CRKT Knife on cutting board surround by peppers.

CRKT knife

A knife that’s dressed for success. At first glance, it could be mistaken for a pen tucked into a shirt pocket, that’s exactly the way the CEO folding knife was designed. A supremely low profile and no corners cut on usability and ergonomics, this design embodies the working spirit of everyday carry.

CEO Compact

Specifically built for anything that needs to be cut. These compact fixed blade neck knives with tough handles come in a variety of different blade styles. In the woods or around the house they feel equally at home.

Minimalist® Cleaver

A noteworthy tool in history; a defining design in the CRKT story. The day Ryan Johnson of RMJ Tactical introduced us to his original design for the Woods Chogan™ T-Hawk in 2014 was a memorable one at our headquarters. Now, we’re releasing a CRKT.com exclusive replete with a black magnesium phosphate coating on the head for corrosion resistance, a durable leather sheath, and an aesthetically cool firewood-burned handle. The result: same badass tool. Entirely new look.

Woods Chogan™ T-Hawk

Where minimal design meets maximum utility. The Pilar® III with D2 Blade Steel transforms the minimalist’s sailor knife into a distinctly urban everyday carry folder while keeping the spirit of the classic and the epic tale behind its name. It’s still low profile and understated when tucked away, and carefully designed to punch above its weight when in use.

Pilar® III Frame Lock

Serve. Protect. The Provoke® Orange morphing karambit knife draws on ancient design but it’s hiding a futuristic secret. The first knife ever to feature Kinematic® technology, it stays neatly tucked away in transit and comes to life when there’s trouble afoot. Now built with Grivory®—a strong, lightweight, engineered thermoplastic—it’s more lightweight, adept, and crafted to go anywhere.

Minimalist® Keramin™

We have produced Kit Carson's popular M16® line in many variations over the past decade. Our glass filled nylon version has built the largest user base of all. These knives are built for function, not fad, and they are exceptional values.

M16®-13ZLEK Spear Point

If It Still Looks This Good a Year From Now, We Want It Back. This everyday carry pocket knife is designed just like the tactical version that inspired it—to be used. That's why it’s overbuilt with an open build frame, high carbon stainless steel blade, and the signature Carson Flipper. Admire it. Then put it to work. The M16® Z everyday carry series was designed by Vine Grove, Kentucky's legendary custom knifemaker and retired Sgt. Major Harold "Kit" Carson. After years of crafting knives for military use, he answered the call when it came to creating one for the civilian population. Now people everywhere have a blade that’s ready for the line of duty in whatever capacity they see fit.

M16®-10KZ Tanto

It’s a pistol of a knife: it obliterates tasks. This Lucas Burnley-designed everyday carry knife is compact in stature but packs some heat in the features department. It comes with a handle available in silver stonewash or black stonewash, a frame lock for safety, and friction grooves on the drop-point blade for a secure grip. Be careful where you point it.

Squid™ Thumbstud

Precision is power. Knifemaker Alan Folts introduces the Minimalist® Katana, a design that’s just as much about control as it is capability. Following in the footsteps of the original Minimalist® with a slightly larger blade, you can still revel in its lightweight, portable composition for on-the-road versatility. Grabbing hold of the three finger grip handle, you’ll know right away—this is a Minimalist® through and through.
