I have owned a lot of knives in my life, but this is by far my favorite ever! I have worn it out, but it just keeps going! Great knife and good price....you can find it cheaper than the price above shows...especially if you are willing to buy the one without the LE logo.

I bought this knife before I deployed to Afghanistan in 2003, and let me tell you, it has been through hell and back. This is a great knife for military and LE functions.

I've had this knife for two years and I've put it through all sorts of action. The size is perfect for big work, it's easy to deploy, and it's ergonomically comfortable to use - not to mention, it's a good looking blade. When it's time to replace this one, I'll most likely get another.

I have been carrying this knife for 3 years and I have never had a knife I liked as much as this one. The blade keeps a great edge and the entire knife is light and streamlined for easy carry.

I've had my CRKT M-16 for at least 5 years now. This is an outstanding knife. It's durable and light too!

cut though anything;
very helpful
I do own this set and hey it has my approval here

Terrific value. I have my original CKRT from years back. These knives keep a blade through all kinds of abuse.

I have the smaller version of this knife that a carry everywhere in my B.O.B. I own a few "high end" knifes and I love this one the most. Super tough and the customer service at CRKT ROCKS!! I need new friction disks and a special allen key to tighten the pocket clip. They sent me one in about a week from their online Customer service section of the web page. SUPER COMPANY AND REALLY GREAT PRODUCTS. When you have 1* you buy the best.

Not a benchmade or Kershaw, not a knife I would sport.

GREAT KNIFE, BUT I LOST 1 OF THE LITTLE BELT CLIP SCREWS SO NOW IT JUST LAYS IN MY CONSOLE UNTIL I NEED IT. I CARRY A KERSHAW IN MY VEST AND A GERBER IN MY POCKET.

I've had one for 3 1/2 years used it in OIF1 to open MRE's at the rapid rate and cut 550 cord with no problem now I carry it in my back pocket, only thig I would like better would be if it had an auto open.

I've had this knife since I was in the middle east. Very durable.

Incredible knife for the price. The AUS8 steel and the tanto blade shape make it tough enough that if you have to abuse it, you can count on it holding up. Easier to sharpen than 440 and will take a razor edge. I carry mine 24-7-365. Only wish they made one with the clip on the other side so it was easier to deploy from weak side carry.

Love them have three or four of them. I just wish they were not so exspensive

crkt knives are excellent. I own several of them

Excellent tool and backup weapon. Well made .

This is an excellent accesory to your belt. I have one of the smaller ones and it fits nicely behing my double mag pouch, and is easy to retrieve. It is well worth the money, and has a good quote behind the logo.

most resillient, reliable, resourceful knife i have ever used

Love these knifes. Durable Strong and made to last. The only down fall is the clip, if you get it caught on your seat belt, it's apt to break off. The upscale abot that is it is covered under warranty, and CRKT are real good about fixing or replacing their products.

Great knives! Great price.

One can never have too many knives. Always nice to have a couple around...one for all purpose use that you don't mind beating up a bit, and others that cost a bit more but have a specific use in mind. Either way - I always carry a few in a bag in the trunk so you have something NOW when you need it rather that scratching your head and saying "I wish....."

Great CRKT knife no doubt in my mind it would save me if push came to shove. I am a CRKT fan for good!

CRKT is a decent company, and this is a decent knife. Though asa rockclimbing instructor and as a Scout Leader, I've seen them put through the ringer. The Pocket clips screws fall off and strip too easily. The edge won't stay on under heavy use as the manufactuer boasts. for a basic hiker's knife, it'd suffice. The only nice feature on the blade is the single handed operation. All in all it's ok. In my personal opinion, save up for a Benchmade.

These knives rock, I love them and can't tell ya how many times they proved worthy in Iraq!!!

Absolutely the best.

I have had this knife for years now and another Columbia River model. They are the best brand to keep there edge that I have owned. They are easy to open and are very dependable. I would likr to see a auto open model from them.

Had one of these and I lost it... Excellent knife going to get another..

I have a N16-10KZ. It has a 3 inch blade with a tanto point, cost under $25 at Wal-Mart. It is a great knife, thin and easy to carry. It is one of three I normally carry, and one I always carry off duty. I carry it tucked behind my belt just off from behind the buckel, no one every knows it is there.

I have the M-16. It is quite handy. When in uniform, I carry it all the time. The action is soo smooth, and it keeps a nice sharp edge....Go get you one!

good lookin knife

I bought this knife just because I thought the little 1* on the blade was cool! Little did I know that it was going to be the best knife that I have ever owned!

Love the knife. keeps a great edge...I lost a small screw on belt clip but I just keep tighting the one that is left... would buy another....

EXTREMELY LONG LASTING SHARPNESS......GREAT GRIP
