Product Description
The CRKT Kith is a modern evolution of the traditional folding knife, designed by veteran knifemaker Ken Steigerwalt. Taking its name from the Old English word for "friend," this model provides a high-performance narrative by reimagining the classic lockback into a unique front lock design. By utilizing the natural flexibility of the glass-reinforced nylon (GRN) handle, Steigerwalt has created an intuitive locking mechanism that is both lightweight and incredibly easy to operate, making it a reliable companion for any "kith or kin."
-
Innovative Front Lock Mechanism: Features a unique locking system where the release is integrated into the front of the handle; this allows for an intuitive, one-handed closing experience that feels like second nature.
-
Ergonomic GRN Handle: Crafted from durable, high-strength glass-reinforced nylon with a deep finger choil and textured scales, providing a secure and comfortable grip for extended cutting tasks.
-
Versatile Drop Point Blade: The 2.95-inch 8Cr13MoV stainless steel blade features a clean satin finish and a high flat grind, offering an excellent balance of slicing efficiency and tip strength for everyday utility.
