Columbia River Knife and Tool (CRKT) created the new K.I.S.S knife, a small switchblade that mixes style with functionality.
Taking the design down to the basics, the new knife is just a blade and handle with no other flashy features. With the ability to fold down, it can fit into any pocket while still having an easy-open thumb stud feature for quick use that can be used with just one hand. The knife has a locking security feature that is blended into the cutting-edge design to ensure safety.
By adding a subtle clip into the handle design, CRKT made the K.I.S.S knife able to attach to any article of clothing or be simply added to a keychain.
