Chris Reeve Inkosi folding knife, small SIN-1000
Chris Reeve
Chris Reeve Knives started in 1984 from a single garage attached to a house where Chris was living. The former motorcycle racer channeled his enthusiasm into knifemaking. He worked extremely hard by himself to put as much as possible into every one of his knives and run an independent business. He designed every model with a deliberate approach, taking into account how the knife works and the intended purpose of the knife. Chris Reeve Knives received the ”Manufacturing Quality Award” for twelve consecutive years, from 2001 to 2012, following it up with multiple products receiving ”Knife of the Year” awards.
Chris Reeve is proud to introduce the new Inkosi design, that continues to push the characteristics of the Integral Lock©. Inkosi is a new family of folding knives that will claim the position of Chief alongside the renowned Sebenza. Inkosi is the Zulu word for Chief, Sebenza is the Zulu word for Work.
Continually noticing small areas for improvement, whether in performance of manufacture, Chris has included
• stability to the locking mechanism
• a stout pivot coupling
• oversized phosphor bronze washers are the same size front and back, locate off the stop pin, and have extra-large grease pockets
• a sturdier stop pin
• the blade which is 8% thicker than the Small Sebenza 21 introduces CRK’s Large Hollow Grind technology on a smaller knife
• standard double thumb lugs
• pocket clip is mounted so that it rests on the spine rather than the lock bar, eliminating the possibility of pressure on the lock bar
