You should try the recent upgraded 25 - it's mind blowing. Thicker blade, better grind, higher 59 RC, thumbstuds on both sides by default, improved jimping. I'll shortly post the close ups that I did last week, and you'll get the idea...

Here they come...

Btw Tom Cruise carried a sebenza in one of ny all time favourite movies " Collateral".

What a lovely blade, the design, profile, ergonomic grip......
I am reminded of the song "Killing Me Softly"
Its sight was good enough to start the day with unmatched point & edge
Thanks for sharing!!!!

BTW Choombak what did you use to shoot the close ups ( Don't tell me your I Phone ) . Such shallow DOF and amazing clarity, a macro lense ?

Request Admins to include to "drool" smiley........ for such beauties, we need one!

Awesome tool, Choombak. And awesome photos, too! The blue thumbstud looks ........ (no words)! What are the scales made of?

Moin, dunno about the iPhone, but my S5 has a mode wherein you can get similar bokeh. Obviously (need I mention it?) not as good as a f/1.8 prime, but decent. Will send you a few through WhatsApp. There are, however, add on macro, wide-angle, fisheye, tele, etc. lenses available for phones. About 40 odd dollars. Plus shipping.

Panasonic LUMIX DX7, point-and-shoot. No fancy stuff, just plain POS.

Lovely blade Amar. Agree with Moin on the Sebenza.

Scales are bead blasted titanium. Blade is S35VN (a steel that Chris Reeve helped design).

Thank you all for your kind words, the Seb 25 is indeed a delight for the senses.

On a side note, the TSF Beast (4th from left) is built single handedly (and I mean literally - the maker has lost use of both hands and can only use one hand to build).

Choombak, diffuclt to beleive those are from a P&S camera .. BTW what's different in the 25 compared to the older 21, they seem very similar spec wise on paper. Has the street price of the 21 dropped after 25 ?

Seb 25 improves upon 21 on several counts: thick blade, different grind, improved ergonomics, higher RC hardness, better jimping, thumbstuds both sides default. Size wise they are same. There is no street price - there is one price for Sebenza. Seb 25 is $445.
