CRKT Acquisition EDC Folding Knife

The Acquisition works through sweat, mud, rain, and blood. This tactical liner lock folder is small enough for everyday carry and burly enough for tough tasks and serious self-defense. The GRN handle is carved with a deep channel pattern and a finger groove for a secure grip in all conditions. Black scales, black liners, and a black oxide blade coating makes the entire knife non-reflective and low-profile. The blade is a unique shape, mixing the best parts of a drop point and clip point to provide clean slicing and powerful thrust cuts.

Why choose this knife?

• Modified drop point tip has surgical precision
• Channels in handle act as ooze grooves
• 8Cr13MoV steel has good edge retention
• Black oxide finish increases corrosion resistance
• Spine jimping improves blade control
• Flipper provides instant blade access

Why not?

• Heavy and bulky frame
• Narrow point tip is susceptible to breakage under force
• EDC Users may find the design too aggressive

Pro tip:
A flipper is a shark-fin like knob on the side of a blade that allows a knife to be conveniently opened with one hand. Pushing down on the flipper causes the detent, a tiny notch designed to hold the blade in place, to move and release the blade into an open position.
