HECK YEAH GO YOU!!!:D You'd better have lots of pics and a detailed review of it when you get it. That is a very important process to go through to appease us who have supported you:p But in all actuality, congrats. I hope you like it as much as we like ours. Where'd you get it from?
 
It just got here!!!:eek::D:D

Any doubts I had about Sebenzas are all cleared up.What a sweet HUNK of knife!!I had no idea a framelock could be sooo smooth!I think CRK may be responsible for ruining me for all other brands.:o

Here are some (crappy) pics.I really need to learn how to take some decent pics.

What a handsome devil you got there! I found that I really really like the polished grind on the wood inlay models.

Yea,I was pleasantly surprised by the mirror polish on it.I wasn't expecting that.Very nice!:thumbup:
 
Do you know if you ordered or paid for the polished blade, because they cost a bit more, maybe $15.00-30.00 more, I'm not sure exactly.

Anyway, it looks awesome. Congratulations! I'll be in the market soon for a small Seb to compliment my large, and your pictures (difficult to take a poor one of such a sweet knife!) just may have convinced me to get an inlay with polished blade. ;)
 
Thanks,It didn't even mention "polished blade" in the listing.



I got it from a Chris Reeve dealer on ebay.Very nice people & the shipping was very fast.I didn't expect it til' Monday.
I asked them if they could take it out of the box & make sure the blade was centered & check for any other imperfections.They did it no problem, & got back to me right away.

I think all the wood inlay models come with a polished grind and scales. The micarta inlays do not.
 
John,

I'm very happy for you! That is a keeper bro...

Do "use it" because as nice as they look, they really excel when in "use." And yes, you are now ruined from other knives. ;)
