CRKT Facet Knife

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.

Move with the instincts of a velociraptor. 
The tactical, fixed-blade Clever Girl™ can help you claw your way out of hairy situations with its powerful, upswept blade. This version adds additional utility in the form of Veff Serrations™ to easily saw through things like rope, and a marbled G10 handle for added flair and all-weather grip functionality.

From ancient mythology to the last frontier. Knife designer Darriel Caston named the Mbombo™ after a Kuba god of creation and based the design on a custom knife he was commissioned to make for the crew of a SpaceX mission. With a Damascus steel cleaver blade that propels open like a rocket and a sleek titanium handle that glides into a pocket, its unique design and capability make it a suitable EDC for any environment, from urban to outer space.

Power in simplicity. Designed by Darriel Caston of D Rocket Design, the MinimalX™ is an evolution of a knife originally made for SpaceX to commemorate a rocket launch. Darriel’s work caught the eye of someone in the company who commissioned him to make a custom series of knives for the crew. The MinimalX™ is all about fitting as much strength and durability into as small a package as possible, for a capable everyday carry you can take anywhere—even to outer space.

This model features MagnaCut blade steel that delivers exceptional edge retention and a titanium handle for lightweight strength. Finished in a flourish of artistic detail that evokes Michael’s custom designs. As beautiful as it is rare.

Ready to pursue what’s next. The Pursue is one of two limited-run CRKT® knives designed by visionary custom knifemaker Michael Walker. Inspired by one of Michael’s original zipper blade customs, it features a unique handle shape with an oversized pivot that tapers down to a slim end for a comfortable fit in the hand. The Pursue is available in two color variations, with this model featuring a Super Dense Twist™ Damasteel® blade and a blue Fat Carbon Dark Matter handle. Both feature a mother of pearl pivot. The lightweight folder is easy to open and close in one hand thanks to both IKBS™ bearings and a liner lock, one of Michael’s many transformative inventions that has been adopted by knifemakers everywhere.

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.

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.

P.S.D.™ II (Particle. Separation. Device.)

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.

A.B.C. (All. Bases. Covered.)

An everyday carry evolution. A member of the Crossbones family, the Kalbi is a versatile everyday carry knife that’s been upgraded with Japanese Acuto 440 blade steel for improved edge retention. The practical elegant design of the Crossbones returns, now with an un-missable blue aluminum handle that sets this knife apart as something special.
