Product Description
The CRKT Squid XM is a distinguished creation, meticulously conceptualized by Lucas Burnley as the robust "Extra Medium" evolution of the widely admired original Squid, taking the "compact and overbuilt" philosophy to a new level.
The 2.95-inch drop point blade is crafted from premium D2 tool steel, ensuring superior edge retention and exemplary durability, with a rugged stonewashed finish that hides wear from hard use while maintaining a clean, industrial look. Deployment is lightning-fast and fluid thanks to Ken Onion's Assisted Opening technology combined with the IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system. The ergonomics are defined by a hybrid handle — a high-traction green Micarta front scale that develops a unique patina over time, paired with a stonewashed stainless steel back secured by a robust button lock for rock-solid structural integrity.
