What's your favorite type of CRK?

[batosai117]

I was doing a little bit of research on the whole "strider vs. sebenza" stuff on youtube, and started thinking what would be a good poll to post up. Well, I assumed another "strider vs. sebenza" thread would just not do it, so as a little in house discussion:

What is your favorite type of Chris Reeve Knives? Please give a brief explanation of who/what/where/when/why it is your favorite, don't just vote and run!

There's the large classic, regular, 21
Small classic, regular, 21
umnumzaan
fixed blades
etc.....

Of course my favorite is a Large Sebenza 21, just the way it comes, no graphics or inlays, just blasted slabs with a sharp blade :thumbup:

I just realized I completely left off the mnandi, sorry guys/gals, that will have to end up on the "anything I missed or forgot...."

The Classic and 21 are basically identical though

Well......the site does say "it's easier to put into a pouch or pocket" so it can't be completely identical

I voted for the small, classic, Sebenza. It's tough, simple, large enough for most tasks, and light enough so I hardly notice it in my pocket. I recently snagged an Umnum... It's too early to tell if it will become my new favorite .

Forgot one more thing. The small, classic, Seb is sheeple friendly; I'm afraid the Umnum might be a bit much for certain places. We shall see.

small 21 for me, without a doubt.

 

[T.K.C.]

The small Dog Paws Classic Sebenza IS my very favorite!! The the small 21 comes next.

Im a fan of the regular Sebs and the one piece fixed blades :thumbup:

Large classic Sebenza. Near perfect combination of blade length size and utility.

that's my vote!

I'm still carrying a large reg (galuka) at work, so it gets my vote.

Second favorite carry is a LDC-109, one of the few knives I carry with a clip.

 

[Capt. Carl]

I've had a small regular for about a year now. Carry it everyday.

umfaan.

 

[dectia]

I've been lusting for the mnandi since I first laid eyes on it.

 

[batosai117]

Looks like the Regulars are dominating the board, followed very closely by the Classics. Keep 'em coming, J.

 

[GigOne]

I don't have a particular favorite. It would mean less pocket time for "the others" and I don't want to hurt "the others" feelings.

The Lrg. Reg. Sebenza is ahead on the poll. CRK drops it!??

I'm guessing that the statistics are misleading, since the coexistence of classic and classic 21 entries cause a vote split. Having said that, I've been carrying a regular unique for 12 years and love Lisa's (and formerly, Chris's) invention of that decoration method. I also believe the CRK inlay method to be the finest on the planet at any price. As a result, I voted unique/inlay.

Kinda funny how the most popular so far has been discontinued. Perhaps this is a sign, CRK!

I can't believe you left off the Mnandi :grumpy:
