Your First Ever CRK? Post Pics Please!

Carried a Swiss Army military edition with aluminium handle for years and the quest for my first folder ended with a small Sebenza 21 last November. It's been in my pocket since it showed up at my door and now vascilating between a Large or Umnumzaan as my next purchase for my time out of the office.

My first and only. A large insingo micarta. It is the last knife I bought. It may be the knife that stopped me from buying more, a rarity around these parts. I say "may" because it is too soon to tell:) I bought this in August 2012. I love the character it is building.

Thanks to Ken44 for posting the Blade HQ CRK shop tour.
It answered many questions and after watching, I knew it was time to buy.

Large Sebenza 21 with cocobolo wood inlays.

My first made it's way to me yesterday. I ordered it second, but it beat the one I ordered first in the race home.

Thanks L_W, it's even more beautiful in person. And it's little bro showed up on Friday. Here's a crappy phone pic, which is all I can do without my computer.

Small Sebenza 21 was the first one for me. It's been a slippery slope since then, on to Large 21's - Small Regs, Large Regs, Umnumzaans, Unique Graphics, Cggs, Single Lugs, Double Lugs, P's numbered and unnumbered, and now I've hit a revolving door, back to a Small 21, with double lugs of course.

Bought this one new from CRK back in 2010 it's been long gone for 3 years, I kinda wish I had kept it....

My first sebenza. I got it about 6 years ago and it has been in my pocket ever since. Cocobolo inlay, large Classic.
I also used the small seagrass at work.

I just received my first CRK today. I am really excited to join this awesome community.
 
Some great blades in here.

Here is the one that started it all for me - 1998 Small BG-42. I had CRK recondition last year when I picked up a Small Insingo Micarta, it has just been stored since.
