The knife is worth its price... the steel and sharpness so far have caused no negative feedback after a few days of intensive use and getting used to the CRKT double lock. The knife is big for a folder but at the same time light and handy, the fantastic G10 handle is a good solution. A product worth recommending.

Another version of the highly sought-after M21-14 model, crafted by Kit Carson. The knife keeps the classic Spear Point blade profile, featuring an improved belly that enhances its cutting performance. Dependable safety is provided by dual locking systems—Liner Lock and AutoLAWKS. Outfitted with Veff serrations set at a 60-degree angle, the blade excels at slicing through ropes and other resilient materials. What sets the Special Forces variant apart are its dual cross guards, which effectively stop your hand from slipping onto the blade, even in extremely wet environments.
The handle introduces a new material—scales made from G10 composite replace the previously used aircraft-grade aluminum. This upgrade offers superior grip through an aggressive texture, exceptional resistance to both mechanical and chemical damage, lighter overall weight, and low-specific heat insulation properties—providing a cooler grip in summer and a warmer feel in winter.
The knife includes a pocket or belt clip, adaptable to four different positions, giving users the freedom to customize their carry style.

Beautiful knife, the mechanics are top-notch, simple and solid. Some people have had it for 15 years and it still works. However, the blade didn’t impress me, and I have to order the tanto version.

Unfortunately, I cannot edit the comment below, but I feel obliged to correct it. The product, which did not meet my expectations, was exchanged for another without any problems.

I am very disappointed. The knife arrived slightly damaged (paint on the blade), a small defect but still. Oh well. I expected a razor-sharp tool, but in my opinion, the knife is simply dull. It's hard for me to believe that a product costing over 400 PLN could be like this. I once got a joke ‘rambo’ knife, cheap, poor quality, and useless, for a quarter of this knife’s price, and it is much sharper than this product.

Another folding knife from this company. Solid, razor-sharp. The only downside I noticed is that the knife guard is very close to the lock after unfolding, and you have to get used to that. For people with larger fingers, it may be less comfortable.

The knife is very precisely and solidly made! Very strong construction! The handle provides a strong and very secure grip. The guard can be a bit of a hassle when folding... The blade cuts brilliantly: as a test at work ;) I tightly rolled up a pizza box, held it in my left hand, and with my right hand cut through it quite easily in one pull (!) – the teeth cut as well as they look. In my opinion, the knife is worth its price ;) I recommend it!

A solid, sharp folding knife with a reliable blade lock.

Full professionalism!

Very well made. Super smooth opening and an open construction that makes cleaning easy. Excellent cutting properties and the serrations are easy to sharpen.

The knife is worth its price, well made. It will definitely last for many years. I recommend it.

I have been a happy owner of this model for several years. Very solidly made, good steel. I recommend it.

M21-14SF – I get it :) This version with G10 scales may be lighter, but the steel unfortunately leaves a lot to be desired :/ The knife tends to break during tougher work in Veef. However, the M21-14SF version with AUS8A steel and aluminum scales is much better... I also have the M21-04 version, and I honestly recommend this one http://www.militaria.pl/crkt/noz_skladany_crkt_m21-04_p3086.xml

The knife is worth its price... The steel and sharpening haven’t caused any negative feelings so far... after a few days of intensive use and getting used to closing with the double CRKT lock, I think it was a good purchase. The knife is quite large for a folder, but at the same time light and handy, the G10 handle is fantastic and a good solution. Definitely recommendable product.

The knife looked very good on the website, the description and specifications were very encouraging, so I bought it. Now, to reality. My first impression was disappointment, and it hasn’t improved since. Firstly, it is very uncomfortable, doesn’t sit well in the hand, which makes you feel like you have no control and it might slip out of your hand. Next is opening and closing the blade. The system, while stable and secure, is inconvenient, stiff, and heavy. There is no smoothness or freedom of movement. You can’t close the blade using one hand. As a tactical and survival knife, it should be as simple and quick to operate as possible. After stabbing the blade into floorboards, scratches appeared; maybe I’m exaggerating, but in my opinion, it won’t take long for the beautiful black to turn into a scuffed coating, which is not aesthetic. Another minus: for this price, a sheath could easily be included. The pluses come from the description, and I don't dispute those, aside from what I've mentioned. Summary: I don't recommend it unless it fits your hand and you’ve checked. If I had checked earlier, I wouldn’t have bought it.
