CRKT Snap Lock Folder, Iridescent Knife, Model 5102P

Looking toward the future—with a nod to the past.

Ed VanHoy’s Snap Lock™ garnered global attention at the 2004 Blade Show, where it was crowned the Most Innovative Knife. Two decades in, the unique cam action and 180° swing of the blade still makes the Snap Lock™ as popular as ever. This version features an iridescent titanium nitride coating along with a rainbow fob and bead, adding a vibrant pop of color to the vintage-inspired folding knife. To open, simply press the front cam lever mechanism down with your thumb and rotate the blade outward until it fully extends and securely clicks into place. To close the knife, press down on the cam lever to disengage then swing the blade back into the closed position. Once the blade is in the closed position, no part of the edge is exposed and the knife is secure to carry.

• Ultimate Durability: Iridescent titanium nitride coated stainless steel handle withstands hard use
