Ken Onion has been making elegant and functional folding knives for about 25 years. The new Gusset K330KKS from CRKT is yet another highly functional design from Ken that incorporates the IKBS bearing pivot system and utilizes a unique gusseted handle design. The blade is smooth and fast to deploy, the frame lock design provides solid and secure use of the knife, and the gusseted handle design increases traction and reduces weight without sacrificing strength. There is beauty in simplicity and the CRKT Gusset is as beautiful as it is functional.
Brand new direct from CRKT Knives.
The Blade: The blade of the Gusset is a simple and utilitarian, hollow ground drop point that provides excellent cutting performance. The addition of Triple Point Serrations gives this model the advantage when cutting rope and other fibrous materials. The Black Oxide finish is long wearing and enhances corrosion resistance. Thanks to the IKBS bearing pivot system the blade deploys fast and smooth via the index flipper tab. The Gusset is easy to carry and ready for all your every day cutting needs.
The Handle: The design was influenced by metal dune buggy frames that have gussets that help to reduce weight and increase the structural strength. The stainless steel handles have been built in much the same way with cutouts that reduce weight and increase traction in the hand. The Gussets handles have a Black Oxide finish that helps to protect against corrosion and gives the K330KKS a more tactical feel. A black aluminum back spacer has jimping for added traction and doubles as a large lanyard hole.
Included is a single position stainless steel, deep carry pocket clip set up for tip down, right hand carry.
