CRKT K.I.S.S. EDC Folding Pocket Knife: Compact Everyday Carry, Dual Grind Tanto, Serrated Frame Lock, Skeletonized Handle, Pocket Money Clip 5510

Super simple. Tanto tip. Both straight and serrated edges. Lightweight but sturdy. I had one back in college and lost it, but was thrilled to see it available recently so I bought it again. Highly recommended.

Currently own 3 CRKT knives, this one is the most practical knife and useful, on a daily basis than the others.. It fits in your pocket easily and can be used as a money clip(big plus here). The blade comes in handy more than the Carson M16 I have(in my edc, not on me).Commonly used to cut packaging tape or other nuisances. Since I use it as a moneyclip, there is often money in the clip when unfolding the blade. No issues with money getting cut when folding the blade back in, clearances are slim but not problem! It comes super sharp out of the box and does not become an issue inside your pant pocket. It is sharpened on one side to make the folded knife flush with the handle/frame and not cut up your pockets or legs. The clip is fairly large(consumes 3/4 of a folded dollar bill) but also tight(difficult when carrying all those one dollar bills for the stripper). Compared to the CRKT P.E.C.K., it is ~2.5x larger. I originally bought the P.E.C.K. but gave it to my friend since purchasing the K.I.S.S. Form factor is sleek enough to be used in a formal suit situation. As with all CRKT items that I have experienced, quality is top notch and a thing of beauty. The K.I.S.S. makes a great gift idea.

I've had a CRKT KISS pocket knife for over a decade; I only bought this one because I lost my last one! The design is incredible- it fits anywhere you put it because it's so delightfully slim. It's SHARP, too; and holds an edge for ages.This design was meant for single hand operation (right hand only); you can pull it out of a pocket, open and close it with only your right hand, which makes it ideal for quick things like opening boxes and such. Once you get used to it, it's up, out used and away with a simple hand movement.Will it cut you? Any blade can cut you if you use it improperly. The KISS comes with a handy illustrated instruction manual that lists how you should handle and store the knife. Follow the guide, use common sense, and no harm will come to you; I promise. :)

The KISS is an interesting little knife.The concept is interesting, the finish is okay for the low price, it opens easily and locks well, however it doesn't cut well due to it's design.The shape of the blade forces the material you're attempting to cut up the length of the blade to it's tip making it quite difficult.

KISS stands for Keep it Simple Stupid. But there is nothing "simple"-looking about this beautiful knife. It is a work of art unlike anything I have ever seen. Traditional folding knives fold into a handle, but the KISS folds on the outside of the handle. Although the blade is exposed, it is sharpened and shaped in such a way to lie flat against the handle. So it's perfectly safe to clip to your pocket. As for use, it should provide a lifetime of light-duty use. Perfect for opening packages, cutting plastic ties, or most anything else you encounter in your daily modern civilized existence. This thing is solid and comes out of the box sharp! And it opens like butter. I received my first KISS knife as a gift, but lost it after a couple of years. I missed it so much that I bought myself another one from Amazon. I will NOT lose this one. Highly recommended knife for those who like their blades to be exceptional and out of the ordinary.

The quality just isn't the same any more.I had three before. Knife itself is lighter, yet doesn't feel more durable, opens in my pocket. Last one I bought I returned. Kept this one. Better quality but still not up to the CRKT standards of old.

This is an amazing knife. Very simple, Sharp. This is my Third in 10 years. ( I keep loosing them) no fault of the design.Well made and practical. I carry/use it daily in my job and it has yet to fail me. never seem to need resharpening.Most Highly Recommended.Note: The little version. Delilahs Peck is good but to small. CRKT did make a bigger version. I had one 10 years ago, lost is in a move. Cant find another one any ware. it is like the web has erased it from history. :(

This is part of my EDC and has been for years. I use it as a money clip, and keep one in my hip bag for when I can't carry on-body. Light, thin, ridiculously sharp, easy to deploy. Makes a great money clip and doesn't attract any attention. Blade is long enough for most purposes.
