CRKT K.I.S.S. EDC Folding Pocket Knife: Compact Everyday Carry, Dual Grind Tanto, Serrated Frame Lock, Skeletonized Handle, Pocket Money Clip 5510

Currently own 3 CRKT knives, this one is the most practical knife and useful, on a daily basis than the others.. It fits in your pocket easily and can be used as a money clip(big plus here). The blade comes in handy more than the Carson M16 I have(in my edc, not on me).Commonly used to cut packaging tape or other nuisances. Since I use it as a moneyclip, there is often money in the clip when unfolding the blade. No issues with money getting cut when folding the blade back in, clearances are slim but not problem! It comes super sharp out of the box and does not become an issue inside your pant pocket. It is sharpened on one side to make the folded knife flush with the handle/frame and not cut up your pockets or legs. The clip is fairly large(consumes 3/4 of a folded dollar bill) but also tight(difficult when carrying all those one dollar bills for the stripper). Compared to the CRKT P.E.C.K., it is ~2.5x larger. I originally bought the P.E.C.K. but gave it to my friend since purchasing the K.I.S.S. Form factor is sleek enough to be used in a formal suit situation. As with all CRKT items that I have experienced, quality is top notch and a thing of beauty. The K.I.S.S. makes a great gift idea.

KISS stands for Keep it Simple Stupid. But there is nothing "simple"-looking about this beautiful knife. It is a work of art unlike anything I have ever seen. Traditional folding knives fold into a handle, but the KISS folds on the outside of the handle. Although the blade is exposed, it is sharpened and shaped in such a way to lie flat against the handle. So it's perfectly safe to clip to your pocket. As for use, it should provide a lifetime of light-duty use. Perfect for opening packages, cutting plastic ties, or most anything else you encounter in your daily modern civilized existence. This thing is solid and comes out of the box sharp! And it opens like butter. I received my first KISS knife as a gift, but lost it after a couple of years. I missed it so much that I bought myself another one from Amazon. I will NOT lose this one. Highly recommended knife for those who like their blades to be exceptional and out of the ordinary.

Great pocket knife sharpness is awesome holds an edge weight is nice and light nice smooth action opening and closing good value

I like these little knives. Blades are very strong. I can pry anything I want with them

I have owned this knife for years. I have also lost it a few times along the way and replaced each time (4X). While admittedly this is not the best multi purpose pocket knife, if you use it as intended it is a great little knife. The design is very cool. The blade is asymmetric and one side is flat so that it can slide closed on itself. I have never had it open by accident or cut me. I say that because when you first look at it that's the question that first comes to mind. It has always come quite sharp from the factory. This knife is for light cutting and can also be used as a money clip too. I personally just attach it to my pant pocket. It is very good for opening boxes, cutting plastic packaging, cutting rubber, cutting rope...well you get the idea what I mean by light duty now. I feel I must also mention that CRKT will fix and/or replace the handle or blade for the life of this knife. I have owned 4 of them but this last one's locking mechanism, which is a torsion spring incorporated into the handle pushed back and stopped working. I sent it back as the warranty instructions said and it was promptly fixed and mailed back to me. Very impressed by the way CRKT stood behind the product. That is rare these days.

Great knife that works as expected...very happy with this purchase

I've had a CRKT KISS pocket knife for over a decade; I only bought this one because I lost my last one! The design is incredible- it fits anywhere you put it because it's so delightfully slim. It's SHARP, too; and holds an edge for ages. This design was meant for single hand operation (right hand only); you can pull it out of a pocket, open and close it with only your right hand, which makes it ideal for quick things like opening boxes and such. Once you get used to it, it's up, out used and away with a simple hand movement. Will it cut you? Any blade can cut you if you use it improperly. The KISS comes with a handy illustrated instruction manual that lists how you should handle and store the knife. Follow the guide, use common sense, and no harm will come to you; I promise. :)

This is very dangerous injife there is no lock on the blade while in pocket this can open easy and cut you .This knife needs a re camp and add a lock while it’s in your pocket .

Tutto perfetto, bellissimo coltello.

Auch wenn es nichts zum Thema Qualität beiträgt, sei vorweg bemerkt: Dieses CRKT-Messer kann einhändig geöffnet und zudem arretiert werden – und ist somit aufgrund des herrschenden Waffengesetzes für das Tragen in der Öffentlichkeit in Deutschland verboten. Unabhängig davon ist es ein stabiles und aufgrund seiner Bauart flaches Messer, welches nach einiger Zeit der Nutzung immer noch seine Grundschärfe hat. Es passt in die kleinsten Taschen und der angebrachte Clip zur äußeren Befestigung ist wirklich sehr fest. Beim segeln hat es als Kappmesser bereits wichtige Dienste geleistet, wenn ich nur eine Hand frei hatte. Mein bereits drittes Messer von Columbia River Knife Tools – über die Qualität kann ich persönlich bislang nichts schlechtes sagen. Fazit: Kann man kaufen.

Funktionalität und Verarbeitung spitze!!! Ich liebe es! extrem scharf und imm er ein guter Begleiter! Würd ich jederzeit wieder kaufen!!

Peccato sia solo taglia piccola
