The Regular Sebenza or the Classic? Why? I'm only asking because I've finally finagled a way to buy another one, but they only have two large (I'm replacing a small I traded like a dumbass last week), a large regular left-handed, and a large classic right-handed. I'm left handed, but I've gotten used to a right handed knife.
 
Of the ones I've had, I liked the Classics better. The reason is simple, I like the extra deep cutout to access the lock bar. I tried the regular, but it was harder to unlock the lock bar because I couldn't get good enough purchase on it. That's my .02 on the matter. I've had 3 by the way (2 reg. and 1 Classic)

I'm with Anthony on this one, although I'll add that for the large size that the difference is not as pronounced as it is for the small. That said, I have a large Classic Sebenza that sees plenty of carry time and a small Classic soon to join it :)

Is there much difference in the shape of the handles? I've seen pix, and they seem to have the same handles, with slightly different blade shapes, other than maybe the deeper cutout for the lock release.
 
I've finally come to the decision that I like the regular better int he large size, and the classic in the small size.
 
I like how the Classic looks better, both in small and large. But I haven't handled either, so I cannot say which I prefer to use, though it appears that the Classic would be easier to unlock. I don't know if the Regular provides better grip thanks to the multiple cutouts.
 
i prefer the regular. it feels better in my hand than a classic and i prefer the blade profile as well.
 
That is a tough one. I don't know how to decide.... My choice would be regular.
 
I prefer the Large and Small Classics. The larger cut out is great and allows me to open, close, manipulate the knife without even looking at it. The spear point blade looks better and just seems better for me to use.
 
I prefer the classic, I like the blade style better and the enlarged thumb hole is much nicer to me as well.
