The CRKT Avant folding knife is designed to be your go-to everyday carry knife. The spear point blade edge is made from satin-finished stainless steel (8Cr14MoV) for maximum durability and reliability. The blade is 3.175 inches long, and the knife is a total of 7.5 inches long when fully open. Its compact size makes it easy to carry, while its solid construction ensures that it is built for hard use.
The folding knife includes a flipper opening and a fast, smooth IKBS (lubed ball bearings) pivot to deploy the blade at lightning speed. The Avant also features a thumb disk for those who prefer a more deliberate, manual open. Once deployed, the blade is locked in place with a sturdy liner lock for one-handed closing capability.
The woven carbon fiber handles on the Avant are not only aesthetically pleasing but also provide a comfortable and secure grip while in use. The knife also comes equipped with a bronze pocket clip and pivot detail for a stylish touch.

Columbia River Knife & Tool (CRKT), is a Tualatin, Oregon-based manufacturer of knives, tools, and accessories founded in 1994.
CRKT means Quality. All CRKT knives and tools are built incorporating the most advanced equipment and production systems available, and quality is controlled from beginning to end. Knives are built the way they should be builtļæ½?without compromising quality in any part of their creation. CRKT accessories are crafted to the same standards as the knives, so that each sheath, for example, lives up to the customersļæ½? high expectations.
Sport & Work Knives
CRKT continues to 'think outside the box' by seeking out new and unique designs and mechanisms, just when everyone in the industry thinks they have seen it all. For example, the company is introducing the tiny McGinnis Shrimp, the
Gekkota Pocket and Golf, the ExiTool, Ta-Bar Tool, Norfork Diver and Whitewater, and Klecker NIRKļæ½? all exciting and unusual. At the same time, it continues to broaden itļæ½?s traditional knife models, including for the first time, Classic pocket knives, as well as the Centofante Tribute, Carson M4-02 series, and the Delegate and Vertex lines.
More natural and premium materials.
CRKT is continuing to specify the natural and premium materials that are common in the best custom knives, including more knives
with layered Micarta, G10, stag, jig bone, white bone, ram horn, and hardwoods such as thuya root, cocobolo, ebony, walnut, and burl.
