Small Seb 21 w/no letter on blade

It's odd that mine Lg. 21 (Aug) would have the stamp and his (May) would not.

Remember that even as great as CRK is, they are still a low production operation and thus not comparable to "just in time" assembly lines. Parts are made in batches - handle slabs, blades, washers, etc. - put into holding bins, and then the knives get assembled in batches from those stockpiled parts. Add to the mix that CR continually introduces minor changes and tweaks to the product line, and it's not so odd that some changes don't get happen along strict timelines.

To me, it adds to the character of the Sebenza line (as well as the other CR knives of course, but I'm biased). There are often little "surprises" that you find along the way.

One day if I feel long-winded, I'll tell you all about some of the early Regulars. Try finding two of those that match!
