I thought lets start a fun thread. Most are all business. Which crk "The One" out of all your blades would you never give up and why? Must have pics;) I will go first. Mine is a small Lisa pick I ordered when my daughter was born. Never giving it up. image.jpg
 
I actually have three I can't part with. I've had several other crks but my pre lbs umnumzaan with the old style pivot, my sebenza 25, and my custom nyala will always stay right here. In fact I can say that those three have cured me of my crk sickness. I stopped buying other crks because I am so happy with these three. Can you believe that!? It's been 4 months now.

The Nysla custom is incredible. Great knives. I am with you on the pre-lbs umnum. I put one up recently on the exchange but pulled it because of the history of the knfe. Another I won't sell. The 25 will be a true classic one day. It is my Daily user I recently polished my thumb studs. All great knives.
 
I've known the answer to that question for some time. My plain Large 21 Insingo is definitely the one for me. It has been by my side every day since I got it and has functioned flawlessly. It is a great sidekick and has become one of those things that I don't feel right going anywhere without. This Seb is the best edc I have ever owned and an outstanding tool. Great idea to have a place to pay tribute to the one blade that for whatever reason stands out among the rest. Awesome thread.

I have a large regular that I carried daily that was made on my daughter's birthday in April of 2008. It went to the spa and resting in my safe.
 
I know it was a hard decision puting my "one" into rotation but the satisfaction I get from seeing it daily is well worth not making it a safe queen. Love the insingo. That is one profile I have never had but wanted. Maybe the cf small insingo someday.
 
I know there are a few heavy hitters out there with the big collections. Step up and tell us about the "one". ;)
 
I only have three of them this far, and do enjoy all of them immensly.
If I had to choose one though, it would have to be my first one, the Large Sebenza with Micarta inlays.
It sees use 12-15 hours a day, both at work and at home.
I'm a craftsman by trade, so when I say use, I really mean use.
Once I wear that one out, I'll be getting a new one for sure!
 
I don't really have "the one" but I always seem to come back to the small micarta Insingo. Just a really great little knife.
 
That is one knife I would love. But it would need to have your special bead blast. ;)

If I had to choose one from only the small versions of the Sebenza, that would definitely be mine, again just an awesome edc.
 
This is my first Seb and my most used and carried as well. I will never part with it. I have traded and sold off Regs, Mnandis, Umnumzaan--all part of the hobby and game, but this one stays:
