Rancher 1 1450x1450

A knife that’s dressed for success. At first glance, it could be mistaken for a pen tucked into a shirt pocket, that’s exactly the way the CEO folding knife was designed. A supremely low profile and no corners cut on usability and ergonomics, this design embodies the working spirit of everyday carry.

CEO Compact

A noteworthy tool in history; a defining design in the CRKT story. The day Ryan Johnson of RMJ Tactical introduced us to his original design for the Woods Chogan™ T-Hawk in 2014 was a memorable one at our headquarters. Now, we’re releasing a CRKT.com exclusive replete with a black magnesium phosphate coating on the head for corrosion resistance, a durable leather sheath, and an aesthetically cool firewood-burned handle. The result: same badass tool. Entirely new look.

Woods Chogan™ T-Hawk

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

Built for your toughest battles – with boxes. The M16® stainless steel series comes from a long line of military tools. Now you can conquer civilian tasks with this everyday carry version of the legendary M16® knife. Featuring a black EDP blade finish built for corrosion resistance, a frame lock for safety, the Carson Flipper deployment system, and Triple Point™ Serrations; it’s almost more than you need. Almost.

M16®-10KSF Tanto

Homage: Paid. The M16® is the most popular series that CRKT® has ever seen. We’re humbled to do right by the revered custom knife designer Kit Carson with this new frame-lock iteration of his legendary tactically-inspired everyday carry folding knife. This one is more than just a fresh take on a classic. It’s a true tribute to one of the greats.

M16®-04KS Tanto

For years, Kit Carson's M16® designs have been our most popular series. And our Z version has built the largest user base of all. The M16®-12Z uses our very successful InterFrame construction, tough, textured glass-reinforced nylon scales over a 420J2 stainless steel liner InterFrame. We overbuild it for rigidity, using solid glass-reinforced nylon back spacers. And we assemble the handle with superior offset Torx® fasteners. The handle is exceptionally rigid and fills the hand perfectly.

Nathan's Knife Kit has been widely adopted as the go-to teaching tool to instill knife safety and responsibility for youth worldwide. Award winning, Oregon based designer, Glenn Klecker and his son Nathan, developed this wood knife kit as a family crafts project that is not only a great engineering lesson in how a folding knife works, but also a creative woodworking project that can be painted, stained, or drawn on for fun.

The Drifter Black is an everyday carry folding pocket knife with durable handle scales and a stainless steel drop point blade. The knife features an interframe build with stainless steel liners and a stainless steel pocket clip. It is available in both G10 and stainless steel handle versions. Never drift off course.

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.

There's nothing like the real thing. The original K.I.S.S.®, with its Tanto-inspired blade and bead-blast finish, is the revolutionary high-tech statement by Knifemakers' Guild member and K.I.S.S.® designer "Daddy K.I.S.S." Ed Halligan. It stands for "Keep It Super Simple." The Original K.I.S.S.® blade shape is Tanto-inspired—Chisel-Point grind on the front and flat on the backside—so that when the blade is closed onto its handle/frame, the precision fit effectively "seals" the cutting edge to the frame, even though it's exposed. Both Razor-Sharp and Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point™ Serrated edge grinds are available. Both blade and frame are 3CR13 stainless steel in a fine bead-blast finish.

K.I.S.S.® Keep. It. Super. Simple.

The design of the K.I.S.S.® series pocket/money clip permits them to be used in a variety of ways: clipped to the pocket; as a money clip knife; and with split-ring or lanyard, as a key chain knife.

There's nothing like the real thing. Delilah's P.E.C.K.™ (or Precision Engineered Compact Knife) is Ed's baby, weighing less than 1 oz. and only 2.625 inches long when closed. Just think of it as a sweet little K.I.S.S.® When open, the graceful 1.75" Razor-Sharp Wharncliffe blade is a high-performance cutting tool suited for hundreds of daily tasks.
