A small, budget knife. Mechanically it's great, thanks to the use of bearings. The steel is good for the price of the knife. Overall, it feels very pleasant. I recommend giving it a try.
A straightforward and timeless folding pocket knife featuring a clip point blade crafted from 8Cr14MoV stainless steel, heat-treated to a hardness of 58-59 HRC and finished with a titanium nitride coating. Enhanced scratch resistance and the reduction of reflective glare on the blade surface are provided by this coating.
Textured scales made from G10 material cover the knife’s handle, offering improved comfort and reliable grip even in wet or freezing environments. Compact dimensions make the CRKT Drifter a practical choice for everyday carry.
A convenient clip enables secure attachment of the knife to a belt or easy placement in a 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.

CRKT has earned a reputation as a brand that focuses on innovation, as evidenced by its proprietary Deadbolt, Field Strip, and Kinematic systems, as well as its patented Veff-Serrations. The company is also known for its collaboration with renowned knifemakers such as Kit Carson, Ken Onion, and Liong Mah, resulting in knives with unique 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. Since its inception, CRKT has consistently promoted the motto “Confidence in Hand,” emphasizing that their knives are designed to provide the user not only with a tool, but above all with confidence in any situation.

Good budget EDC. The small size of this CRKT allows you to hide it in any type of pocket. Despite its small size, it fits quite well in the hand. I definitely recommend it for everyday use.
-
This is a very robust and compact knife that will fit even in a small wallet, which is a big plus. It is very sharp and, despite its size, is very comfortable and secure to use. Highly recommended.
-
Bought as a gift, apparently works great.
-
Very good product. I recommend it.
-
Nicely fitted parts. The sharpest of the 3 knives I bought from Militaria. The size is perfect for your pocket. The only odd thing is the lanyard hole – 2 holes in the scale without a sleeve, but it's fine overall.
-
Great handy knife. I am very satisfied with the quality and size.
-
Popular and inexpensive knife. Very compact size, operates smoothly even though it's not on bearings.
-
A really successful design, the materials may not be impressive – but it's great.
-
Small, handy, blade without assisted opening, shorter than 3 inches and with my favorite type of lock. Perfect EDC knife, even abroad.
-
As someone mentioned earlier – perfect for EDC. Lightweight and discreet, yet satisfactory in terms of quality. Similar to more expensive Sanrenmu with G10, etc.
-
Handy knife for everyday use.
-
Great handy knife. I recommend it.
-
A knife that every man should have, small, light, sharp, you don't feel it in your pocket. Very well made. I recommend it, and the brand speaks for itself.
-
Great folder for EDC. The G10 has a nice texture, which, combined with a strong clip, doesn't damage pants. The recurve on the blade makes sharpening a bit harder, but only slightly. The titanium nitride is great and doesn't wear off at all. The knife is pleasant to carry thanks to its weight and size, and the somewhat deep carry clip isn't intimidating to others. Overall, a great folder for little money.
