Been looking from afar for a long time, handled a few, while i always really liked what i saw i just never pulled the trigger. I mainly EDC a Benhcmade 710 in M390 and a Benchmade 943, found them to be a perfect little combo. Always had a thing for tolerances and i'm really enjoying the single tool philosophy and the way the CRK is put together. It has a real subtle perfection to it, i'll be rotating it on and off with my 710 fro now on and putting it to work. Had a quick question also, how are CRK about sending out things like new standoff bushings or stop pin bushings? Am i able to just order them online and have them shipped over to me in Australia? Looking forward to hanging out in this thread also, couple pics of her below.

Congrats on a great blade! The Lg 21 Micarta is my personal favorite.
Im not sure about shipping to Australia (probably just an additional charge), or if they send out stop pin bushings, but the best way to deal with CRK is to just call them. Someone always answers and they are more than willing to help in any way. Fantastic company with fantastic customer service and a fantastic product.
 
Congrats! They're amazing tools. Your love for it will only continue to grow.

CRK does not send out bushings. Not even for the stop pin. They will mail out screws, standoffs, pocket clips, etc, but anything that contacts the blade will need to be fitted by them.
 
They won't send out stop pin bushings without the knife being sent in. But they will ship out the screw that goes inside the bushing without having to send the knife in.
 
Congratulations on your new knife.
As they have said some parts need to be fitted and the knife sent in. The good news is that it is doubtful you will need those parts anytime soon.
 
Thanks gents, and thanks for the info on the bushings/fitment. Looking forward to getting this one dirty.
 
To quote another Mick from Australia, "THAT'S a knife!"

A little over a year ago I was questioning whether it really made any sense to spend that kind of money on a knife. Today I have 6 CRKs and a seventh would be a large Micarta 21 like yours, but with the Insingo blade like the one photoman12001 looks forward to. Wolfe has indeed seen your future, though you've got a ways to go to catch up with her--you'd probably have to charter your own ship to haul that many CRKs over to the Land Down Under.
