Designer Jon Graham of Cleveland, Tennessee built the Razel™ GT around an incredibly versatile blade and equipped it with features to match. The multi-purpose stainless steel chisel blade is crafted for push cutting, slicing, scraping, and everything in between. When met with the Assisted Opening innovation, it’s unstoppable. Nudge the blade open part way and the innovation activates, snapping it open at super high speed. The IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system makes for a smooth rotation and a liner lock keeps it solidly in place between the burly aluminum handle.
Designed by a mechanic; crafted for camp, the shop, the office, and everywhere in between.
How Assisted Opening Works
It's held securely closed in your pocket, but initiate the deployment, and part way through the rotation the blade swings open at impressive speed for simple, powerful, one-handed opening.
Cleveland, Tennessee
Jon Graham of Cleveland, Tennessee, was born to a father who had an appreciation for knives, and at a young age he was taught the importance of a good knife. "At the age of seven I got my first knife, and haven't been without one since." In the late '80s while stationed at Aviaono AB Italy, Jon discovered handmade knives in a magazine and knew that was something he wanted to do. After getting out of the Air Force and settling into a job, Jon started making kit knives on a table with basic tools in 1994. Tired of making other people's designs, in 1999 Jon asked his brother Josh to go in on some equipment and learn how to make knives by stock removal. He has been hooked ever since, and constantly strives to improve his designs and skills, building on his experience as a diesel technician. Graham Knives specializes in utility tactical designs with an emphasis on E.D.C. fixed blade pocket knives, but his favorite knife line is the custom Razel with dual edges, which the company makes in many sizes and styles. He is designer of the CRKT Razel and Folding Razel.
