I was so nervous checking that. I really DID NOT want to see a Zaan available right now, I'm thankful it wasn't!
Definitely a shame that those inlay models no longer come with the polished finished. They still look great, but that change of contrast, especially on the clip side is much nicer with the polished finish.
Agreed! This one is kinda speaking to me though... must ignore the voices!

Do you still have your Damascus/Box Elder?? That's the knife that sent me down this rabbit hole!

Incredible, just about every new knife from that DLT drop is sold out already. There were a bunch of them!

Nice!
I think wood inlays would have been cool but I will actually carry and use the micarta. I like how the black micarta and hardware matches the Damascus. First CRK I’ve had with it.

Man, I hear you. This thread compelled me to dust off my PJ 21 for some pocket time… but now I’m starting to look at some of these other models. Hmm.

TBH, I'm perfectly satisfied with the 5 CRKs that I own. I do kinda wish I'd gotten a large PJ Inkosi; I really like my small Inkosi. But I'm good for now, and maybe forever, as far as CRKs go.
