CRKT Du Hoc Deadbolt Folder
Item #: CL-2635
$154.95
This folding Karambit style knife was designed by Austin McGlaun named in remembrance of his uncle's D-Day landing at Pointe du Hoc. Much like the Rangers who scaled the 100-foot Normandy cliffs under heavy enemy fire, this knife does the impossible. It transforms Austin's large, fixed-blade karambit into a pocketable folding knife without sacrificing the notable strength of the original, thanks to a powerful Deadbolt® lock and a smaller—but still generous sized blade. Armed with Assisted Opening, the blade can be rapidly deployed with either the blade flipper or thumb stud.
Part of the Forged by War® program, Austin's charity of choice for this knife is the Idaho Backcountry Veterans. Established in 2016, the Forged by War® program spearheaded a collaboration between CRKT and Veterans, inviting real life warriors to apply their knowledge and experience to design a specialty line of mission-ready knives and tools. In addition to receiving commission on their designs, a portion of the profits are donated to the Veterans' charity of choice. CRKT is proud to offer this dedicated collection to support the participating charities on a national level.
The Karambit blade measures at 3-5/8" in length the D2 blade steel has a hardness of 60-62 Rc and has a black powder coating. The G10 handle with thumb ring provides an extra secure grip. Closed length measures 6-1/2". Black wash finished stainless steel liners. The lock is the powerful Deadbolt® lock. The deep carry pocket clip is blackwash finished and positioned for tip-up right or left hand carry. Weighs 8.4 oz. Made in Taiwan. Suggested retail is $195.00.
