CRKT " Snap Fire " CRKT's production Snap Fire is based on Ed's award winning custom Damascus Snap Fire, which was named Most Innovative Knife at the 2004 Knifemakers' Guild Show. In this folder, Ed's compression lock allows the blade pivot to move, unlike any other folder we know of. The pivot is on a sliding block recessed in the aluminum frame. Pressing down on the pivot wheels with the thumb lowers the spring loaded pivot block, releasing the AUS 8 stainless steel blade from the stainless steel locking post. This lubricated mechanism is sealed by brass and bronze plates, designed to give a lifetime tight fit. CRKT also designed one pivot plate to act as a knife safety. Press the lever forward, and the knife becomes a virtual fixed blade. Pull it back and you can fold the knife. To cut weight, the 7075 T6 gray anodized aluminum frame is CNC machined to the minimum. The Teflon plated stainless steel skeletonized blade guard keeps the blade from accidentally opening, and reflects the design of the removable pocket/money clip on the opposite side of the frame. The modified drop point blade is long enough for real work tasks. It has a bead blast finish and is available in Razor-Sharp edge. Four holes help lighten this already lightweight knife. The Snap Fire's thumb wheels are stainless steel with a spectral titanium nitride read more
