CRKT - E-Lock Starlight - Serrated. Imagine the knife of the future: lightweight build, premium materials, a soft gray finish, CNC-machined surfaces, a high-tech lock, smooth one-hand action. Welcome to the future, because our Elishewitz Starlight™ is a functional precision tool for today that would look at home in any starship. Your first impression is, “How can a full-size folder be so light?” It has a 3.25” (8.3 cm) blade, yet weighs only 2.7 oz. (77 g). Your second question is, “How can such a minimal frame fit the hand so perfectly?” The stunning visual effect of the CNC-machined starburst is misleading, because this is not eye candy, but a knife that is ready to get to work. The credit goes to custom knifemaker Allen Elishewitz, who designed the E-lock Starlight as another spectacular way to use his breakthrough E-lock. A stainless steel rocker bar with a powerful spring holds the blade rigidly in place, with steel-on-steel lockup, until you make the decision to press it and fold the blade. It is positive, secure, and remarkably simple. One-hand opening and closing are fast and easy, and can be accomplished with either hand, thanks to dual checked thumb studs. The blade pivot screw is a custom-machined four-point Elishewitz design, and Teflon® bushings at the blade pivot make the action super slick. The E-lock allows a very flat and rigid open build. The CNC-machined 6061 T6 aluminum handles in a natural bead-blast finish are mated to a brushed aluminum back spacer at the spine, and assembled with Torx® screws. The Starlight modified clip point blade is premium AUS 8 stainless steel in a non-reflective ceramic bead-blast finish. It is available with Razor-Sharp or Combination Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point™ Serrated edges. Grip is excellent, especially for an all-metal knife, thanks to the deep finger choils, a blade guard extension, a thumb choil on the spine, and a final pinky choil near the butt. The Starlight carries an Elishewitz custom stainless steel clothing/gear clip of gray Teflon®-plated stainless steel, with his trademark six drilled holes. The very high mounting of the clip allows for unobtrusive low in-pocket carry. 7353: Combined Razor-Sharp & Triple-Point™ Serrated Cutting EdgeBlade: Length: 3.25” (8.3 cm)Thickness: 0.12” (0.30 cm)Steel: AUS 8, 56-58 HRCClosed: Handle length: 3.375” (8.6 cm)Open: Overall length: 7.5” (19.1 cm)Weight: 2.7 oz.
