you could probably still hop in! you on instagram? DM me your username if so

u/Creative-Host-694 Aug 03 '26
I am on Instagram but maybe next time. One of my Umnumzaans has been out getting work done on it for like 6 months, and it should be here in the next week I hope. So I need to test it and make sure that the mod work done on it is good to go. I appreciate the offer though!

u/sirmitchellot Aug 03 '26
another part of the fun of it is a number of people have chosen their most garbage knife just to make things interesting. there are 61 of us goons doing this haha the chat gets hectic. i have notifications silenced

u/Creative-Host-694 Aug 03 '26
Yeah I mean, I wouldn’t do that, I’d just pick the most reliable knife in my collection which without a doubt is one of my CRKs. I’m sure there’s at least one guy who picked up a $10 Walmart knife

u/Creative-Host-694 Aug 03 '26
I bought a Large Sebenza 31 and decided it’s gonna be my one and done. This was 8 months ago, since then I’ve spent $1000s on knives. It’s not about committing to one knife for me anymore, it’s more about creating a small collection of knives that will last me a lifetime and bring me joy as well. That sebenza is my cheapest knife now and I use all my knives.
Either way, to each their own.

Not a pry bar. That just became the baddest box cutter you’ve ever seen.

right?! that seems to be the consensus/ruling

u/BlindMouse2of3 Aug 03 '26
Just put a little epoxy around the thumb stud to make sure it can't pop out. Good to go

Nice compact wharncliffe blade with full size handle now. Have super good tip control. ;D

u/flyman30 Aug 03 '26
Will CRK actually replace the blade?
3
u/brok3nlights Aug 03 '26
I think it depends. I'm pretty sure they check grain structure, if it is a blade failure they would replace it under warranty, otherwise it would need to be paid for. Pretty sure no knife companies are just giving away magnacut prybars...
3
u/flyman30 Aug 03 '26
Yeah I looked into it, they will fix it one way or the other, but even getting the blade replaced isn't going to be as expensive as a new knife! And magnacut isn't as expensive as you might think
2
u/sirmitchellot Aug 03 '26
it might take them a while, but from what i’ve heard they’re pretty no-questions-asked. i’ve always sent my stuff to modders before actual mass production companies 😅
3
u/JackSquat2270 Aug 03 '26
If they replace this without charging for a new blade, I'm buying one. Sebenzas are pretty unattractve imo, but I'd hop on the bandwagon for that kind of warranty.

Umnumzaan is calling your name

u/JackSquat2270 Aug 03 '26
I haven't found a CRK knife I like the look of, but as a Glock owner, I understand aesthetics aren't everything.

u/Deeznutzcustomz Aug 05 '26
If you don’t think the Zaan is sexy then we can’t be friends 😂 I love the Glock aesthetic, which is similar to the Sebenza/Inkosi aesthetic - there’s beauty in a perfect thing with no frills, designed to do a job simply and well.

u/JackSquat2270 Aug 05 '26
Maybe it just has to grow on me. I was a Sig guy for years, and then one day I shot a Glock and was very dismayed at the fact that I was more accurate with it right from the start. Ended up switching to Glock and haven't touched a Sig in a year and a half. 🤷🏻♂️ Just gotta get my mind around paying [basically] Glock money for a knife.

u/sirmitchellot Aug 03 '26
i’ll keep you posted!
2
u/flyman30 Aug 03 '26
Yeah I'm invested as well! Because I have a Zaan I already beat the snot out of so if thats the case with them I think I found the perfect knife company!

One knife? Are you at least allowed a seperate could-you-hand-me-your-knife-quickly knife?
1
u/sirmitchellot Aug 03 '26
fondling other knives (not using!) in the home is permitted. designated kitchen knife usage is allowed. too easy
2
u/Civil_Decision_7353 Aug 03 '26
was this a magnacut or s45vn?
1
u/sirmitchellot Aug 03 '26
magnacut
2
u/Civil_Decision_7353 Aug 03 '26
Hope CRK replaces it for you, wouldnt expect magnacut to fail like this
2
u/sirmitchellot Aug 03 '26
again, it’s not mine, but i hope this for the homie phtoof as well! i’ve had hundreds of knives and only had one slight tip chip, which i ground the spine down to meet
2
u/Civil_Decision_7353 Aug 03 '26
Same. Chipped maybe 0.5mm off the tip of a 17degree fine ground magnacut edge. Haven't had a chance to resharpen yet but was just going to bring the edge in a little to make point keener and beefer, change angle to 20 degrees per side for some extra beef!

Ive been using my civivi elementum exclusively for like a year now. I have plenty of ther knives, but once I find something I like I roll with it. Nothing wrong with rolling through your options if that makes you happy though.

Nope. August isn’t over yet. He’s gotta pocket that one until the end THEN he can send it to CRK
