will say they look as good used as they do new. Its just a lot of money for me, but I am getting closer to making the plunge.

Here's mine. Carried and used everyday since November 6th 2010. :thumbup:
It started out blue but when that started to fade I polished it silver.

Three or four years old, now.

I find the flats of the handle don't get that scuffed up but the spine gets nearly polished pretty quickly in my pockets.

Here's a small regular with it's big brother.......

Looks like a Sinn 656.

I've been carrying this classic 2000 BG-42 Sebenza on and off over the last couple of years.

Dropped in a bucket of paint overnight. Accidentally set on fire. The one that hurt the worst, was using it as an emergency coffee stirrer. Stains in the stonewashed finish of the blade.

I debate daily on if I should just sell it and buy a new 21, or send away to the spa.

None of them! Keep using her and post more pictures after a few years! She has to much character to have it part with you, or have it removed for now IMO! Great picture!:thumbup:

I have posted this in another thread, but mine pretty much still looks the same. Been carrying my own knives for a while, but put mine back into the pocket recently.

I completely agree with Marthinus, leave the knife as it is now and use it further more!!!!! She´s one of the most beautiful Sebbies I have ever seen! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Yup, it's a Sinn 656 with Zulu strap.

656 is super legible, simple and it stays accurate under strong magnetic fields. Perfect EDC automatic watch and its design philosophy matches well with Sebenza IMHO.

Well, thanks for the compliment. But there is something wonderful about a brand new, fresh CRK knife. =)

This one has earned it's keep I suppose, but if I had to do it over again, given the priceI would probably just keep it in a drawer to admire, and use a much cheaper knife on a daily basis.

Did I just commit blasphemy by saying this?

Here's a couple more, enjoy.

Thanks for all the great pics. Well I pulled the tigger today and ordered a small Sebenza-21. I do plan on carring this knife, and will certainly enjoy it I'm sure based on all I have read.
