X- CRKT Premonition Plain Edge 1162

How does Gerry McGinnis keep his grades up as a student at North Carolina State University and still keep coming up with new and interesting knife designs? We don't know, but we just couldn't resist putting his new Premonition^™ line into production.

Premonition^™ 1162. This satin-finished every day carry (E.D.C.) features a precisely angled flipper for extra-fast one-hand blade opening. Because of the flipper, the knife does not need either thumb studs or nail nicks for opening.

The frame is a lightweight open build of hand-contoured, layered blue/black G10, with a stainless steel strip lock inlaid into a machined relief in one handle frame. The frame is curvilinear to fit the hand, and is amply skeletonized with nine lightening holes on the other frame. The black Zytel^® back spacer is forward on the handles, allowing maximum blade length for this length of handle.

The 3.25" drop point blade is premium 8Cr14MoV stainless steel with a high hollow grind, satin finished with a Razor-Sharp cutting edge.

The stainless steel strip liner and removable pocket/gear clip are blue titanium nitride coated to match the blue G10 layer in the handles.
