Product Description
The CRKT Avant is a sophisticated everyday carry folder that captures the spirit of a custom boutique knife, designed by the talented Eric Ochs. This model provides a high-performance narrative by pairing a 3.18-inch 8Cr14MoV stainless steel drop point blade with premium aesthetic touches like a rounded spine and polished finish. The handle is a masterclass in texture and contrast, featuring woven carbon fiber layered over black G10, accented by striking bronze-anodized hardware on the pivot, thumb disk, and backspacer.

Custom-Inspired Aesthetics: Features a high-polish satin blade with a crowned (rounded) spine and eye-catching bronze accents, delivering the "look and feel" of a custom Eric Ochs piece at an accessible price point.

IKBS™ Ball Bearing Pivot: The blade deploys with "dream-like" speed and smoothness via the flipper tab or the integrated thumb disk, rotating on a high-performance ball bearing system.
-
Carbon Fiber & G10 Hybrid Handle: Combines the lightweight, high-tech appeal of woven carbon fiber with the durability and grip of G10, providing a sophisticated executive profile that doesn't compromise on strength.
