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. This version takes the "compact and overbuilt" philosophy to a new level, offering broader functionality and a premium aesthetic. With its earthy green micarta handle and high-performance steel, the Squid XM is a performance-focused folder built to tackle heavy-duty daily tasks with considerable ease and precision.

The Squid XM features a 2.95" drop point blade crafted from premium D2 tool steel, ensuring superior edge retention and exemplary durability. The rugged stonewashed finish hides wear from hard use while maintaining a clean, industrial look. Deployment is lightning-fast and fluid thanks to the combination of Ken Onion’s Assisted Opening technology and the IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system. The ergonomics are defined by a hybrid handle—featuring a high-traction green micarta front scale that develops a unique patina over time and a stonewashed stainless steel frame-lock back for rock-solid structural integrity.
