Product Description:
Kit Carson, designer of the M16®
Series, became famous for his custom titanium frame M16s. True to Kit’s
custom design in all details, the production M16T models have been taken a
step further with the addition of the patented* Lake And Walker Knife
Safety (LAWKS®), which converts them into virtual fixed blades when
engaged.
The handles, which form the open-build frame, are CNC machined from 6AL4V
titanium. The result is a better strength-to-weight ratio than steel or
aluminum, and an almost indestructible frame. The titanium frame is
minimally ceramic bead-blast finished to enhance grip. The single 420J2
stainless steel locking liner with friction grooves provides positive
locking.
Blades are AUS 8 stainless steel, chosen for edge retention and
durability, in non-reflective fine bead blast finish, with Combined
Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point™ Serrated edges on the two larger sizes. This
steel can handle the most rugged cutting tasks and still be field
sharpened.
