Columbia River Knife & Tool^® (CRKT^®) is proud to continue its successful line of knives designed for emergency rescue for firefighters, EMTs, highway patrol officers, and those involved in whitewater and underwater rescue.

We have modified some of our most successful designs for these rugged applications.

Handles have scales of tough glass filled nylon in high-visibility orange. We have chosen tough blade steels to withstand abuse, and given them a polished finish to resist corrosion. On the Bear Claw E.R., the glass filled nylon scales can be removed with a Torx^® tool so the full-tang blades can be thoroughly cleaned after use in muddy or salt water. Finally, we have priced them to be as affordable as possible.
