A very practical model for everyday carrying. The opening is smooth, the blade handles various tasks well, and the whole product is carefully made.
A folding knife designed for everyday carry (EDC). The blade features a tanto profile and is crafted from stainless steel 12C27, finished with a black protective coating. Deployment is quick via the flipper, which also serves as a finger guard to reduce the risk of slipping onto the blade.
An ergonomic handle forged from stainless steel 2Cr13 provides a secure grip. The blade is locked in place when open using a frame-lock mechanism integrated into the steel handle. Renowned for strength, reliability, and ease of maintenance, this type of locking system ensures stability. A steel clip facilitates convenient daily carry, accommodating both tip up and tip down positions.

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.

The knife is light, comfortable, and very practical for daily use. The blade cuts well, the mechanism works reliably, and the whole thing looks modern and solid. I highly recommend it.

The knife works very well for everyday use, it's lightweight, comfortable, and can be opened quickly with one hand. It fits nicely in the hand, looks tactical, and gives the feeling of having really solid equipment with you.

I have had the knife for about a year. I specifically wanted this model and I am 100% satisfied. The sharpening angle I use is 15°, which I think is the perfect balance between a razor-sharp edge that's easy to dull (as with 10°) and one that's harder to dull (as with 20°). I honestly recommend it to everyone. Additionally, the sharpener. Personally, I have four stones: 400, 800, 1200, and 2000, and in my opinion this selection is OK, but I recommend choosing according to your own preferences. Highly recommended.

I have had this knife for a short time. However, I am disappointed. The knife is blunt, and there is a problem with opening it. For such a brand, I could have expected a better-made construction.
