The 1st cut is the deepest. Do you still own your 1st CRK?

My first and only CRK was and is my Sebenza 25. Instantly fell in love with it and a couple years later my thoughts and feelings on it haven't budged.

I used to cast shade on CRK when I was new and dumb and didn't understand. Now I understand.

Forgive the dirty fingernails I'm a landscaper
 
I’ve never handled a 21 always liked them, just couldn’t rap my mind around the fact of late lock up 65% to 85% so I never purchased. (Bad Decision)
I now have new and used L31s, Inkosi, and Umnumzaan. All great knives!
My first CRK is a Inkosi 2019 s35v no box, no card and off to the rabbit hole I go!
 
My first was a graduation gift from a friend, a small CGG "3 in line" from 2008. It was my EDC and a few months later, I had to use it in an emergency. The knife went above and beyond in what a folder should do. I contacted the mothership with what I did, and the issues resulting from my actions. They told me to send it in. A few weeks later, I got my knife back good as new! The way I was treated, even though it was my fault really showed me what the company stood for and their pride of product. This pretty much solidified my passion and loyalty to the brand since.

I was able to cross paths with Anne and Chris a year or 2 later at Blade Oregon and wanted to thank them in person. Anne actually remembered my story...wow. With all the stuff they deal with how could she remember that story?

Fast forward a few years later and I thought I had lost my first CRK. I was HEART BROKEN as it had so much sentimental value. So naturally, I went out and bout a small seb 21 as a replacement. Luckily a few months later I found my first behind my T.V. (Out of all the places...I thought that was a good spot to leave it), and just like that 1 became two. The rest is history.
