Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Opening it with the flipper is super easy and reliable. I now enjoy tackling the endless boxes that show up on the doorstep.

I love how sleek it is. Every day use. Excellent bit of hardware. Perfect for what i wanted and handsome, too.

The blade is razor sharp, holds an edge and is easy to sharpen back to an edge. The flipper doubles as a finger guard when the blade is fully deployed. The knife's excellent and super-sharp tanto blade has good piercing capability.

My only complaint about the design is the clip, it is excessively stiff. The pocket clip is also well-designed, and the handles allow for tip up/down, left/right placement.

The m-16-02ks is slim and fits the hand nicely. The holes provide effective axial points to rotate the knife into a reverse grip. The hole cutouts in the handles also make for an excellent grip, as it prevents any slippage.



Cons

If i loosen the screw it becomes uncentered and touches the frame when opening or closing. This knife is just meh.

Packaging/appearance


The holes also make anchoring and pulling the knife out of the pocket easy


It vanishes in the pocket even in snug jeans

Competitiveness


It replaced another crkt knife that i finally broke using as an axe


I want one under 3 inches with sandvik steel crkt


This crkt model is a good option for these situations


Ive owned other edcs from different companies and i must say that the crkt models such as this crkt m1602ks and the piet are co...  Read More
