Nice bit of kit .

I like this knife , it is light weight the lockup is tight and secure and I can open and close 1 handed in either hand . The flipper acts as a small yet effective hand guard .

Love this knife going on at least 4 years.

Work, hunting, fishing. This knife has not left my side since I took it out of the box. As anything you want to last takes fine tuning and cleaning.

Nice EDC Knife

I've been using the same brand of M16-10ks well over the years with a medium EDC to carry around all the time, but it was a bit small for my hand size. The length doesn't make much difference, but the handle is a little slim... There's also an M16-14sfg, but this is a bit of a burden for EDC. (It's really great to use for camping!!) I bought the M16-12z because I wanted a slightly more appropriate size to use as an EDC, and it's just the right size, and I'm really happy with it!! There is not much difference in length compared to 10ks, but the blade and handle are a little chubbier. It is good to have a safety device, and the Zytel body has a good grip and feeling (less cold). Perhaps because of the Teflon bearing, the knife feels much softer and better to open. When you open the blade with a flip, sometimes your finger hits the safety lock, and then the sound snaps when the blade opens, and the mechanical feeling is so good. One thing... I wouldn't call it a disadvantage, but the clip is so powerful that it needs to be fixed somewhere and put a lot of strength to pull it out. Weak clothes might rip... :D Other brands are also good products with completeness, but the CRKT brand's products are reliable in completeness and well-polished. I'm so happy to have another perfect EDC knife!!

Pretty Good

I love this knife, it's small, lightweight and affordable. The one bad thing about it is it is pretty hard to open. The thumb stud is difficult to use and for the flicker you have to apply a great amount of force.
