CRKT M21 Carson Folder with G-10 Handles
Item #: CL-M2104G
$59.95
When a series like Kit Carson's aluminum handled line has been so successful, it is bound to spark calls for variations. In this case, the request was for a spear point blade similar to Kit's M18 design.
The 3-7/8" swedged and recurved blade is ground to a spear point shape, using premium 8Cr14MoV stainless steel at 58-59 Rc. with a non-reflective black titanium nitride finish to offer maximum corrosion resistance. The grind incorporates a false top edge and deep belly, yet retains a full width central spine for most of its width for maximum strength.
Teflon® bearings 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.
The M21 features 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 textured black G-10. The textured G-10 provides great grip, is very durable and lightweight. There is a single stainless steel locking liner with friction grooves for positive locking.
Columbia River has also incorporated the patented AutoLAWKS® into the M21 models, which converts them into virtual fixed blades when opened.
So there you have it. If you love the Carson line, but your work tasks demand a deep bellied blade, the M21 is the series for you. Same premium build, same functional features, same long life, same excellent value. Measures 5-3/8" closed and has a removable Teflon plated stainless steel pocket clip. Weighs 5.9 oz. Made in China. Suggested retail $99.99.
