A lightweight, folding everyday carry knife (EDC) crafted by renowned knifemaker Ken Onion. The Homefront Compact is modeled after blades from the World War II period.
Features a Drop-Point blade with a sleek black plain edge, made from S35VN stainless steel prized for its outstanding corrosion resistance. The blade sports a DLC (Diamond-like Carbon Coating) finish for added durability.
Handle scales are constructed from robust, lightweight G10 material with aluminum reinforcement. Ergonomic contouring combined with an anti-slip texture provides enhanced grip security.
A flipper mechanism allows for rapid blade deployment and doubles as a cross guard to prevent hand slippage onto the blade. Ball bearings in the pivot ensure fluid mechanism operation.
Supplied with a spring-loaded clip for convenient attachment to a belt or pocket edge. A dedicated lanyard or keychain hole is located at the handle’s end.

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.
