Chris Reeve Knives Inkosi Tanto Blade Discussion 

I have a small sebenza 21. I had a cold steel for a few years and ended up upgrading. I only use the cold steel camping now because It’s so sturdy

I went through that phase for about a year. I now only carry a Giant Mouse fixed blade, a small Inkosi Tanto, a James Brand Ellis and an Opinel #6. I sold off EVERYTHING else.

I was the same way for a long time, I finally sold a few of my knives, saved up a bit, and bought a sebenza. Haven’t looked back since, I can’t imagine carrying anything else.

I love my latge 21 Tanto

In no way shape or form inkose over umnazan . Only way is if you had to have the small. The umnanzan is a special knife design the inkose is just market segment filler

@@markw7303 This is the exact place I’m at right now. Want a tanto, the Zaan and Inkosi are the two contenders

@@musclebillcoaching inkosi is not worth owning in the long term. However with out getting an zaan in hand I don't want to do a recommend at these pricepoints with out a try before buy purely out of a ergonomics standpoint

He never does :p is it a compusion or prefrence. Some ppl theink the lock/clip side is ugly but on the same hand maybe reviewers feel theres a best side to the kife ( especially for video) i wonder if id buy a little rotating stand and just have it go round and round the whole time:p

Inkosi is really the most hard use knife CRK offers. All of them can handle pretty much everything you will put them through everyday, but the Inkosi is the most durable. Umnumzaan is great, but the stop pins/thumb studs being only pressured in makes it slightly less durable. In any case you should be just fine because CRK warrenty is amazing and they will fix/replace pretty much everything.

I don’t believe you even own a Chris Reeve knife.

One word LOCK ROCK they made the ceramic berring larger and thereforer with out perfect geometry in every other part of the build it poses and issue. Also there just ugly now especially with inlays talk to me when the 41 comes out maybe ill apreciate it by then. Remeber chris reeve is no longer part of the company soooooo take that for what its worth hand feel is also just plain akward and they have gone farther towards mkeing it just another "highend" edc knife. The thrill is gone baby

@FlamQ Dbltap yeah there are lots of the old ones on the used market let the frothing at the mouth diehards buy the 31!

@zombie food yourrr grammar are u petting your 31 roght now, drying its tears? Be aman attck my arguments not my unccrocrted while driving cell phone rants its obvious u care just enough but not quite all the way there to stand up for your feeeellls

Got the inkosi with the tanto blade with natural micarta inlays. Love it, those inlays really add to the gripability.
