CRKT Provoke 4040BG Karambit Folding Knife

CRKT Provoke: Innovation Meets Tradition

The Provoke represents a genuine advancement in karambit design. CRKT's proprietary Kinematic technology allows this knife to remain compact and unobtrusive during carry, then deploy instantly when needed.

How It Works

Operation is intuitive and reliable:

• Deployment: Nudge the upper crossbar with your thumb while gripping the handle firmly. The blade lunges into position and locks securely.
• Closure: A discreet lever at the base of the finger loop retracts the blade back into its closed position.
• Pocket Clip: Engineered to sit nearly flush with the handle, activated by light thumb pressure—a first-of-its-kind design.

Build Quality

Blade: D2 steel with durable Cerakote finish provides excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance.

Handle: Aircraft-grade 6061 aluminum in bright green Cerakote coating. This material withstands hard use while remaining lightweight and comfortable in hand.

The Karambit Advantage

The karambit's curved blade and finger ring design offer unique control and versatility for self-defense, utility cutting, and tactical applications. The Provoke's innovative deployment system makes this traditional design accessible to modern users who demand reliability and speed.

Whether you're a seasoned knife enthusiast or exploring karambit designs for the first time, the Provoke delivers genuine innovation backed by proven materials and engineering.
