CRKT-M21-02 Folding Pocket Knife Designed By Carson, 3'' Spear Point Blade, Aluminum Handles, With Pocket Clip

The swedged and recurved blade is ground to a spear point shape, using premium AUS 8 stainless steel in non-reflective frost finish to offer superior edge retention. The grind incorporates a false top edge and deep belly, yet retains a full width central spine for most of its length for maximum strength. We offer both Razor-Sharp and Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point™ Serrated edge grinds. Lubrous washers at the blade pivot assure velvety-smooth one-hand opening and closing, using Kit Carson's trademark dual checkered thumb studs which also act as a blade stop. M21™ models feature the very popular "Carson Flipper" blade extension, which aids opening and acts as an additional blade guard. Kit Carson's open build uses contoured handles of 6061 T6 aluminum, hard anodized charcoal gray. They are CNC machined with a perimeter radius for a comfortable grip with or without work gloves, skeletonized to reduce weight. There is a single stainless steel locking liner with friction grooves for positive locking. We have also incorporated our patented* AutoLAWKS™ automatic knife safety into all M21 models. AutoLAWKS™, the Lake and Walker Knife Safety innovation taken to the next level. AutoLAWKS™ automatically sets a pin between the locking liner and the frame. This pin acts as an additional layer of safety, so the locking liner is less likely to disengage during use. To close the knife, pull the AutoLAWKS™ red button lever back, slide the locking liner over, and fold the blade into the closed position. Every model features a removable stainless steel clothing/gear clip. All fasteners, including the clip screws, are Torx®. **Please note: the images of the pocket clip shown on our website are no longer correct. Since we took the pictures, we made a running change to the M21-02 and the pocket clip is now attached above the pivot screw.
