CRKT Ancestor Folder
Item #: CL-5930
$64.95
From the manufacturer:
A nod to the iconic knives that came before it, the Ancestor is a folding knife that balances old-fashioned style with modern convenience. Made from tough D2 blade steel, the knife is ready for hard use, with improved slicing capabilities thanks to the upswept tanto profile—a shape that originated in another millennium. The liner lock and IKBS™ ball bearings ensure safe and smooth action, while the G10 handle has excellent grip and comes in a striking pattern that's reminiscent of classic wood or gemstone. The Ancestor is an everyday carry that you'll be reaching for today, tomorrow, and years to come.
The 3-1/2" upswept tanto blade is made from D2 steel with a hardness of 60-62 Rc. The satin finished blade pairs nicely against the layered brown and black G10 handle. The low profile blade flipper opens smoothly with the IKBS™ ball bearing pivot. Measures 4-5/8" closed. The pocket clip is positioned for a tip-up carry. Weighs 2.8 oz. Made in China. Suggested retail is $99.99.
