Product Description
The CRKT Bona Fide is a masterwork of "futuristic usability" designed by legendary knifemaker Ken Onion. This model provides a high-performance narrative by pairing a 3.52-inch 1.4116 stainless steel blade with the revolutionary Field Strip Gen II technology. Inspired by the traditional Hawaiian waʻa (canoe), the sculpted OD green aluminum handle offers a lightweight yet incredibly durable frame that feels solid and stable in the hand.
-
Field Strip Gen II Technology: Allows for a complete, tool-less takedown of the knife into three components for deep cleaning. Simply slide the handle lever up to disassemble and purge the pivot of grease, oil, or field grime in seconds.
-
Black PVD Coated 1.4116 Steel: The modified drop point blade is treated with a Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) finish, significantly increasing corrosion resistance and surface hardness while providing a sleek, non-reflective tactical look.
-
IKBS™ Ball Bearing Pivot: Features a high-performance ball bearing system that reduces friction to nearly zero, ensuring the blade snaps open with a lightning-fast, liquid-smooth flipper deployment every time.
