Columbia River CRKT M16-14SF Special Forces Combo Edge Knife Special knives from CRKT for professional use. Designed with military special forces in mind, the M16-SFs are "folding fixed blades" with a true hilt.

These knives share a unique design, offering a combination of M16 Aluminum Series features requested by a military procurement specialist. The dual grind Tanto-style combination edge blades were specified because they offer maximum strength. The M16 open build allows two Carson Flippers to be incorporated, resulting in a true hilt--very rare in folding knives. Blade, frame and hardware are all non-reflective black.

The SFs also feature the patented* Lake And Walker Knife Safety (LAWKS®), which effectively turns the folders into fixed blades when actuated.

The result is a design that gets blasé knife enthusiasts suddenly excited. When open, with LAWKS actuated, it offers the strength, rigidity and safety of a hilted fixed blade. Release the LAWKS lever, release the locking liner, and it folds to an easily carried length. You have the advantages of a fixed blade without the disadvantage of a costly sheath carry system. Two sizes are available.

The CRKT production aluminum frame SFs are based on Kit Carson´s custom M16 design. They feature contoured handles of textured, black, hard anodized 6061 T6 aluminum, with a perimeter radius for a comfortable grip with or without gloves. Stainless steel locking liners with friction grooves, for positive locking. AUS-8 stainless steel blades, chosen for edge retention and durability, with non-reflective black titanium nitride coating for maximum corrosion resistance. Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point Serrated edges for rugged cutting tasks.
