CRKT M16-13Z Knife

For years, Kit Carson's M16 designs have been our most popular series. And our Zytel version has built the largest user base of all. These knives are built for function, not fad. And they are exceptional values. The M16-13Z is a slim design with a 3.50" spear point blade. It is ideal for a variety of carry positions. It uses our very successful InterFrame construction, tough, textured Zytel scales over a 420J2 stainless steel liner InterFrame. We overbuild it for rigidity, using solid Zytel back spacers. And we assemble the handle with superior offset Torx fasteners. The handle is exceptionally rigid and fills the hand perfectly. We use our tough AUS 4 high-carbon stainless steel for the blades to give greater everyday utility, and offer a Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point Serrated edge. It features the Carson Flipper, which is not only an aid to opening the blade, especially when wearing gloves, but acts as a blade guard when the blade is open. We've also incorporated our patented* AutoLAWKS automatic knife safety, which converts the M16 Zytel series into virtual fixed blades when their blades are open and locked. It has Teflon bearings and a removable Teflon-plated stainless steel clothing/gear clip. Think of the M16-Zytel as a Clydesdale ready to rush a knight into battle or pull a beer wagon. Every day. Day after day. *U.S. Patent Nos. 5,596,808 and 7,437,822
