CRKL311000: Large Sebenza 31

Chris Reeve Knives

In the Sebenza, Chris Reeve Knives makes one of the finest premium folding knives on the planet, and after more than three decades since its introduction, the Sebenza 31 has been continually refined through the years to maintain its position as arguably the best pocket knife ever.

Sebenza means "work" in Zulu and these knives are intended to do just that. Built with handcrafted care at a production level, the Sebenza 31 has earned a worldwide reputation for rock-solid performance and a 'bank vault' feel. It is the knife that introduced the world to the frame lock over three decades ago, formally named the Reeve Integral Lock, and they still do it better than anyone. The "31" model uses a ceramic ball interface between the lockbar and the blade for stability and longevity of the mechanism, which is even more long-lasting than the steel interfaces that the competition use.

The Sebenza 31 is currently offered with a CPM-MagnaCut hollow-ground blade at a 63-64HRC to retain a sharp edge with easy maintenance.

Fantastic knife
My boyfriend has always wanted this knife since he was a little boy. I was able to get it for him for a graduation present and I’ve never seen him so happy. Typically he carries a knife on him, wherever we go. Now seeing him carry this knife makes me extremely happy.

5 star, incredible lifetime knife
Don’t mind the 4 star review, this knife opens fine with one hand ;) In all seriousness, the Sebenza 21 and now the 31, is one of the greatest designed and most well built knives made… ever. This is a knife that you can own for life and trust that it will serve you, then your children and grandchildren well. It’s that well built. The blade metal is amazing and sharpens great, plus the cutting geometry is outstanding. Plenty of belly in the drop point and really thin behind the edge to slice great. The large and small size are equally useful and both carry outstandingly well in the pocket. The frame lock is incredibly strong, the lockup is rock solid and the pocket clip is outstanding. Buy once, cry once… you won’t regret owning, using and enjoying a Chris Reeve Sebenza.
