This is the second of two videos that aim to provide my overview and impressions of the Chris Reeve Knives Sebenza 31 after four months of ownership and use. In this video I share my practical experiences and opinions of the Sebenza 31 gained over four months of carrying and use, and compare it to those of using the Sebenza 21.
The first video is a tip-to-lanyard, inside-and-out comparison of the Sebenza 31 to the Sebenza 21 that it replaces. It discusses all of the physical design changes and differences between the two models of which I'm aware. That first video can be found at the following link:

I am not a professional knife reviewer, so if you are looking for a quick overview and review of the Sebenza 31 you can find plenty of great ones out there on YouTube and I recommend that you have a look at them... and give a pat on the back to the people that create them by giving them a "like".
While I'm more of a storyteller and prefer to tell the tales behind the knives in my collection, this video does provide a lot of practical information on these two Chris Reeve models. My story telling habit and detail-oriented nature come out in this comprehensive look at using these knives, and the differences in my experiences with them. This is a long discussion, so if you enjoy looking at knives, how they are used and carried, grab a drink, sit back and settle in for a bit!
