Product Description
The CRKT Inara is a refined everyday carry knife designed by custom knifemaker Richard Rogers. It provides a high-performance narrative by pairing a 2.75-inch 8Cr14MoV stainless steel Wharncliffe blade with a sleek, low-profile silhouette. The blade features a non-reflective blackwashed finish and a fine, precision tip that excels at detailed cutting tasks. Its unique handle design utilizes textured black G10 on the front for a secure grip and blackwashed 2Cr13 stainless steel on the back to house a robust frame lock. Engineered for smooth action, the Inara uses the IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system for lightning-fast deployment via the thumb stud.
