CRKT Squid XM Assisted Opening (2495B) – 2.95″ D2 Blackwashed Plain Blade Brown G-10 and Stainless Steel Handle CR2495B

Product Description

The CRKT Squid™ XM is a distinguished creation, meticulously conceptualized by Lucas Burnley as the robust “Extra Medium” evolution of the widely admired original Squid. Mirroring the inherent quality of its predecessor while showcasing broader functionality, the Squid XM is a performance-focused folder built to efficiently dismantle packaging and tackle heavy-duty daily tasks with considerable ease and precision.

The Squid XM features a 2.95″ drop point blade crafted from premium D2 tool steel, ensuring superior edge retention and exemplary durability. The rugged blackwashed finish resists corrosion and hides wear from hard use. Deployment is lightning-fast and fluid thanks to the combination of Ken Onion’s Assisted Opening technology and the IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system. The ergonomics are defined by a hybrid handle—featuring a high-traction brown G-10 front scale for a secure grip and a blackwashed stainless steel frame-lock back for rock-solid structural integrity. With integrated friction grooves on the blade spine for sophisticated slicing control, this knife is as engaging to use as it is practical to carry.
