Product Description

The CRKT Nathan's Wooden Knife Kit is a working softwood model designed to teach the next generation the fundamentals of knife safety and mechanical engineering. Developed by award-winning designer Glenn Klecker and his seven-year-old son, Nathan, this educational craft project allows children to build a functional lockback folder from precision-cut beech wood and bamboo. The assembly process creates a high-performance narrative for young makers, demonstrating how levers, springs, and locks work together to create a reliable tool. Whether you choose a quick press-fit assembly or a permanent build with stain and paint, this kit is the ultimate way for mentors to pass down the duty and obligation of responsible knife ownership.

Key Features:

• Complete 3.25-inch beech wood drop point blade and handle kit designed with safe, rounded edges for builders aged 7 and up.

• Fully functional lockback mechanism that operates exactly like a professional folding knife, providing a tactile and audible "click" when engaged.

• Tool-free assembly featuring precision-shaped parts that can be customized with sandpaper, glue, or paint to make a one-of-a-kind keepsake.
