I have done some business dealings with the reeves, those of you who have been here a while might remember how excited I was when I first sold them snakewood. Now I am the exclusive provider for the snakewood used for inlays on all CRK knives.
At BLADE this year, a little birdy at the CRK booth told be that in a couple weeks time Chris Reeve Knives would be streamlining their manufacturing and cutting out the production of devin thomas spirograph damascus blades (now you just have raindrop and ladder to choose from)
Sure enough, shortly after, the options were deleted from the CRK website. Siletnly as well, I have not seen mention of this on any forum, so I might be giving yall an inside scoop.!
Well, I have always wanted one (small size). It has been my dream Sebenza, so I emailed Chris, and proposed a trade for more stock. A week later, an inconspicous brown box arrived, with my new beauty inside. This knife is usually $550+, and USUALLY, you have to wait 9-12 months to get any Devin Thomas blade. I feel very lucky that I could just get one when I wanted.
Here she is!
