Kit Carson, Knifemaker's Guild Member, and designer of the M16 Series, designs for function, not fad. Heft any M16 and you'll know what that means. For example, wide blade design for multiple and difficult tasks. Zytel contoured handles have steel liners. Stainless Steel locking liner with friction grooves, for positive locking with limited access for superior safety. AUS8 Stainless Steel blades, chosen for edge retention and durability, in non-reflective fine bead blast finish. Razor-Sharp or Combined TriplePoint (TM) Serrated edges for rugged cutting tasks that break down standard cutting edges.
The M1 6-02 and 12 are little bulldogs, packing a lot of power in a compact package. One hand opening and closing is velvet smooth, the result of Teflon bearings. The ambidextrous thumb stud with checkered surface provides instant access in any circumstance. Every model features a removable bead blast finish Stainless Steel pocket clip. All models of the M16 series are perfectly balanced, and every detail has a working purpose.
