Young knifemaker Gerry McGinnis is not well known– yet– in the cutlery world. But he will be when the word gets out about his new production CRKT Tuition™ knife design. These locking liner folders offer the materials and quality usually found only in custom knives costing many times as much.
The Tuition is offered with Razor-Sharp edges or our exclusive combination patented* Veff™ Serrations for fastest cutting through rope, twine, netting, and vegetation. As an engineering student in college, Gerry thought his CRKT designs should be named after words that are foremost on his mind right now.
The Tuition™ is a compact and powerful work knife that is just right for shop and outdoor tasks. The broad sheepsfoot 2.88" blade has a high hollow grind that gives fast cutting, accurate trimming and excellent tip strength. Blade steel is premium 8Cr14MoV stainless steel in a satin finish.
One-hand opening is fast using the friction-grooved flipper, which also acts as a blade guard when open. Our stainless steel InterFrame build is exceptionally rigid, and features hand-shaped black and green layered polished Micarta® scales.
While stubby, the Tuition handle is shaped for grip, swelling at the palm and offering a deep finger choil that transitions into the flipper blade guard, plus thumb friction grooves. The custom stainless steel pocket/gear clip in satin finish is removable.
Feels and looks good. True to its purpose i carry it every day, and use it often. Only problem that I have with the knife is that the serration is not holding up very well.

This is a great knife - feels very solid in your hand and is easy to open. The colors on the steel portion of the handle change in the light and are very pretty. We gave this knife as a gift to all of our Boy Scouts who completed a 50 mile canoe trip (complete with engraving) and everyone was thrilled.
