The CRKT K.I.S.S. stands for “Keep It Super Simple,” and offers a minimalist, yet functional design by bladesmith Ed Halligan. The 2.25" tanto-inspired blade is chisel ground, meaning all the edges and bevels are ground only on one side. When you close the blade into the minimal handle, even if it’s exposed, there are no sharp edges to catch with your hands or fingers as you reach for the knife. You deploy the blade via thumbstud, and it’s kept in place by an integral framelock, allowing for simple one-handed operation and easy maintenance.

The pocket clip and lanyard hole give you multiple options for carry: clipped onto your pocket or pack, doubling as a money clip, or hung from your keychain via split ring or lanyard. The entire knife is made from bead-blasted 3Cr13 stainless steel, giving it a uniform finish that doesn’t catch light and gives the K.I.S.S. a low profile. If you’re looking for a lightweight, minimalist knife that’s easy to carry around, the CRKT K.I.S.S. should be at the top of your list. Choose from a plain edge or one with CRKT’s Triple Point Serrations at the link below.
