CRKT M16 – Tanto – Partial Serration – Zytel Handle (M16-10Z)

Here is CRKT M16 – Tanto – Partial Serration – Zytel Handle (M16-10Z) with a glass filled nylon InterFrame build. 

That starts with textured glass filled nylon scales and a dual stainless steel liner InterFrame. Assembled with glass filled nylon back spacers and Torx^® fasteners, the result is amazingly rigid. Glass filled nylon offers excellent toughness and resistance to solvents. Lubrous washers at the blade pivot and an adjustable pivot screw allow for perfect blade action. 

The blade is AUS 8CR15MoV high-carbon stainless steel with a bead-blast finish, which gives an ideal combination of toughness and edge-holding ability in a work knife, and also allows easy field-sharpening. 

TheCRKT M16 – Tanto – Partial Serration – Zytel Handle (M16-10Z) features a dual hollow grind Tanto-style blade with Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point^™ Serrated edges similar to our “Big Dog” M16 models. The result is maximum blade strength and ability to saw through cord, webbing, nets or vegetation quickly. 

Of course, if features the Carson Flipper, which speeds opening of the blade and acts as a blade guard when the blade is open. 

This knife features AutoLAWKS^™, the Lake and Walker Knife Safety innovation taken to the next level. AutoLAWKS^™ automatically sets a pin between the locking liner and the frame. This pin acts as an additional layer of safety, so the locking liner is less likely to disengage during use. To close the knife, pull the AutoLAWKS^™ red button lever back, slide the locking liner over, and fold the blade into the closed position. 

Add to these features the standard removable stainless steel clothing/gear clip plus the CRKT limited lifetime warranty, and you have one of the truly great knife values of our time.
