OVERVIEW
*PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS ASSISTED OPENING AND NEEDS PERMITS IN SOME STATES
When CRKT® decided to reimagine the late Kit Carson’s popular M16® design, it was either go big or go home. And so, the M16®-03DB was born. Combining three revolutionary innovations, Deadbolt®, Assisted Opening, and IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system, this redesign doesn’t hold back in performance or functionality.
The Deadbolt® locking system uses steel bolts that interlock with the blade when it’s deployed to yield incredible strength. A prominent button sits at the pivot point for simple, intuitive disengagement without fingers crossing the path of the blade.
The IKBS™ system incorporates a ball bearing that the blade pivots around, providing ultra-smooth opening. This, coupled with assisted opening, allows the blade to open at an impressive speed for simple, powerful, one-handed opening.
Just like the beloved classic, this contemporary variation gets the job done right—only now, it excels in three more ways.
- Strong And Simple: Deadbolt® lock provides incredible strength and it's easy to use
- Assisted Opening: Flipper deploys the blade fast
- Smooth Opening: IKBS™ ball bearing pivot deploys the blade smooth
- Superior Performance: D2 blade steel for excellent edge retention
- Strong and Lightweight: aluminum handle combines strength with minimal weight
- Low Profile: pocket clip provides secure carry
