Kit Carson designed the M21 series. His knives have been a long-time staple of military forces worldwide Made of high carbon stainless steel blades this deep-bellied spear point-style is swedged and recurved. It's like having a bulldozer with laser-like cutting precision. A non-reflective titanium nitride finish offers maximum corrosion resistance. The M21-14G features our automated liner safety. To deploy quickly, press your finger on the Carson Flipper, the blade flies open, and this innovative safety system automatically has your back.
