Just picked up a CRKT M21-02 in aus-8.


I'm gonna be doing the normal review, but I thought I would ask if there was anything you guys wanted to see. Any questions?

Crkt M21-02
3" aus-8 stainless
4 1/4" 6061 T6 Aluminum handle
Just over 7" over all
Hollow ground, shaving from the factory, great grinds.

I've heard good things about those knives from the people I know who carry them. Cool

So, here are the guys that came on the trip to the back yard.


Here is the 1/3" that I sawed in half with the saw on my blast. For some reason I prefer that saw to the saw on my Sak's.


I then batoned that piece with the m21, WITH lock engaged and it did fine.(you can see my baton to the left)


Next I split those pieces into smaller pieces and made some shavings. I am in love with this knife, it was so comfy in the hand, felt like an extension. It
had no problem making shavings, it just felt perfect while working with it.


Then got some dryer lint out and made the strike with the spine of the M21, the spine is nice and agnled so it had no problem.


And after it went for a few.



So in the end I am very, very impressed with this knife. I got a new EDC and a new field knife from this one. The Aus-8 was still shaving afterwards, had no
blade play what so ever. Its really a tuff little knife. The only complaint I have is that I can't consecutivly flip it open with the flipper. But, I lossen
the pin a bit and I can get most every time(9 out of 10)
BTW this is a taiwan made knife, but obviously as we all know its what level of quailty control is on the knife, and in this case there was alot. Striaght

lines, no finish problems.

Certainly a keeper.
