Folding everyday carry knife (EDC), crafted by the famed Hawaii-based knifemaker Ken Onion.
The blade, featuring a Drop Point style, is constructed from D2 tool steel known for its solid resistance to wear. Outfitted with a flat grind and finished using the satin method.
Deployment of the knife is facilitated by the flipper, which doubles as a small guard when open, preventing the hand from slipping onto the blade. The IKBS bearing system provides smooth blade opening. Secure operation is assured by a Liner Lock mechanism.
The handle, ergonomically contoured, is made from G10 laminate and steel for maximum durability. Reliable daily carry is achieved thanks to the steel springy Tip-Up, Right Carry clip, enabling the knife to attach easily to a belt or pocket.

CRKT (Columbia River Knife & Tool) is an American brand of knives and tools, founded in 1994 by Paul Gillespie and Rod Bremer, former employees of Kershaw Knives. It gained worldwide publicity with the K.I.S.S. model, presented at the SHOT Show in 1997 - it sold out immediately and tripled the company's production capacity. CRKT built a reputation as a brand focused on innovation, as proven by its proprietary Deadbolt, Field Strip, and Kinematic systems, as well as the patented Veff-Serrations. The company is also known for cooperation with respected knifemakers such as Kit Carson, Ken Onion, and Liong Mah, thanks to which the range includes knives with distinctive character and functionality. Among the most recognizable models are the M16, Minimalist, and Pilar, which have become icons in the world of EDC and tactical knives. From the beginning of its operations, CRKT has consistently promoted the motto "Confidence in Hand" - emphasizing that its knives are meant to give the user not only a tool, but above all confidence in action in any situation.
