CRKT Kith Folding Knife 3" Blade Black

The CRKT Kith Folding Knife 3" Blade Black is a compact everyday carry folder engineered by renowned knifemaker Ken Steigerwalt for professionals, outdoor enthusiasts, and tactical users who demand reliability in a lightweight package. This folder bridges traditional design philosophy with innovative engineering, making it ideal for anyone seeking a versatile cutting tool that performs equally well on camping trips, at the job site, or in professional environments where dependable backup equipment matters.

The Kith features Steigerwalt's proprietary front lock design—a modern departure from conventional midlock and backlock mechanisms that delivers faster, more intuitive blade deployment while maintaining secure closure during use. The 3-inch blade geometry balances cutting capacity with practical carry dimensions, while the black finish resists corrosion and eliminates glint in tactical or outdoor scenarios. At just 0.15 lbs, the knife disappears into pocket, pack, or loadout without adding meaningful weight, yet the construction remains robust enough for repetitive cutting tasks and emergency field applications.

This knife benefits users in EDC rotations, emergency preparedness kits, outdoor recreation, and tactical operations where compact, reliable cutting capability is non-negotiable. The 4.75-inch closed length fits seamlessly into standard pocket carry, allowing discrete deployment when needed. Whether for utility tasks in austere environments or as a quality backup blade in professional settings, the CRKT Kith delivers proven performance and intuitive operation that keeps it accessible when seconds count.
