Thanks Dan! I'd like a Damascus as well at some point, but that promotion wasn't THAT great haha! Those certainly aren't cheap these days

Yea, I did like the knife, especially after the reprofile. But, after getting the Zaan I preferred that to the Large 31. I knew I wanted to try a smaller model Insingo blade once the opportunity came around that I was interested in. Holding onto CRK'S that don't hold much value to you feels like a BIG waste!

Thanks! It's the only knife I've ever had that I've taken to a mirror finish. I like the way the Small 31 feels in hand, so I wanted another one that wasn't so pretty that I wouldn't feel as worried about using. Enter the small Insingo. Now I've got to get a few knives up on the swap page because I broke my own rule when acquiring this knife haha. I took a group photo of 4 that I'm THINKING I'm going to sell...just haven't had the guts to make a post yet!

Well, here’s one I missed. They do Sezzle, too.

I gotta watch these guys.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

One large Sebenza in Magnacut (black canvas micarta) enroute Down Under… 😎

I grew quite fond of the large plain jane S45VN over the last few months, especially after I lowered the edge angle. The hollow grind cuts really well.

Nice! I hadn't seen a LG BCM in MC drop yet.

First Magnacut knife for me too. I always envisioned it would be a Spyderco… Who would have thought you’d get a Reeve in MC first… (I know, the Native MC is out, but SE only for now).

Also, I finally gave up on getting any of the BBB 15V sprints at a decent price. Too hard from this side of the world. A CRK however fills that void nicely!

Nice Hans!! Are you going to take that one to 17dps as well? I've found 17dps on my Inkosi Insingo as well as the Large 31 I had for a while, to be a pretty great angle for those CRK's. I remember when I did that Large Inkosi, it was at like 22 on one side, and I just got lazy around 17 and found it to work out nicely haha.
