After the incredible success of Kit Carson's original aluminum M16 Series, CRKT began to get comments like this, "I love my M16 Big Dog, but I wish I had a bit more compact size that I could carry every day, both on the job and at leisure." These requests reached the point that Columbia River could not ignore them, so here they are: the M16 Compact EDC (Every Day Carry). While they were at the task of scaling down and refining the designs, they decided to offer models with both black and British racing green handles, and with non-reflective black titanium nitride coated blades. The contoured handles are long enough for real work tasks. They are still 6061 T6 hard anodized aluminum, CNC machined with a perimeter radius for comfort. A stainless steel locking liner with friction grooves gives positive locking. They also incorporated the patented Lake And Walker Knife Safety (LAWKS) into all compact M16 models, which converts them into virtual fixed blades when engaged. As in the larger models, premium AUS-8 stainless steel was chosen for blade steel, for its edge retention and durability. Both Razor-Sharp or Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point Serrated edges are available. All models feature the "Carson Flipper" extension to the blade, which aids opening and acts as an additional blade guard. The CL-M1600 and CL-M1610 feature Tanto-style blades with dual hollow grinds. They offer maximum strength in a blade of this size. The CL-M1601 and CL-M1611 have spear point blades with a false edge on the spine. It is a versatile ulitity blade for a variety of jobs. One-hand opening and closing is as velvet smooth as the larger M16s, the result of Teflon® bearings at the blade pivot. The ambidextrous thumb studs with checkered surface provide instant access in any circumstance. All models feature a removable black Teflon plated stainless steel clothing/gear clip. Not novelties, but real work knives - high performing little guys, like jockeys and featherweight boxers. And they can still be a hand full.
