The CRKT Helical is a fusion of innovation and practicality. Designed by Ken Onion, a mastermind in knife design, this folding knife is not your typical everyday carry. Its unique twist, inspired by putting a rectangular knife handle in a vise grip and twisting, results in an unexpectedly ergonomic and supremely useful knife that will exceed your expectations.
One of the standout features of the Helical is its hardworking powder coated D2 tanto blade. This blade is incredibly sharp and robust, making it perfect for tasks such as opening boxes or snipping loose threads. The understated flipper allows for effortless deployment when you need it, while the locking liner ensures that the blade stays securely in place when opened.
But what truly sets the Helical apart is its twisted handles. Carefully designed to fit snugly in your palm, these handles not only provide a comfortable and secure grip but are also built to withstand any challenging environment. No matter how muddy, sweaty, or grimy the conditions may be, the Helical is up to the task.
As a Columbia River (CRKT) product, the Helical embodies the brand's commitment to quality and durability. Known for their exceptional craftsmanship, Columbia River guarantees that this knife will stand the test of time.
