I’ve owned and carried a CRKT M16-01S for quite a while now and I wasn’t looking for a new EDC when I came across this deal on the M21-04G (straight edge). I’ve known about the M21 series for a while now, but I never was in the market for a large folder until recently. So I did my research and believe me, there are some nice knives out there in the $80 price range that I was looking at. Most of the top rated knives in this price range have quality builds, but it finally came down to a few personal decisions which drew me to this great heavy duty, survival folder, made by CRKT and designed by Kit Carson. First and foremost, I really like the aggressive overall design, it’s a knife that doesn’t only look like it’s ready to take on just about anything you can throw at it, it was made too. In the reviews I read, I knew it was a popular Deployment Folder for military personnel around the globe but it was some of the other reviews I found which opened my eyes to the true potential of the M21-04G, as a serious survival folder. As soon as you flick the blade open for the first time, you’ll feel this solid and very smooth deployment which is quite impressive to say the least. Then you realize, wow this is one solid blade, it actually feels like a fixed blade!!! From the top looking down, you notice the thick .14” spine of the blade, then from the side you see the deep belly, drop point blade with a nice recurve feature added. When the blade is fully opened, the automated liner

This is actually a great little flashlight, which is perfect for EDC Packs or as backups in other situations where space and weight matters. A tactical two-way switch is both a useful and must have feature on any tactical light and then add enough power for close-up situations or work, it delivers again. Then the quality build and overall design makes it a great choice for anyone looking for a small, 24 lumen torch with tactical abilities and it can be carried anywhere with ease. I will be getting a few more as back-ups at this price!
