The Blade: The Insingo blade profile is unique in that it combines elements of a sheepsfoot/wharncliffe blade, yet still has a subtile curve to its cutting edge to provide increased utility.  Stonewashed finish.

The Frame: The inlaid Inkosis offer a different look as well as a different feel in the hand. The inlay pieces provide more of a radius than the traditional flat sides of the Inkosi. They are fit into precision machined pockets on each sale and secured. The micarta is black canvas and in keeping with the 'working knife' theme, the handle is sandblasted.

About this model: The Inkosi (Zulu word for 'chief') is the product of tried and proven design elements that have been continuously refined for over 30 years . With the Inkosi Chris Reeve Knives continues the evolution of the Integral Lock folder. Never content to rest on past success, Chris Reeve Knives has raised the bar again. Some of the highlights include:

  • Stability to the locking mechanism 
  • Larger, more 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
  • Upgraded, beefier, stop pin
  • Blade introduces CRK's Large Hollow Grind technology on a smaller knife and is 8% thicker than the Small Sebenza 21 
  • 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
  • Ceramic ball lock bar interface. This does not mean just a ceramic detent, but rather a ceramic ball that actually acts as the interface between the lock bar and the blade tang.
  • With its 2.75 blade length, the Inkosi is legal to carry in most locations.
