CRKT Squid Assisted 2.37 Inch Plain Black Stonewash Drop Point

The CRKT Squid Assisted Black Stonewash is a bold upgrade to an already iconic design. Compact, rugged, and built for speed, this everyday carry folding knife offers fast deployment, reliable performance, and a sleek, tactical look. Designed with practical use in mind, it’s small enough to stay out of the way but tough enough to handle whatever comes your way. Available from the world’s largest knife store, Smoky Mountain Knife Works, the Squid Assisted Black Stonewash is a pocket-sized powerhouse ready to work when you are.

The heart of the Squid Assisted is its 2.37” drop point blade, crafted from 8Cr14MoV stainless steel. Known for its corrosion resistance, edge retention, and easy sharpening, this steel delivers consistent performance for everyday tasks. The drop point shape offers versatility, giving you a strong tip for piercing and a long edge for slicing. Coated with a black stonewash finish, the blade has a rugged, worn-in look that hides scratches and adds extra corrosion protection.

Speed and efficiency define the Squid Assisted’s action. With its spring-assisted opening, the blade deploys in a flash. A simple push on the flipper tab or the ambidextrous thumb studs gets the blade moving, and the IKBS ball bearing pivot ensures a smooth, fluid motion every time. No lag, no resistance — just clean, instant deployment. Once open, the framelock engages to hold the blade securely in place, so you can cut, slice, and carve with confidence.

The handle is where form meets function. Made from stainless steel with a matching black stonewash finish, it offers both strength and style. The steel construction ensures durability, while the stonewash finish provides a weathered, battle-ready look. The 3.57” closed length keeps it compact and pocket-friendly, while the subtle texturing of the finish gives you extra grip. It’s solid, sturdy, and perfectly sized for discreet carry.

With a tip-up pocket clip and lanyard hole, the Squid Assisted offers multiple carry options. Whether you prefer to keep it clipped to your pocket or secured on a lanyard, this knife stays right where you need it. The slim design ensures a comfortable, low-profile carry that won’t take up unnecessary space in your pocket. Weighing just 3.7 ounces, it’s lightweight enough to forget it’s there — until you need it.

Measuring 5.94” overall when open, the Squid Assisted is compact but capable. The .12” blade thickness provides just the right amount of strength for everyday tasks without adding unnecessary bulk. It’s designed to be small but mighty, giving you the confidence to take on everything from daily chores to unexpected challenges.

The CRKT Squid Assisted Black Stonewash is the ultimate blend of speed, strength, and style. Its fast-action deployment, durable materials, and compact design make it a top choice for anyone who values performance in a small package. Whether you’re a collector, outdoor enthusiast, or just need a dependable everyday carry, this knife delivers. Pick up your CRKT Squid Assisted Black Stonewash from the world’s largest knife store, Smoky Mountain Knife Works, and experience the perfect combination of tactical toughness and pocket-friendly convenience.
