Re: What "others" are in the mail?
Nice purchase ! The Exocet is the only microtech auto I find interesting, some of the variations are pretty nuts.
I'm pretty disappointed by my Civivi Cogent. Has terrible lock stick, I tried to fix it and thought I succeeded but it just started doing it again. When the flipper is used, the plunge lock engages further than if I go slowly...
Since it's a "black blade" it already shows marks of use, I wonder if the dealer will take a return.

In the collection : Lots of different steels, in lots of different (and same) Spydercos.

Re: What "others" are in the mail?
Time to sell a few Spydie's to offset this one. Been looking for these inlays on a Large for a while now! Also interested to see if I can notice a difference in their fairly soft ran S35VN compared to this S45VN. Doubtful, but gave me another reason to try it out!

Very nice!! Beautiful inlay!
So it goes.
Re: What "others" are in the mail?
I'm just hoping the inlays are similar to what the photo is, or better!Airlsee wrote: ↑Thu Jan 06, 2022 8:19 amTkoK83Spy wrote: ↑Thu Jan 06, 2022 8:01 amTime to sell a few Spydie's to offset this one.

On another note, I was following this Umnumzaan on eBay the past few days. I threw in a bid at $500 a couple days ago...that knife is now up to $930!!!!!!! Blows my mind that people can't remain patient for a new run and spend that kind of money on something that's not even a special edition!

I was really thinking your next CRK would be The Boss, but I'm glad you went for the Box Elder!
Re: What "others" are in the mail?
I definitely have my eye out for a Zaan, but in no rush now. Box Elder inlays have always caught my eye. I've been enjoying my PJ 31 and decided I'd like a fancier one to pair with it. It should be here Wednesday, I'll have to wait and see for the pattern!abbazaba wrote: ↑Sun Jan 09, 2022 5:54 pmThe polished Box Elder has been my most carried Sebbie for months now.

I like that this one has the matte finish, where my Small 31 with the Macassar inlays is polished. They should look great together.

A Grimsmo Norseman. I had one, sold it, regretted it. So recently I’ve been checking out their inventory, nothing really struck me until today when I saw the exact configuration that I sold. The final push was it was made on my birthday. I had to do it even though I swore off right handed knives. There’s just something about a Norseman that I really like.

Nice! That looks like the old micarta pattern, which I prefer. My natty Insingo is one of my favorite Sebenzas

Re: What "others" are in the mail?
Hmm... I'm not sure?
I remember the 21s had the two bar inlays, this is a 31 with the single wide inlay. I haven't been paying attention to CRK as much recently, but I'm pretty sure this is the current inlay pattern. The knife is definitely new, and coming with an S45VN blade - stoked on that!

Re: What "others" are in the mail?
Been jonesing for some new knives. My REK Embers should be complete sometime in February. Got a Shiro Neon NL Black Micarta MRBS coming from Canada, probably be a couple weeks, and I may either be pre ordering a Arno Benard iMamba or picking up a Orca.
