CRKT M16-14ZSF Tanto w/Serration by Kit Carson

The service men and women of the coalition forces in the Middle East and Afghanistan require cutting tools that can stand up to the harsh demands of the desert. Our Carson Desert Tactical Folders have been developed specifically to blend into the desert environment. 

Our M16^®-14ZSFmodel features our super rigid InterFrame build with 420J2 stainless steel liners, threaded stainless steel back spacers, and Desert Camo pattern Zytel scales. The blade is a non-reflective bead-blast finished AUS 4 stainless steel. It blends and almost disappears in the desert. 

Our tactical SF model features two Carson Flippers, resulting in a true hilt when the blade is opened. Our Big Dog Zytel version has a 3.875" (98 mm) blade and full-size handle with a pommel which is exceptionally powerful in tactical situations. Weight is a hefty 6.3 oz. (179 g). 

Each M16-14ZSF comes with two stainless steel Teflon-plated clothing/gear clips, extra screws and a Torx^® tool, allowing four-position carry on belts or webbing— tip up, tip down, left or right. Please note: These knives are not designed for tip-up in-pocket carry. 

It features our exclusive patented* AutoLAWKS^™ safety, which automatically turns the folder into a fixed blade when the blade is opened and locked. 

One-hand opening and closing is quick and smooth, the result of precision tolerances and Teflon^® bearings at the blade pivot. The dual ambidextrous thumb studs with checkered surfaces provide instant access in any circumstance. 

The blade has Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point^™ Serrated edges.
