I just placed an order for my sebenza 25 and the wait now begins. Could I see some pictures or something in the mean time to help with my wait?
 
Here you go.

Just to make the anticipation worse... You're going to absolutely love it when it arrives :)

I've only had mine a week, but I'm already kicking myself for not getting it sooner.
 
I haven't had a Seb25, but they sure do look comfy!! Pics when ya get it!!!

I have been wanting it for a while and I already know I should have got it sooner but freaking Christmas!
 
Here is mine right after I got it. Hasn't left my pocket since...

You should try a 10 day wait! I ordered a large Star-Benza from Wilson on 12/30 and it still hasn't made it to my door yet by UPS. It has been delayed by 2 different winter storms and the expected delivery date has been updated about 6 different times now. UPS showed out for delivery all day yesterday but later updated the status to Emergency conditions beyond UPS control. It shows it's back out on a truck again today, maybe it will make it this time...

The anticipation would be killing me! Hope you get it today
 
How are you liking it so far?

I don't know.... I have mixed feelings about it. I can tell the quality is there but I have owned a few sebenzas and I have to say out of the box this is not the smoothest opening sebenza I have owned. It will get there though I am sure of it. I haven't had a chance to use it yet but I think once I do I will fall in love with it.

It will smooth out. Have you messed with the pivot yet? Mine is super smooth now that I've dialed it in.

I haven't adjusted the pivot yet. I figured I would open and cl close it all day today and tomorrow and see if it starts to smoothen out. If not I'll start messing with the pivot.

I felt the same way about my 25 when it arrived but I didn't have another CRK to compare it to. After a few days it got smoother and in my case my thumb got tougher as well as educated as to the proper angle to open it. Now I have a new Star-Benza and I'm thinking the same thing about it. My 25 is far smoother so I'm convinced they just need some breaking in.

Congratulations!
 
I love my 25, its my first CRK, I ordered it by accident, thought i was getting a 21 large. I noticed my error after placing the order and decided that it would be fine. It was, i love this knife and its in my EDC rotation! I want an insigno.
