The Zytel EDCs are the best value in the work and sport knife world.
That starts with textured Zytel® scales and a dual 420J2 stainless steel liner InterFrame. Assembled with Zytel back spacers and Torx® fasteners, the result is amazingly rigid. Zytel is a fiberglass-filled nylon that offers excellent toughness and resistance to solvents. Teflon® bearings at the blade pivot and an adjustable pivot screw allow for perfect blade action.
Blades are AUS 4 high-carbon stainless steel which gives an ideal combination of toughness and edge-holding ability in a work knife, and also allows easy field-sharpening. Standard models have a bead blast finish, while our new “K” models have a black EDP finish
The M16®-10KZ features a dual hollow grind Tanto-style black EDP blade with Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point™ Serrated edges similar to our “Big Dog” M16s. The result is maximum blade strength and ability to saw through cord, webbing, nets or vegetation quickly.

All models feature the Carson Flipper, which speeds opening of the blade and acts as a blade guard when the blade is open.
Also, AutoLAWKS™ knife safety was implemented into all models, which automatically actuates when the blades are open, making these folders into virtual fixed blades when locked.
Add to these features the standard removable Teflon®-plated stainless steel clothing/gear clip plus the CRKT limited lifetime warranty, and you have one of the truly great knife values of our time.
