CRKTM16-14SFG EDC Folding Pocket Knife: Special Forces Everyday Carry, Black Serrated Edge Blade, Tanto, Automated Liner Safety, Dual Hilt, G10 Handle, 4-Position Pocket Clip

I was spending a ton of time doing research on the knife that I wanted. Everyone has their tastes and preferences including me so it was a bit much looking for just the right one with the right feel out of the millions of knives out there. I was looking for a sharp, sturdy knife. One that will take a beating and will not fall apart. I was actually considering the cold steel recon and then somebody referred me to CRKT and man I was glad they did. The the price this knife was it. Out of the box, it had a really nice feel. The grip feels good, and the blade is just amazing. I am aware that the veff serrations tend to dull out or the tips bend after certain usage. I've been using mine for 2 months now on various things ranging from cardboard, ropes to wood and plastic and everything in between and this knife still chews through it all. I bought a sharpener with it to keep it stupid sharp and I know that this thing will last me a very very long time.Pros.-Grip feels just right, mind that this knife is slightly bigger than your average pocket knife, but I have big hands so it works out perfectly.-After broken in, for a non-spring assisted knife this one has sssuuuccchh a crisp sound when flipped open.-Looks like a fixed blade when opened, and also helps prevent hands from slipping onto blade when in use.-Looks great-Incredibly sturdy. Asides from regular use, I've thrown, dropped, tossed, bent this thing and it still opens the same, no wiggling anywhere whatsoever. The entire knife still completely intact with nothing loose. I took a friends CRKT, non serrated, I stuck both of these into a tree staggered and we climbed up the tree using those knives. we put our entire weight on those, hung from them and still afterwards, functioned like it just came out of the box (I am 5'11" and weigh in at 180lbs). Minus the paint obviously gone in some places from wear and tear.I love this knife and would recommend it to anyone!

The blade has held its edge remarkably well over time, it does require sharpening even after years of regular use which is a given. The automated liner safety adds an extra layer of security, giving me peace of mind when carrying or using it.The G10 handle is both tough and comfortable to grip, even in challenging conditions. I also appreciate the dual hilt design, which offers excellent control and prevents my hand from slipping. The 4-position pocket clip is another thoughtful feature, allowing me to carry it exactly how I prefer.This knife has been part of my daily carry for years, and it still functions flawlessly. The build quality is outstanding especially for the price and it’s clear that CRKT designed this knife to last. Whether you’re looking for a reliable EDC tool or a knife for more specialized tasks, the M16-14SFG is an excellent choice. Highly recommended for anyone seeking durability, performance, and overall great quality!

Woooo buddy! This blade is spectacular! And I do not give that kind of recognition lightly. Probably even less so when it comes to every day carry folders, I'm very picky.Lets start with the handle: as expected, high quality. Not plastic, but a compressed glass fiber makes for a sturdy heavy housing. It feels great in your hand and your fingertips land just right in the hole punches.Blade: came razor sharp out of the box. Love the shape of the tanto tip, i find the corner tip of the top front of the blade perfect to press into materials then drag for a great cut. And the serrations are vicious. I mean absolutely eviscerating. The black finish is nice to but it will scratch with heavy use.The best part though is the dual hilt. It is part of the blade so it will not ever come loose and provides a great level of extra security so your hand will never slide up onto the blade, not to mention how it sits nicely on the top of your hand.Locking mechanism: Again, outstanding job providing yet another level of safety. I have personally had blades pop loose when exerting great force while locked and trust me its not something you ever want to happen. We're talking definite stiches. This knife will probably never fail like that. It does take a day or two before you can get it down to a nice swift movement, pulling the safety and sliding the lock to the side, but it will become natural quickly.All in all this is one of the best knives in my EDC collection. I love the size too, you can feel it in your hand. It's there. And it feels great. Dependable. Sturdy. I would hate to be at the wrong end of this piece.
