We have produced Kit Carson's popular M16® line in many variations over the past decade. Our glass filled nylon version has built the largest user base of all. These knives are built for function, not fad, and they are exceptional values.
Our new M16 ZLEK line uses our very successful InterFrame construction, with tough, textured glass filled nylon scales over a 420J2 stainless steel liner InterFrame and solid glass filled nylon back spacers. We assemble the handle with superior offset Torx® fasteners.
For professional use, we've added a seat belt cutter to the Carson Flipper, and a tungsten carbide window breaker at the butt. Automobile side windows shatter with one quick whack from the butt of the knife.
All components receive a tough tactical black coating. The Flipper can be pressed for fast one-hand opening, and creates a blade guard when open. We use our premium AUS 8 high-carbon stainless steel for the blades, which have Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point™ Serrated edges to easily cut rope, cord, canvas, and vegetation.
All three models are fitted with our exclusive patented* AutoLAWKS™ safety, which automatically makes them into virtual fixed blades when the blade is opened and locked.
M16®-13ZLEK. This mid-size M16 with spear point blade is a perennial favorite, with all the trademark Kit Carson features. A black stainless steel twoposition pocket/gear clip is included.
Full professional features. Non-reflective black finish. Exceptional affordability. Kit Carson rides again.

Just a knife? No way Great to pocket carry and had a chance to use the seatbelt cutter. Worked like a charm. Hope that I never to have to use the glass breaker, but I feel secure that if I have to, It'll work.

The M16-13ZLEK is my forth CRKT. I also have a Fire Spark, M21 and m16-10Z. The M16-13ZLEK has become my every day carry knife. I am a photographer specializing in auto, moto and velo action photos. I have been the first responder on too many occasions when something goes wrong. With the M16-13ZLEK, I hope I will be better prepared to handle the next emergency, but I pray I will never have to put the carbide tip or seat belt cutter to the test. Other reasons I like the knife are that is the perfect size, right between my fist filling M21-14sfg and the too tiny m16-10z. Living in Cali, I am a bit nervous carrying the Fire Spark, as there is no definitive word on whether the Outburst mechanism is legal in this state.
