The looks of a classic WWII knife with the fit and finish of a modern favorite. A high-end version of the impressive original, Ken Onion’s Homefront™ Compact is a distinguished folding knife with a liner lock. It has a shorter drop point blade made of premium S35VN steel and includes details like a traditional non-assisted flipper opening and a lanyard hole for easy fob customization. Contrasted with the light G10 handle, the black blade in a DLC finish gives this everyday carry a look that commands attention.

Exacting precision, exquisite style. From world-renowned custom knifemaker Ken Onion, the Stylus™ is a lightweight and low-profile pocket knife that deftly balances form and function. This version offers upgraded materials compared to the Stylus™ Assisted, including a titanium handle and powerful CPM® S35VN™ blade steel, and forgoes assisted opening for a classic feel.

Old West character meets modern utility. The Redemption® is based on legendary knifemaker Ken Onion’s Deadman’s Hand custom, a tribute to the knives carried by the outlaws and poker players of the Wild West, and named after the aces-and-eights hand Wild Bill Hickok purportedly held at the time of his death. The Redemption® brings this classic folder into the modern age and is Ken’s first CRKT knife to incorporate a Crossbar Lock. Made in the U.S.A. in collaboration with Hogue Knives, it uses CPM MagnaCut blade steel for incredible strength and edge retention.

This tactically-inspired everyday carry urban tactical knife proves that form follows function with swept finger grooves, a formidable blade, and the Assisted Opening innovation. Whatever the need, you’re good to go through anything with this bad boy of a blade.
