CRKT Cleaver Girl Deadbolt

Drawing its name, presumably, from the raptor talon-like blade (a 4.1-incher made of D2 steel), the Clever Girl was designed by Iraq veteran Austin McGlaun as part of CRKT’s Forged by War program. Highlights include a back flipper, an IKBS ball bearing pivot, a G10 handle and a Deadbolt lock.

CRKT Septimo Liner Lock

Never bet against a knife designed by a former Green Beret with two purple hearts and six bronze stars to his name, such as Jeremy Valdez. The Septimo boasts a 3.62-inch tanto-shaped blade made of 8Cr13MoV steel with a unique Veff Serration perfect for cutting straps. Deploying via a back flipper, it also features an aluminum with glass-reinforced nylon inlay handle and a liner lock.

CRKT Snap Lock Folder

Designed by Ed VanHoy, the original Snap Lock easily won the Most Innovative Knife Award at Blade Show 2004. More than two decades later, it continues to mesmerize with deployment that involves pressing down on a cam lever and rotating the blade 180 degrees. This particular variant features a 2.55-inch 420J2 steel blade and a stainless steel handle.
