Razel Fixed Blade PR

custom Graham Razel™ in 2001, most knife blades came to a single point. Not the Razel.

It’s a cross between a chisel and a razor with a knife handle. The result gives two useful

Razor-Sharp™ edges, one for pushing or tapping, and the other for precise cutting. You

also get two strong blade points. The Graham concept has been very successful with

custom versions in a variety of sizes and styles.

The Columbia River Knife & Tool® (CRKT®) production Razel models follow the

Graham concept faithfully, with very thick full-tang blades of premium 9Cr18MoV

(similar to 440C) stainless steel in a brushed finish, hand-contoured Micarta® handles,

and custom-fitted Kydex® sheaths.

How are mechanics, carpenters, farmers, and home craftsmen using their Razel models? Jon

Graham reports: Scraping gaskets, removing paint and stickers. Chiseling to make reliefs,

mortises and tenons. Prying tight-fitting parts. Cutting things like paracord, wire insulation,

radiator hose, plastic ties and tubing. Taper reaming a hole with the twist of the wrist.

Reaching into tight spaces and push cutting with the chisel edge. Opening feed bags and

cutting through bales of hay. You name it, the Razel does it.

Our Stubby Pocket Razel™ has cutting edges of 1.0” and 2.15”. The comfortable contoured

Micarta handle makes this a tool you can use for hours. There is a flat at the end of the handle

for tapping, and friction grooves at the blade spine for the thumb. It’s an ideal everyday carry

for the craftsman.

The Ringed Razel™ has cutting edges of 1.125” and 3.0”. The handle terminates in a ring

for the little finger. You can use this tool in the wettest, slickest conditions without fear of

losing your grip.

Our Razel™ SS7 is a humongous 13.8-ounce work tool with the look of a cleaver and the

heft of a hatchet. The full-tang blade is 0.25” thick with cutting edges of 1.70” and 7.25”, plus

a 3.70” top cutting edge with patented1 Veff™ Serrations. The butt features a bottle and jar

opener, plus a hardened steel window-breaker tip. Use it to cut through thickets and to release

tangles of rope or nets. Its Kydex® sheath features our patented2 quick-release system.

They’re three extremely high-quality work tools, built to custom standards, each one unique

in the knife and tool world. And just about every serious craftsman we show them to, wants

one immediately.
