The Inlays are here! The inlays are here!

Yep. Saw some of them. The Premium Black Palm is really neat.

Well, I see the Mnandi with Premium Black Palm inlays, on the TNK site, has already been sold.
That was quick.

Hi DaveH,

Did your orange peel ubermodded sebenza arrive yet? How is that going for ya? (It was you who bought it, wasn't it?)

romanx,

Yes it arrived, words can't really describe how nice it is. Congrats to Spyken to having the vision to make it a reality. It's just amazing.
 
Do you guys buy to keep or buy to sell and or trade?

Thanks,
Rich

My plan is to keep it as a set. I have the Small Seb with Mammoth Ivory Bark and a damascus on order. Small one should be inbound soon according to CRK.

You never know, though, I never say never.
 
Palm wasn't an option for the LE's this year.

You are right, Scott. I searched through my inbox from CRK and here is the response I received regarding the inlays offered for 2007:

This year we are offering: Amboyna Burl, Thuya Burl and American Plane Burl, Mammoth Ivory and Mammoth Ivory Bark.

I saw the one at TNK I think that really sucks because I was specifically told by CRK that they would only produce the inlays this year in four inlay materials and palm wasn't an option. If it was I would have ordered mine in palm.:grumpy:

Thank you! Yes, have no plans to sell my Sebenzas but I wouldn't want to say never.

The Mammoth Ivory Bark and damascus should be absolutely outstanding.

All the best,
Rich

Hi Scott,

Sorry you couldn't get the palm inlay. I'd not seen it used before. It's a really interesting look. I also wouldn't mind premium camel thorn inlays on one of the LE Sebenzas.

I'd not thought of ordering one of the LE versions direct from CR. Thanks very much of the idea. I have ordered a small and large classic with plain handles and damascus blades. The small Sebanza came early. Looks great. The large one may be ready in December.

Most of my fancy Sebenazs and Mnandis I've bought were from Neil at TNK. Neil gives excellent service and takes beautiful knife photos. Nice to see what you're buying.

All the best,
Rich
 
Business must be booming at TNK. Annual Sebs (Large) and Mnandi's all gone in the premium woods in just over 24 hours.

If you are looking for an Annual, I suggest you check the site often because I was told by CRK that the Small Annuals should be released soon.
 
I remember seeing those the day that they came out and I had to stop myself from pressing the buy button. I JUST bought a new Mnandi and I am still waiting for it to arrive.

I think if i see a nice Small LE Sebenza I might have to get it as well!!!
 
The Brown Truck came to my house this morning.

The new Sebenza is awesome. TNK's pics are great but to have it in your hand is even better.

:)
