The 25, 21, Regular and Umnumzaan comparison photos ***VIDEO & Pics Inside***

[BBQ BOY]

Ok, Here are a few iPhone5 pics, and I apologize now for not taking the time to break out the big camera because I know many of you are chomping at the bit to see them. One think I noticed while holding all of the side by side and taking apart the 25 and Zann, is that that CRK has me wondering if they are planning on discontinuing the Zann in the future. The 25 is as every bit of a stout knife that the Zann is. The 25's pivot is massive, the blade stock of the 25 and Zann are the same and without having calipers, I am pretty sure the scales thickness of the 25 are as thick, if not thicker than the Zann.
The the new washer on the 25's lock side makes it idiot proof to mis matching the washers and getting them mixed up HUGE PLUS for me.
The lock stop is affixed to the lock side as well as the standoff. I like this too because I always had to go chasing those little pieces.
The back spacer is threaded on both sides of the knife and every screw had loctite on them.
After cleaning the knife and re-lubing with NanoOil, the knife is now smooth.
I really really like this knife and I feel very confident that y'all are going to enjoy it as I have thus far. I want to congratulate CRK for a job well done and I can not wait for the small 25 and hopefully an inlayed version but I hope the inlays will be like the annuals instead of the 21 version. That would really make this knife VERY special.

Interesting. Looks like they did away with the year/letter on the inside of the scale.

Nice work! Should have mine Tuesday! Pics make it look like it actually could be the best Seb to date! I'm gonna check for myself though. You know... for the good of the land.

I was wondering how long it would take for someone to see that. Well, not long. LOL!!!!

Thanks for the shots BBQ Boy. Looks kind of weird with out the tooling, and lanyard hole gone. Overall I like it though and can't wait to pick one up.

It looks to be ambidextrous with that relief on the lockbar side
