CRKT Knives
Forged to look its best when things get ugly.
When you’re in a combat situation in dark, CQB environments, you want something you can draw fast and use instinctively. Enter the Clever Girl™ Folder tactical knife with Deadbolt®.
As part of the Forged By War® program, Austin McGlaun of Columbus, Georgia, designed the Clever Girl™. It aligns with his philosophy that a knife is more than a tool. It’s a psychological deterrent that is very different from a gun—it tells your attacker very quickly that you mean business.
With a black, powder-coated upswept blade, this is a knife that is all about function. It’s here to protect you—be it in the field, on a mission, or in high stress environments. Just grab hold of the tough G10 handle that provides an exceptional grip and deploy it with a simple flipper opening. When it’s open, Deadbolt® engages: steel bolts interlock with the steel blade and the liners to yield outrageous strength. A prominent button sits at the pivot point for simple disengagement.
In the fight for your life, you want the Clever Girl™ Folder to have your back.
How Deadbolt® Works
Steel bolts interlock with the base of the blade when it’s deployed to yield outrageous strength. A prominent button sits at the pivot point for simple, intuitive disengagement without fingers crossing the path of the blade.
About the Forged By War® program
In 2013, Ryan Johnson of RMJ Tactical, designer of elite, military, tactical tomahawks, approached CRKT® with the news that he had been working with a few combat veterans that had returned from war with varying degrees of post-traumatic stress (PTS).
To help work through their challenges, they have been designing and forging steel into custom tools. Drawing from their experience earned in combat situations, they have been creating tools they wished they had available to them in the battlefield.
CRKT® cares deeply about our returning veterans and we saw a way to give back to the community that created them. In 2016, we launched the Forged By War® program.
These are mission ready tools, designed by veterans, with a portion of the proceeds donated to the veterans’ charity of choice.
Mission ready tools that are Forged By War®. Learn more here.
Austin McGlaun’s charity of choice for this tool is OATH, an organization that aids veterans with disabilities through outdoor activities and Christian support groups.

Fraxion Flipper Knife 2.75″ BlackWashed Clip Point Blade, Black G10 Handle with Carbon Fiber Overlays 1160
$74.00 Add to cartFraxion Flipper Knife 2.75″ BlackWashed Clip Point Blade, Black G10 Handle with Carbon Fiber Overlays 1160
Kershaw Fraxion 1160. This contemporary and stylish knife has been designed by Danish custom knife and toolmaker, Jens Anso. He has designed the handle to have G-10 scales and carbon fiber overlays. This is a fantastic way to enhance beauty and make this knife lightweight- a fraxion less than most knives this size. The black wash finish on this 2.75 inch blade will help keep everday scratches to a minimum. The steel is made with 8CR13MoV with a black-oxide BlackWash finish. This does open the good old manual style- KVT manual opening- but there is a small flipper on the back as well. The Fraxion will be one knife you can not be without. Pocket clip can be changed from left to right. Even though this knife is a manual folder, it opens just as fast as an assisted opener thanks to the flipper on the back of the handle. In fact one of our staff mistaken this knife for an assisted opener when unpacking it for the first time!
