## Description

The M16 –SS EDC Series - A proven knife design platform made simple, made tough, and made affordable.If you are a fan of the Kit Carson designed M16 tactical folding knives you are going to want to check out these stainless steel (SS) variations.Handles are shaped and contoured in the same confident grip M16 style, but are crafted of a retro flavored stainless steel. Handles are all finished in a classic black oxide finish. These folders are available in several blade style options including cutting edge configurations, each with their own user advantages to offer. Blades also feature the Carson Flipper for quick and convenient blade actuation—and the flipper doubles as an effective blade guard in the open position. Blade lock up is secured through the traditional framelock mechanism.The M16-SS EDC Series is a straight up, "no frills" every day carry folder design that kicks butt in pure performance and value.Specifications:Blade Length: 3.06" (77.72 mm)Edge: CombinationSteel: 8Cr14MoVBlade Finish: EDPBlade Thickness: 0.098" (2.49 mm)Grind: HollowClosed Length: 4" (101.6 mm)Open Length: 7" (177.8 mm)Weight: 2.6 oz (73.71g)Handle: Stainless SteelStyle: Folding Knife with Frame Lock

Review: Excellent small EDC knife - Owned this knife for over 2 years and it deserves a good review. Upon receiving the knife, it was smaller than I expected, even after watching videos and looking at pictures of it. Handle feels like the width of 2 ballpoint pens laid together, so it's not for heavy use, but this makes it completely dissapear clipped in your pocket. Lightweight and deep carry clip make it easy to forget about. I got the tanto tip and serrations, which look cool, but if I had to do again I would do away with the serrations. I don't find much use for them and they just make it harder to sharpen. A lot of reviews mention the AutoLawks extra spring lock, and truthfully, unless you're a complete moron, this is simple and nothing to complain about. Very easy to get used to, even in your non dominant hand. In fact, when I use other knives without it, they feel unsecure. There is no spring assist with the flipper, something I'm used to with previous Kershaws. This knife requires a motion similar to aggressively flipping a light switch off. Stays as sharp as can be expected, nice size, looks good and works great, could not be happier with a $30 knife. Note: The first knife that was sent to me through desertcart was very stiff. With all the strength in my pointer finger, (and I don't have weak fingers..I got some buff fingers) I could not use the flipper to deploy the blade. Sent it to CRKT and their replacement has been working flawlessly since.
Review: A Great EDC Knife - This knife has the famous CRKT quality and unique doubly secure locking feature. It is very lightweight but surprisingly strong and the blade was very sharp right out of the package. Once locked open to close it you need to pull the red dot locking lever back and simultaneously move the liner lock aside. All of that happens with one hand. Opening it is fast and easy. Just pull the stud and the blade flips out and locks. Again with just one hand. The blade is substantial and nearly as long as a large folder weighing twice as much. Altogether these features make this one of the best knives to keep with you. My only caveat is I don't think 440c stainless has the edge retention of some of the better knife steel. The good news is that the blade is pretty stout and occasional sharpening is something most of us are willing to do. Still, I would happily pay a little more for a high end steel and the amount used to make a blade this size probably doesn't cost that much.
