Hello airscape,

Just received the stops to day.   I tried them on one old kitchen knife and so far they work great.  The screw length works fine for me.  If I need to shorten them it would be easy to do.  I do like the 7/16″ length, just long enough to twist on and off with my thumb and index finger.

That’s a beautiful collection, mine is not that good looking. Bottom Sebenza 21 is my EDC, I kind of like the worn in look of the scales. I think it gives the knife some character.  I had a Sebe 21 one tanto blade, black micarta inlays, I did not like the way it felt in my hands so I sold it.

Thanks for the tip! Yes my stones are still going through the break-in process and I’m using that to gain experience on the WE.  Forum member Marc help me with my stone progression which helps tremendously.

Reading about the mistake on your blade and cost of repair has taught me a lot, and I bet others that read this thread.

Ooops, Image is upside down not sure how to fix it.

I have four CRK two Sebenza 21, an Inkosi and a Mnandi.  Now that the Sebenza 31 is out I want one.  I have yet put a CRK on the WE, still training on junk knives.  I use one of the Sebenza as my EDC and since Sebenza means work, it get plenty of it. Right now I’m just hand stropping it with the green compound and it cuts good enough for me doing EDC task.

Hello Marc,

The case is the one without the wheels.

Instead of upgrading the arms and vice I upgraded to the new Gen 3 pro. The newer unit came in the same style hard case.

After talking to Kyle he said I could get the upgraded unit without the stones.

I do plan on getting a WE 130 to companion my Gen 3 pro later on.

Welcome Robert! I’m new as well with a Gen 3 Pro so we can learn together.

That sounds like a plan to me!

Welcome aboard Robert! As a survivor of a couple of back surgeries (last one was a failure) I can relate to your problems. Here’s hoping that your rehab goes well and that you get to enjoy your Gen 3 Pro.

Oh man, hope your back is OK now, thanks for the welcome.
