Common Questions About the CRKT Butte

The CRKT Butte combines Lucas Burnley's traditional hunting aesthetics with the robust security of the Deadbolt locking mechanism. This series offers a practical everyday carry solution with an assisted opening system designed for easy one-handed operation.

What is the Deadbolt lock on the CRKT Butte?
The Deadbolt lock uses two hardened steel pins that pass through the blade tang to provide a high-strength lockup. To close the Butte, you press the button located at the pivot, which retracts the pins and allows the blade to swing shut safely.
Is the CRKT Butte an assisted opening knife?
Yes, the CRKT Butte series features an assisted opening mechanism for fast and reliable deployment via the flipper or thumb studs. This specific system is engineered with a compliant bias toward closure, making the Butte much easier to close one-handed than many other assisted knives.
What materials are used in the Butte series?
The Butte typically features D2 tool steel for the blade and durable G10 for the handle scales. The D2 steel provides excellent edge retention, while the stonewashed finish helps hide scratches from daily use.
What is the blade shape and size of the Butte?
The CRKT Butte features a clip point blade that measures approximately 3.4 inches in length. This shape is inspired by classic hunting knives, offering a fine tip for piercing and a generous belly for slicing tasks.
Who designed the CRKT Butte?
The Butte was designed by Lucas Burnley, a prominent knifemaker based in Oregon. This series is notable for being the first Burnley design to incorporate CRKT’s proprietary Deadbolt locking technology.
