CR2075: Shrill Boot Knife, Designed by Matthew Lerch

CRKT

Serves and protects while you're doing the same. The Shrill tactical boot knife knows its place on a mission: keeping you and others safe. It's no wonder this fixed blade has the name it does. With a 4.769" double edged design it seems to pierce anything in sight. 

Matthew Lerch of Sussex, Wisconsin, has been balancing art with mechanics for over 31 years and he's raising the bar once again with the Shrill. It's a backup knife in the field or a go-to knife in the outdoors, on-duty, and everywhere in-between.

You're asked to work in all conditions. You should expect the same from your knife. That's why the Shrill features a versatile double-edged design with a lightweight 4.769" blade. If it weren't clipped to your boot, you might not even know it's there. But it makes its presence known when there's work to be done.

We made the Micarta handle tough for all conditions, yet stylish as well with a distinctive two-tone design. After all, just because you're battling a 4-alarm or a bad guy in the field doesn't mean you can't look good while doing it.

Just unleash the Shrill from its leather sheath attached to your boot or belt. The task at hand doesn't stand a chance.

An excellent budget knife
While this knife is might be a bit big for being a boot knife or a pocket fixed blade, this knife absolutely feels like it wants to be thrown. I haven't had the chance to try it, but I would imagine it would throw quite well. While there are a couple nitpicks, I can't reasonably complain about anything for the price of the knife.If I had to list the nitpicks, there'd be two of them. The sheath is good (honestly, it's better than some leather sheaths on other knifes I own), but I think a Kydex or some other plastic sheath would likely suit this knife better, though I'm not sure if that would be more expensive to manufacture or not.The full-tang construction is excellent, but the tang that makes up the outline of the handle could stand to be crowned a bit. It's not painfully sharp or anything, but I could see it causing some hot spots after extended use.All that being said, I would consider these to be legitimate complaints IF this knife was $100+. But with a price point of just under $60? These are simply nitpicks of stuff that would take this knife from 95/100 points to 100/100 points.

Nice sticker
Nice boot knife, well built functional knife and sheath; great backup.The flat construction of the knife facilitates covert carry well but fits my hand nicely, comfortably. Blade shape definitely pokey, penetrative, but capable of a good slice. Decent sized blade; not too big, not too small. Really appreciate the finger choils, definitely aide in handling and extraction. Quality blade at a great price. Oh, looks good too!

Beautiful, vicious knife.
