PR Intro Letter

To our friends in the media,

Thanks largely to your positive support, Columbia River Knife & Tool® (CRKT®) enters

our sixteenth year with the broadest line in our history. This packet includes access to all

the information you will need about our 2010 lines, but remember: samples of all

Included you will find:

• The 2010 CRKT Catalog, a 92-page document which is divided into three sections

covering our Sport & Work knife line, I.D. Works® tool line, and Professional knife line.

• Retail price lists.

• FTP Site. We have a fast ftp (File Transfer Protocol) site, which allows you to

download the press releases and photographs you need instantly.

Using Internet Explorer (or your favorite ftp program), type in the following URL:

ftp://ftp.crkt.com. Once connected, your Public Account is CRKTCUST and your

password is customer. There you will find:

• Press Releases in MS Word format, about CRKT and all product groups.

• Photography electronic files, including catalog photos and knock-outs on DVD as

RGB JPGs for web and print use. Usage notes are on the site. Larger high resolution files

are available on request.

In short, it is all available to you. Some highlights you will note:

• More innovations. As usual, we have come up with more new product breakthroughs,

many patented, in lock, release, safety, and multi-tool systems created by the brightest

designers. There’s a lot new to write about.

• More premium and natural materials. We continue to add new products using

premium steels and custom quality materials including layered Micarta®, G10, and

natural materials including bone and exotic hardwoods. We’re working to build custom

quality into production knives at affordable prices.

• Quality and value. We continue our practice of offering the highest possible quality at

very affordable and competitive prices. Our many Premium Value products offer an

amazing level of quality and value.

Best regards,

Rod Bremer
