I waited almost a day to spill the beans, just wanted to at least see it had shipped.... I must have had some real good Karma built up to get this, and for the price I did. :eek:

I've told of my small Maple 2010 Annual that was stolen before, happened when I had to leave AGH in a hurry while it was enroute. I was on my 4th tour in the sand, my second in AFG. The first one was cut short, too. My second tour as a contractor, too, I'd started collecting CRK's the year before during my first tour as a contractor. So 2012 rolls around, I'm stationed on a small somewhat remote base. I noticed a lump growing in a place where lumps don't belong. I showed it to the PA on base, she kept a close eye on it for a few days. She saw it was growing, and fast. she said get a biopsy ASAP. The weather was iffy, the regular chopper routes couldn't be counted on, so she called in a medevac to get me to Bagram.

The day before that beautiful Annual got there, from what I'm told. It was cancer, I spent the next year+ home getting treatment. :barf: But my package was seen by one person, who I just couldn't convince to get it sent back to the seller, or forwarded to me. Sure enough, it disappeared. :mad: It's bd enough that it was stolen, but no one there had any appreciation for my knives. That sucks even worse, because only 60 of these were made each year. The sting never quite went away, but something came up for sale that eases it just a bit. Almost as pretty, here's my Inbound!

Congrats on the p! I saw that for sale. The annual is gorgeous too!
 
My second sebenza is on its way. Nothing compared to the recent posts, but I'm excited.

Very nice! Would you like a Large to match it?

Hey now, you are the one that got me started down this path trading me an Insingo :)

Possibly down the road though. Large sebenza of some sort is definitely next on the list.

I really need to stay off this board :) I feel like CRK needs to send you a check every month for marketing.

Random question, I noticed on the one I have coming that the screws are smooth on the front side. I think they are just in backwards. Is that the case on yours where the screws are smooth on the lock side?
 
They stopped using solid head screws a few years back. But yours are flipped around if the solid head is to the front, CRK would put them to the back. I flipped them around the first time I took the knife apart, as I preferred the solid to the front.

And a check isn't necessary, I'd be perfectly satisfied with a Sebenza each month. :p :D
