Something about sebenzas with a tanto look super rad to me for some reason.

BAM! Thanks for using my initials in your review! 👊🏽

Nick you are a nut and I love it even though I what to throw out half my collection after you review them keep up the good work

I like the explanation on the tanto through tape lol that second point is King for opening boxes to me

I really want to see a front flipper Sebenza

I do like your point (no pun intended) about the tanto for opening boxes. It's not my preferred blade shape but again, you made a great point. Thank you for yet another fabulously colorful and informative review. I'm currently struggling with saving for a Sebenza.

so am i but i really hope i dont get it and be like damn is this it? my spyderco endura smacks this knife and ive had 13 of them bitches in the last 10 years lol i gotta have something to look forward to! they sell crk's locally and ive been doing a great job of staying out of those stores because i know i could just throw it on the card and not eat lunch or drink alcohol socially for a while but i just dont want it to lose its luster. the other bad boy on the want list is a randall model 1 fighter and get a custom kydex sheath made. talk about one ill never use lol

That tanto would bug the crap out of me .like every time I opened it I would think for a second that my blade had the tip broke off! It is a well done tanto though.

The Emeril Lagasse movie magic made me LOL!!!

Great review... relative to the blade shape/CF scales. I just don't care for the deployment, as you have discussed in (an) earlier video(s). Thanks Nick! -Sid

Nice review, Nick! Good to see the return of the movie magic disassembly in your reviews. You're a little rusty though. :P

Yeah, I guess the struggling part is just wondering if it's totally worth it. But I'll never know until I get one. As they say, the anticipation is the best part.

what's up with the bike brake styled washer on both sides I understand the cf side but the titanium

Holy crap you used movie magic i used to love that glad to see you brought that back😁

How is the smoothness with the CF scale? I assume it's similar due to the pivot bushing.

I love my small CF sebenza so much. It's sexy and feather lite, the perfect gentlemen carry!

Have you tried the large Insingo with Micarta inlay yet ?

What does is CF scale cost to produce versus titanium?

the best production knife with top quality machining and precision. will never sell my chris reeves knives.

Nice review

Wouldn’t it make more sense to flip the screws to the lock side since they bite into the titanium to keep tension?

Nice review Nick. I am working on a Tanto Blade design and looking for inspiration, finding the Sebenza Tanto appealing the most as traditional japanese tanto's I feel most people will not fully grasp in a folder. They appear more like a kwaiken than a tanto to the normal eye.

+mwvanwyk I think both can be very nice. The Hinderer Spanto has done well.

Hey Nick, do you plan to review the large Inkosi?

Do a Rockstead knife review so we can see your face!

You should do the CRKT M16-13SF Tanto

Biggest thing I’ve noticed with carbon fiber is much more prone to getting chewed up by keys and things in your pocket...assuming you’re actually carrying your sebenza

oooouuuuuu that a nice one.

Secondary market on any CRK CF knives seems to be a bunch slower and the resale value alot less than standard CRK knives. Don't know what that says but yeah. Would have preferred the tanto blade to remain exclusive to the Umnumzaan. On an Umnum it looks awesome but on a Sebenza it looks wonky and out of balance with the rounded lines of the handle. If they want to do something cool - bring the old pivot back to the Umnumzaan. That would make people more happy than a Tanto Sebenza I bet.

What lanyard is that?

It's the normal lanyard that comes with the knife. All Sebenza''s come with a lanyard already attached.

dude nice vid though I keep picturing Joe pesci when your talking. :-)

damn she cute i do need a tanto for the rotation and im trying to talk myself out of the zt 620 or 630. thatd scratch my itch for a true wave knife, tactical ass knife, and tanto. i need you to wreck that new sinkevich because i already have the 0450 and 0452cf and i dont want that new one. i also need you to tell me all i need is a cold steel code 4 tanto and ill be aight

AXE THA NYCK QUESTION: WHAT IF IN JOHN WICK 3 HIS TAC BLADE OF CHOICE WAS A GRIMSMO NORSEMAN?!?!? oops sorry i thought i was on the bootleg channel neck shebaddz pole diver extrodinaire. bad joke, but since its so close to may the 4th be with you i thought that was funnier than a macrotech hello v

I was just thinking that it would make a cool front flipper.

The small washer looks odd to me..

@1:13 & @2:02 . . . Laughed. My. Ass. Off.

Where is the accent from... I'm from New Zealand and you sound mafioso👍

love the knife, but why tanto? even though I enjoy a good tanto, it doesn't seem of the Nick...okay I see, I see, after watching the video. like I should have

This comment makes me sad. It's a tool knife that lives to be used. It'll never be worth more than the joy you'll get from using it.

It's just a tanto, see? Whoa-oh-oh-oh! It's not the real thing. Oh, oh, oh-oh!

Wasn't a huge fan of mine...got rid of it without any use or much handling.

No reason to buy the carbon fiber model. Especially when its more than the all ti version. If you want carbon fiber just get a custom scale made. That way you still get two ti slabs and wont get jipped.

Bigcal44 KnifeArt.com has the exclusive on CF Sebenzas,. You can get them right now in the drop point and tanto blades, but they are out of stock on the Insingo blades in CF. There’s every reason to spend a little bit more on the CF; it’s nice as hell, and lighter.

To buy aftermarket scales for a Sebenza would make no sense and completely misses the point why Sebenzas are great in the first place.

I have the sabenza 21 carbon fiber wave pattern d2 blade no makings except d2 on the blade $45.00

Tanto blade is a pain in the butt to sharpen.

carbon fiber, carbon fiber.... carbon fiber

Leave it to Nick to to change my mind about "no more CRK for a while". I have a large CF Insingo, Large CF Inkosi, small CF Insingo and now I neeed this Tanto lol. Oh I almost forgot!.. I bought a large CF regular Sebenza 21 last night..

nathan rubio they do on some diving knives because of it's rust resisting qualities. Ti's edge retention is pretty bad though

Good heavens, that tanto profile is ugly. Given how aesthetic CRKs usually are, I'm surprised that design came from the same shop.

People know the Delica4 is superior overall, the tolerances, lockup, jimping, texture, blade angle, ergos, weight, looks, all better, they're looking for competition and Spyderco knows there isn't much of it. I think it's the budget-friendly aspect that's making them request the Cutjack.
