CRKT Bamboozled, 3.34″ D2 Assisted Blade, G10/Steel Handle – 5720

An inspired design from the son of a legend. For his first CRKT knife, Ken Onion Jr. designed a refined folder that blurs the lines between classic and modern. An everyday carry with a stately appearance, the Bamboozled is the fine watch of the knife world, with an understated elegance that will impress those who know where to look.

The Bamboozled pairs its timeless looks with utilitarian materials, including D2 blade steel for superb edge retention and a grippy G10 handle. It uses both Assisted Opening — his Father’s Speedsafe technology — and IKBS bearings for fast and smooth action. When open, a liner lock secures the blade and can be easily released with the push of a finger, allowing the knife to be fully operated with one hand.

All of this leads to a quality folder that will appeal to the vintage knife collector as much as it does the aspiring aficionado. In the Bamboozled, Ken Jr. has a legend of his own in the making.
