M16-13SF description
Our aluminum InterFrame build SF folders share a unique design offering a combination of Carson M16 Series features requested by military procurement specialists. The dual grind Tanto blades were specified because they offer maximum strength. The open build allows two Carson Flippers to be incorporated, resulting in a true hilt— very rare in folding knives.

The M16®-13SF Slim Profile Aluminum features a 3.50" (89 mm) dual grind Tanto blade and is ideal when weight and bulk must be kept to a minimum.

Blade, frame and hardware are non-reflective tactical black. The blade receives a black titanium nitride coating for maximum corrosion resistance. Kit's trademark dual checkered thumb studs are standard. One-hand opening and closing is quick and smooth.

It also features our exclusive patented (1) AutoLAWKS automatic safety, which turns the folder into a virtual fixed blade automatically.

Our aluminum frame SF features contoured scales of textured, hard anodized 6061 T6 aluminum, with a perimeter radius for a comfortable grip with or without gloves, stainless steel liners with friction grooves, and premium AUS 8 stainless steel blades. Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point Serrated edges are standard.

All knives in this series are equipped with clip options that allow four-position carry on belts or webbing. Caution: These knives are not designed for tip-up in-pocket carry. They are special knives, designed by the military for special forces use.

I have carried this knife for several years now. I lost my previous one and recently purchased a replacement. My replacement has the AutoLAWKS. I liked it better when engaging the LAWKS was a choice.

Had a previous copy of the M16, heavy version and put a lot of duty hours on it without failure. Lost that knife, although suspect it was removed from luggage during international travel. Just received the M16-13SF which has a smaller grip surface but the dual flippers compensate for less grip surface. I am always pleased with CRKT products and this one is no exception. Whether the Filet Knife I purchased last year or the other M16s I've purchased for myself or friends and partners, they are well designed and quality products. LWM, Cheyenne, Wyoming

The features of this knife are great. It was well designed and works as advertised. Well worth it.

I bought this knife over 10 years ago and have used it daily. After all this time and hard use it never failed me. I am now sending it in to be "tuned up" as the blade has a very little up/down wobble when opened. Looking forward to 10 more years.

great knife had it for a few years now. its been a favorite. only thing i dont like is that i keep losing screws to the clip they always come loose. ****** CRKT Response - We Loc-Tite the screws at the factory to prevent them from loosening. If you have problems with your clip screws put a dab of Loc-Tite on them. That should solve the probelm.
