CRTT Sting ™ Black CR-2020

CRKT comes with a production version of the AG Russell Sting. When AG designed the first Sting in 1975, he intended it to be a knife for hunting and personal defense. Its very popular full-tang version in 1977 took this idea a step further. Today's CRKT Sting is seen as a versatile one-piece knife that is almost indestructible.

The Sting is so tough and durable thanks to heat forging. It starts its life as a regular semi-finished product made of carbon steel 1050, similar to the alloy used in traditional samurai swords, which is first forged by heat and then meticulously ground into the final shape. After heat treatment grinding, the Sting is hardened and tempered to achieve optimal hardness with excellent strength.

The integrated handle is shaped to fit well in both bare hands and gloved hands. There is a large lanyard hole at the end of the handle.

The knife comes with a sheath made of durable Zytel material and cordura straps.
