Product Description
The CRKT M16-FX brings the most popular folder series in CRKT history into the realm of high-performance fixed blades. Designed to honor the legacy of Kit Carson, this tactical powerhouse provides a high-performance narrative by pairing a 4.63-inch SK5 carbon steel tanto blade with a non-reflective black powder coating for superior durability. This is the first M16 model to feature Veff Serrations™, which offer unrivaled cutting power through rope, webbing, and fibrous materials. With its full-tang construction and aggressively textured black G10 handles, the M16-FX is built to withstand higher impact work and harsh environmental conditions, providing the reliability of a fixed blade with the iconic profile of a tactical legend.
