Crkt Dually 1.72" Folder Bead - Blast Finish Plain Edge Black

The CRKT Dually 1.72" Folder Bead Blast Finish Plain Edge Black is a compact slip-joint folding knife engineered for everyday carry, tactical applications, and general-purpose cutting tasks. Designed by CRKT Knives—a trusted name in American knife manufacturing—this blade serves professionals, outdoor enthusiasts, and everyday users who demand reliability in a pocket-sized package. The modest 1.72-inch blade length and lightweight profile make it ideal for those seeking a discreet yet functional cutting tool that complies with carry restrictions in many jurisdictions.

This folder features a high-carbon stainless steel blade with a practical plain edge and a refined bead-blasted finish that resists glare and reduces visible wear. The slip-joint mechanism provides smooth, secure opening and closing without the need for locks or assisted deployment, making it simple to operate and maintain. The handle is constructed from glass-reinforced nylon (GRN), a durable synthetic material that withstands harsh conditions, resists corrosion, and offers superior grip stability compared to unmodified plastics. At just 0.14 lbs, the Dually remains nearly unnoticeable during extended carry, while its compact 4.75-inch closed length fits naturally into a pocket or pack without bulk.

First responders, tactical professionals, and minimalist knife users will appreciate the no-nonsense design and proven slip-joint reliability. The plain-edge blade excels at general cutting—opening packages, food prep, cordage, and utility work—without the maintenance demands of serrated edges. Law enforcement and security personnel benefit from the compact form factor and the absence of tactical aesthetics that might draw unwanted attention. Whether you're building a backup knife collection or seeking your first quality blade, the CRKT Dually delivers professional-grade construction in an understated package suitable for boardrooms, job sites, and wilderness alike.
