Last weekend at the 1500 was the first time I've ever seen a Sabenza in person. Of course, I jumped at the chance to fondle one. I asked the young man if I could take a look at it, and also asked him to point out the features that make it so special and explain them to me. After a less than fantastic sales pitch from him ("If I have to explain it to you, it isn't the knife for you"), I handled it for a few minutes, gave it back, and walked away. I have a fairly nice collection of Benchmades, Spydercos, Kershaws, and ESEEs at home, so I'm not a knife newbie. I've simply not moved into that price range yet. "Chris Reeve invented the framelock" or "the tolerances are very tight" won't get me there, either. I'm not trying to pick a fight, just looking for info. Someone PLEASE explain what is up with them.
