I have been wanting to get one of these inserts since way back but just always forgot about it.. Since I have 2 more incoming CRKs, I finally decided to get the pelican insert so that I have somewhere to keep my knives...

I have been looking at those for a while, but I can't look at in person. What model did you get?

It's an old Pelican 1170 that I got for my camera accessories that I don't use anymore. I just bought the foam insert only.
 
I was very lucky to deal with a great member here on bladeforums who sold me these two rare pieces. A small lefty Classic with old-style jimping and a lefty numbered mnandi. I'm very excited to get these two!

Excellent acquisitions! What is that inlay on the Mnandi? African Blackwood?
 
I'm out of control tonight! Picked up a Mnandi - a Cobolo with beautiful grain - and a Regular Sebenza, pics to follow. Along with a pending TA Davison and a vintage Schrade (and a Buck beer bottle opening knife - love those). Additionaly I still owe this thread pics of my 2nd Inyoni I picked up a while back....

...I need an intervention.

I'm here to help. Start by sending me the Sebenza and Mnandi, and I'll get you on the road to recovery. ;)

I saw that TA Davison and you were my intervention:), gorgeous knife.
I might have one coming, then I saw the shooting star night sky thread
and it was mentioned there were others. I had to check it out, and yep, there is one less,
and I'm telling everyone I've got to hang low for a bit
When you have your intervention, pass it on :)

I let a similar TA Davison pass earlier because I didn't have the funds and have regretted it ever since, so I wasn't going to let this one go by. Part of this splurge is due to the fact that I am still bitter about a rare Mnandi I let go by the last week or so... Arrghh!!!!

What year was that Classic made?

2002. The pocket clip that is on it in the picture isn't correct. It was put on there due to the owner preferring the older style clips. He is putting the correct clip on before shipping.

Ah, I see. Tell him to throw in the old clip too, for teasing us! ;) :p
 
plain jane 21 with double lugs, that specific one has always called to me despite already having a single lug micarta 21. Prefer plain I guess.
 
I went on a buying binge last night! All these were ordered yesterday except for the Inyoni. I think I will have to be posting some of my other knives on the Exchange to recoup some of my money. I'll post some of my own pics of the ones on order once they arrive.

Inyoni - my second one. I got this in the mail the day after Christmas but never posted here:
