CRKT Trask Folding Knife D2 Blade GRN Handle, Eric Ochs Design

TRASK™
Designed by Eric Ochs in Sherwood, Oregon
 
Like a river: equal parts flow, power, and adventure. Designed around the Deadbolt® innovation, the Trask™ everyday carry folding knife is inspired by a favorite childhood river. With clean lines, a substantial blade and an extremely strong locking mechanism, it’s designed for the ultimate outdoorsmen.

Designer Eric Ochs of Sherwood, Oregon grew up learning every eddy of the coastal Trask river. Now, he’s designed its namesake knife to be the one he wishes he had when he was searching for salmon and steelhead, tracking Roosevelt elk, and filling his boyhood with adventure. The Trask™ is designed around the Deadbolt® innovation, where steel bolts interlock with the strong D2 blade when it’s deployed to yield outrageous strength. The IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system ensures it opens quickly and smoothly, and a prominent button sits at the pivot point on the highly ergonomic glass-reinforced nylon handle for simple disengagement.

The EDC designed for the deep woods.
