Chris Reeve Knives

Post by Forensic Jim »

I just bought four of these Chris Reeve Knives. One I bought two with the arrow design with the intention of carrying, but for some reason, I just can't seem to bring myself to put that high dollar knife in my pocket. I like the way these are made and how solid they feel. I bought these before El Lobo passed and thought he would appreciate the one with the howling wolf design. I've been reluctant to post it since he passed away, but thought I'd do it now.

8) Jim, Very Nice! ::tu:: You are correct, Bill would have loved that Howling Wolf model! I also know what you mean about the CRK's being a little too expensive to tote around in your pocket for cutting zip ties and such. ::nod::

I was going to tell him it's the "El Lobo" knife. He probably would have enjoyed it.

Sebenza means work in Chris Reeves' native Zulu language. They were meant to be used!

I DO carry and use my custom knives. But, to each his own.

They are beautiful folders.You can't beat CRK for tight tolerence & fit.Since you have 4 of them you should'nt be worried about using them.They are made for work.Chris Reeve wants you to take them apart,clean them,oil it,whatever it needs,thats why he includes the little key to take it apart.Enjoy them ::tu::

Very understandable, but on the other side I can practically hear that knife begging for some pocket time... Listen and you will hear it too! :D

Very nice knives! ::nod::

I decided to carry one of the "Straight Arrow", knives. Picked up a CR sheath for it at the last club meeting so there is no excuse not to carry it now. My biggest fear was losing it as one good friend of mine recently lost a knife that meant alot to him.

Congratulation on a new user!
Like most of us I have lost my share of pocket knives... A sheath is a good idea.
Let us know how the knife performs! ::nod::
