These knives
have a unique design offering a combination of M16 Aluminum
Series and features requested by a military procurement specialist.
The dual grind Tanto-style combination edge blades were specified
because they offer maximum strength. The M16 open build allows
two Carson Flippers to be incorporated, resulting in a true
hilt— very rare in folding knives. Blade, frame and hardware
are all non-reflective black.
The
SFs also feature the patented* Lake And Walker Knife Safety
(LAWKS®),
which effectively turns the folders into fixed blades when
actuated.
The result is a design that gets knife enthusiasts suddenly excited. When open, with LAWKS actuated, it offers the strength, rigidity and safety of a hilted fixed blade. Release the LAWKS lever, release the locking liner, and it folds to an easily carried length. You have the advantages of a fixed blade with--out the disadvantage of a costly sheath carry system.
M16-14SFA
Big Dog. This is our hefty utility version, with a 3.875” (9.8
cm) blade and full size handle with butt pommel which is exceptionally
useful in tactical situations. Weight is kept to 5.4 oz. (153
g).
The
CRKT production aluminum frame SFs are based on Kit Carson’s custom M16 design. They feature contoured handles of textured, black, hard anodized 6061 T6 aluminum, with a perimeter radius for a comfortable grip with or without gloves. Stainless steel locking liners with friction grooves, for positive locking. AUS 8 stainless steel blades, chosen for edge retention and durability, with non-reflective black titanium nitride coating for maximum corrosion resistance. Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point™ Serrated
edges for rugged cutting tasks.
One-hand
opening and closing is quick and smooth, the result of precision
tolerances and Teflon® bearings. The ambidextrous thumb stud with checkered surface provides instant access in any circumstance. Each knife comes with two stainless steel black Teflon-plated clothing/gear clips, extra screws and a Torx® tool, allowing four position carry on belts or webbing— tip
up, tip down, left or right.
The “A” in the item designation refers to the knife being made in Columbia River’s
new state of the art US factory.
