The CRK Insingo Hangout!

[ice_man]

I would LOVE a Damasus Insingo large 21!!!:thumbup:

I can settle for a Small Raindrop Damascus Insingo 21...

I would love to see a small ladder damascus micarta Insingo!

I am saving up for my first CRK folder - I'm torn between the large Insingo and the Sebenza 25. I like the 25 but the blade geometry of the Insingo is quite tempting.


Thoughts?

If it is your first CRK, i would recommend going with the 21 Insingo. the shape of the Insingo blade makes the whole cutting edge very usable..the bushing pivot is awesome...needs to be experienced to understand the CRK approach...the simplicity of one tool for take down and no loctite needed along with no need to find the perfect tension on the pivot really make the 21 a great knife for the long term..

Agreed.

If you fancy the Insingo blade shape as well I would steer you towards one as well. It's pure utility workhorse.

Not seeing pict but my word of advice if I may call that? If you are sending it in, go for the silver thumb studs. The blue ones wears in a day's use and will continue to wear.

I love double thumb lugs, so if that is what you want, go for it!

 

[tmd_87]

Can I join?! 1st CRK and I picked a Small double lug insingo!

 

[RedwoodGirl]

Can't wait for mine to arrive! (small first production run Insingo, #21 of 50)

 

[ericlosh]

love it, my BM 485 has made me appreciate small blades so i cant imagine not getting a small CRK at some point, but this will get more use than the others

just love it.

Just the lighting, or is that actually full flat ground?

 

[RamDreamer]

Good catch, i hadn't noticed that before. Must be the lighting. Another photo in another thread shows it is not FFG.

 

[RedwoodGirl]

RamDreamer is correct; it is the same grind as a modern Insingo, which I believe is a slight hollow grind which ends a few millimeters from the top of the blade. The only differences I can see in the photos are the presence of the 21-50 stamp and lack of an IDAHO MADE stamp.
