SHOP CASE KNIVESThe CRKT Squid Rose Quartz is proof that compact knives can make a big statement. This stylish everyday carry folding knife blends sleek performance with a fresh, modern look that’s sure to turn heads. Built with quality materials and smooth functionality, the Squid Rose Quartz isn’t just pretty — it’s practical, powerful, and ready for action.
The 2.27-inch drop point blade is crafted from 14C28N stainless steel, a high-performance steel known for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. This blade is small but mighty, perfect for precision cuts and daily slicing tasks. The stonewash finish not only gives it a rugged, battle-worn look but also hides scratches and wear, so it stays looking fresh no matter how often you use it. With a .11-inch blade thickness, it offers the right balance of strength and sharpness, ready for everything from opening packages to outdoor tasks.
CRKT made sure deploying this blade is smooth and effortless. The ambidextrous thumb studs make it easy to open the blade with either hand, while the IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system ensures quick, silky-smooth deployment. With just a flick of your thumb, the blade is ready to go. The secure locking system keeps the blade firmly in place, so you can work with confidence and control.
But what truly sets the Squid Rose Quartz apart is its handle. Made from G-10 in a soft, rose quartz hue, it offers a refreshing pop of color in a sea of standard black and gray knives. G-10 isn’t just for looks — it’s lightweight, strong, and provides an excellent grip even in wet or slippery conditions. The 3.47-inch handle fits comfortably in your hand, providing a secure, ergonomic grip for total control. The subtle texture of G-10 adds a tactile feel that enhances grip without being too aggressive.
Portability is a key part of the Squid's design. Weighing in at just 2.9 ounces and measuring 3.47 inches closed, it’s small, lightweight, and easy to carry. The tip-up pocket clip allows for discreet, secure pocket carry, while the lanyard hole provides an additional attachment option. You can clip it to your pocket, attach it to your gear, or slip it into a bag — wherever you keep it, it’s always within reach.
When fully open, the Squid Rose Quartz measures 5.7 inches, making it small enough to be pocket-friendly but big enough to handle daily tasks with ease. The thoughtful design ensures a perfect balance between size, function, and portability. It’s the kind of knife that fits just right in your hand and your lifestyle.
