Product Description:

Those with a military background know what it means to earn the rank of Sergeant Major. After Kit Carson retired from the U.S. Army at that rank, he became a custom knifemaker, and began making his custom M16s® for his former colleagues.

His M16M models are identical in construction to the popular CRKT aluminum M16, offering the same sure-grip contoured handles of 6061 T6 aluminum, hard anodized in Olive Drab. The stainless steel locking liners with friction grooves are also black Teflon® plated.
The blades are imprinted with Gary Paul Johnston’s 1* (one-ass-to-risk) reminder logo. All three models feature AUS 8 stainless steel blades with Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point™ Serrated edges, chosen for edge retention and durability. Black titanium nitride coating gives superior corrosion resistance. All models feature the Carson Flipper extension to the blade, which aids opening and acts as an additional blade guard.
