Crkt M16-10XD Folder, 8Cr14MoV

Product Description

Crkt M16-10XD is a tanto-style folding knife with a 3.05″ blade made from 8Cr14MoV steel. The blade is 0.1″ thick and carries a Titanium Nitride finish. Overall length is 7.06″, and the knife closes down to 4.01″.

The edge is partially serrated. Veff serrations sit alongside a plain section, so one blade can handle both slicing and sawing cuts. A thumb stud opens it. The IKBS ball bearing pivot is there to keep the blade swinging out smoothly. Once open, the crossbar lock holds it in place. Hardness is listed at 58-60.

Build and carry

The handle is stainless steel in a tan color. The whole knife weighs 2.1 oz, which keeps it easy to carry all day. It is part of the M16-10 series and is made in China.

This knife fits someone who wants a compact tanto folder for daily tasks: opening packages, cutting cord, trimming straps and general camp or shop work. The tanto shape has a strong point, and the serrations help on rope and webbing.

Pair it with a small sharpening stone to keep the plain edge keen. A pocket organizer, a compact flashlight or a multi-tool rounds out a carry kit. Work gloves and a tool bag make sense for jobsite use.
