Got caught up in a trading frenzy yesterday. Went to a somewhat local (2 hrs west) knife show, traded a slipjoint and bought a few vintage slipjoints. Bummed that everyone was shutting down, glad to get a few good deals.

Well, I did great later on, at a local knife shop. Traded for a brand new large micarta Insingo! I've only had it since last night, but I found my new EDC. I'm going to carry it along with a slipjoint.

Bad news is that I am trading my small micarta Sebenza. No worries, I have a large micarta Sebenza, but the large Sebenza sees more use than the small. I also have my fixed blade Sebenza, the Nyala.

Getting the Insingo made it a lot easier to trade the small Sebbie! No regrets, except for the large cocobolo I traded :(.
 
I have traded some I regret, and sold some I regret even more. Too bad we cant keep them all.....!!!

How do you like your nyala? I absolutely love mine. It's been a great hunting and fishing knife. I actually sent mine out last week to get some custom carbon fiber scales put on her. I can't wait to get it back!! I'll post pics after it arrives.
 
We're you horse trading with Sean?

I missed the knife show - didn't even know it was happening.

I've been thinking about adding one more large 21 to my collection - I never had a micarta model - keeping my eyes open for the right opportunity.

Yes indeed! I first saw the small Insingo, then the large Insingo, then the large micarta Insingo. Had to go for it.
