Assisted Knife

Like an extension of your hand. Flavio Ikoma made the Bot to be the knife you reach for instinctively and use effortlessly. Designed to feel as natural in your hand as possible, it plugs into your subconscious, giving you immediate feedback and precise, almost automated control. And it’s built for speed, with Assisted Opening and IKBS™ bearings to propel the blade smoothly into position, where it’s held securely in place by a powerful Deadbolt® lock.

Fast, powerful, portable. Jim Hammond’s original P.S.D.™ earned its name (Particle. Separation. Device.) for its ability to cut through just about anything, anywhere. The P.S.D.™ II brings that same capability to a smaller, more portable folding knife, shaving over an inch off the total length. You’ll still find a corrosion-resistant, full-recurve blade and Assisted Opening with IKBS™ bearings for fast and easy one-handed operation, but now in an improved form factor for everyday carry.

Engineered for rapid response time. Jim Hammond’s A.B.C. (All. Bases. Covered.) makes its return in an even more versatile form. Now a folder, it brings the varied capabilities of the original fixed blade to a more convenient and compact design. And thanks to Assisted Opening and IKBS™ bearings, it’s still ready to spring to action at a moment’s notice, while the G10 handle provides a strong grip even in adverse weather.

Custom knife maker and Knife makers' Guild member Kit Carson is widely known for his M16® design. This Kit Carson production designed M4™-02 lightweight knife model features white bone scales and contrasting black G10 bolsters, hand contoured like a Carson custom. This model features Outburst® assisted opening. The Outburst mechanism instantly brings the blade fully open after you have manually opened the blade approximately 30 degrees. M4 models have dual thumb studs for ambidextrous one-hand opening and bronze bearings and lubrous washers at the adjustable blade pivot for smooth, fast action.

Ready to strike at a moment’s notice. When a paratrooper is stuck on a static line, every millisecond counts. That’s the high-stakes situation that inspired the Taco Viper®, an Assisted Opening knife that springs to action in the blink of an eye. Antonio Rodriguez's charity of choice for this knife is the <a href="https://www.gwotmemorialfoundation.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Global War on Terrorism Memorial Foundation</a>. Established in 2016, <a href=" https://www.crkt.com/forged-by-war" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">the Forged by War® program</a> spearheaded a collaboration between CRKT and Veterans, inviting real life warriors to apply their knowledge and experience to design a specialty line of mission-ready knives and tools. In addition to receiving commission on their designs, a portion of the profits are donated to the Veterans’ charity of choice. CRKT is proud to offer this dedicated collection to support the participating charities on a national level.

A fresh take on a classic. The late, great knifemaker Kit Carson is widely known for his M16® design, but his most consistent selling custom model has been his classic M4™. This latest version, the M4™-02M, features a striking satin-finish blade and a handle made of white micarta with black G10 bolsters. It’s not just a great-looking M4™, it’s one of the classiest folding knives you can get.

Built of nostalgia. Inspired by the legendary Tony Bose’s custom Lanny's Clip, the Lanny™ everyday carry folding knife takes a classic slip joint style and brings it into the future with the Assisted Opening innovation for incredibly fast opening speeds. Call it your most nostalgic, yet futuristic carry.

Top of the class. Setting out to design a knife as sleek as a classic ‘57 Corvette, knifemaker Eric Ochs came up with the Delineation™. While its anatomy might flaunt a smooth and slender silhouette, there’s no question this folding knife was built to perform. Designed with Ken Onion’s Assisted Opening for swift single-handed deployment, the Delineation™ jumps into action for the everyday mission. Both classy and capable, it’s the functional trophy for your pocket.

Sharper than a hawk’s vision. Knife designer Liong Mah achieves design minimalism without sacrifice to impressive functionality. With the Mah-Hawk™ knife, a compact, everyday folding knife built with Ken Onion’s Assisted Opening and Flavio Ikoma’s IKBS™, you know you’re in a good place to face whatever the day throws at you.

Jumping out of the history book and into your pocket. Like an old-world Persian fixed blade, the Ritual™ tactical folding knife has a long, drastic blade curve and a substantial handle. But what makes it fit for a modern carry is the powerful Assisted Opening innovation that snaps open at lightning-fast speeds. It’s perfect for doing battle in ancient Persia and for making quick work of a package on your doorstep.

Ritual™ Assisted

You won’t know where the blade ends and your hand begins. 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.
