Tactically inspired everyday carry fixed blade with etched titanium nitride finish and cord-wrapped ray-skin handle. Japanese Kwaiken design meets modern materials for distinctive personal expression.
CRKT Burnley Obake: Artistry Meets Utility
Designed by Lucas Burnley, the Obake represents a thoughtful marriage of classical Japanese knife design and contemporary materials. This is a knife that makes a statement—both in aesthetics and performance.
Blade Design
The Obake features a full tang fixed blade finished in gray titanium nitride with an acid-etched pattern. Each blade receives a unique etch, ensuring your knife is truly one of a kind. This classical Kwaiken profile combines elegant lines with practical cutting geometry.
Handle & Grip
The handle employs a Katana-style nylon cord wrap over black faux ray-skin material. This combination provides:
- Exceptional grip security in wet or adverse conditions
- All-weather reliability for serious utility work
- Authentic aesthetic that honors traditional Japanese craftsmanship
Sheath & Carry
The glass-reinforced nylon sheath maintains consistent retention in humid environments. A paracord lanyard with skull bead accent attaches to your belt loop, keeping the sheath secure during deployment and active use.
The Philosophy
Burnley believes knives are personal expressions of independence. The Obake delivers on that promise—a tool that reflects your individual style while performing when it matters.
