What will be your first CRK knife purchase in 2013?

I have a CamelThorn Mnandi inbound (thanks Lisa) but that was a 2012 purchase.
I think this year I'd like to add at least one more Mnandi (some really beautiful Box Elder with Ladder Damascus) but I'd also like to find a small Sebenza with Damascus. Need to educate myself more on the small Seb

Cheers

I've really had an itch for a small Wilson Combat Starbenza. They've been out of stock on their website and haven't seen one on the exchange for some time.
 
I'm hoping for a South African made Tanto 111 One Piece Knife. As always I'll have an eye open for any of the early fixed blades.........

I just received a Tanto Umnumzaan yesterday, and I am very impressed with it so for. The Umnumzaan, along with my small Insingo, cover most of my edc needs; so I will probably be waiting on an inlayed 25 in some sort of nicely grained wood for a dress piece…. Or maybe I’ll try to get my hands on a small P Sebenza… I might try a Mnandi… Or there’s always………..:D
 
I'm trying to save for a Sebenza 25 and/or an S30V Umnumzaan with traditional blade to accompany my TNK Umnumzaan.
 
I may try not to spend a bunch this year but I would like some kind of wood inlayed Sebenza.
 
I plan on going to buy an Umnumzaan because I've wanted one for about a year now. But I also want an Mnandi and an Large insigno!
 
Would love to see some photos of the CRKs that arrive first for this year.
 
I'm hoping to buy my first CRK in the next few months. I'm definitely going to pick one up off of the exchange here on the forum, and will probably look for the plane small or large Sebenza 21. Just can't ever seem to bring myself to pull the trigger on one.
 
Buying from the exchange is a good way to test one out usually risk free if bought right.
That's how I started, but as a word of caution all that savings just makes you want to buy another one :)
 
I stumbled into a trade for a large insingo with micharta inlays. That's how I got started.

I actually traded a knife that cost less (it is more rare) and ended up with this nice knife. Keep an eye out and I'm sure you'll find a good deal. I'm kicking myself for sitting out of the CRK arena for so long.
 
I just got my first CRK, a cocobolo mnandi a few weeks ago and I fear that I'm hooked. Next up is a Small Insingo ASAP.
 
I hope the big brother of this guy travels north. :D

Wow, thats a really awesome seb! love the flagand damascus combo.
 
Already got myself a large micarta classic today. Bought it BNIB at a knifeshop, the owner got them and locked them away. And holy crap I didnt even look at the birth date until now and its one day before my birthday!!! 8/31/2006 Found my new EDC!
