Here's my needs work project.  I'm not super happy with how it turned out, but it's usable and I learned some things, so I'll still call it a win.

It was pretty rusty and nasty when it came to me, so the liners and blade got polished a bit, and the blade and edges of the liners got a scotchbrite finish.  The tip was a little damaged, so I had to reprofile it a little.

It's all sharpened up and ready to get into the EDC rotation.

Here it is with a factory g10 needs work.

@Star_Scream it happened to me. I have a Sebenza on the loose. My first, that I had MAGA engraved on.



ETA: Put my Busse knives and CRK fixed blade up on the EE if anyone wants to make offers.

Oh shit.

Should be easy to watch out for. Not sure there's a lot of MAGAbenzas out there.

I'll keep my eyes peeled.

I'm honestly worried it got trashed. I've been cleaning my apartment and packing in anticipation of moving next year, and it's either boxed, or trashed.

Hunting season here, so this has been my main squeeze for the past few weeks.

Also this post serves to tide me over until Canada Post stops striking and brings my most recent purchase.

I did the pre-order back in Feb/March. I got an "order completed" email the other day saying it was getting ready to go out. I did go look at the listing while looking at other things and they show as sold out. I'm guessing there are more pre-orders than there were in the shipment they got in.

ETA: I have been charged for it.

Many thanks for the update.

I saw pics on Fbook today from someone who has already received theirs.

Hopefully mine will ship soon.

Look forward to seeing pics of yours when it arrives!

I'm anxious to get it, though I don't know how much use it will get. It's hard to take my Insingo out of my pocket.

Awesome!

I do that as well. The other day I grabbed a thing of cheese, a pear and a knife and set them on the counter.

I helped my son with something and grabbed some chips and salsa.

A few hours later I came back and found my original snack

Two more showed up in the mail today, a new in box Cutlery Shoppe Exclusive Manix 2 in orange with S90v, and a "used" Manix 2 in S30v. The used knife apparently had a mm of tip broken off and it reprofiled, I couldn't really tell.
