The CRKT Tuna Folding Knife SMKW Custom Tuna Fish Edition is a bold blend of everyday functionality and eye-catching custom style. Built on Lucas Burnley's popular Tuna platform, this exclusive version pairs dependable performance with a striking anodized titanium handle that celebrates one of the ocean's most powerful game fish. Whether you're an everyday carry enthusiast, a collector of unique SMKW exclusives, or simply appreciate quality craftsmanship with a touch of personality, this knife delivers reliable cutting performance wrapped in an unforgettable design.
At the heart of the Tuna is a 3.25-inch drop point blade crafted from 8Cr14MoV stainless steel. Known for its excellent balance of toughness, corrosion resistance, and ease of maintenance, 8Cr14MoV is a proven steel for everyday carry knives. It takes a sharp edge with ease and stands up well to daily cutting tasks, making it an excellent choice for work, outdoor adventures, or general utility use. The versatile drop point profile provides a strong tip for detailed work while offering a generous cutting edge for smooth slicing and controlled cuts.
The blade is finished with a rugged dark stonewash treatment that gives it a worn-in appearance while helping disguise scratches and signs of regular use. The low-glare finish complements the knife's hardworking design and adds to its rugged character, making it as practical as it is attractive.
Quick, one-handed deployment is made possible by the thumb stud, allowing the blade to open smoothly and confidently whenever it's needed. Once deployed, the sturdy framelock securely locks the blade into position, providing dependable strength and stability during demanding cutting tasks. The framelock design also contributes to the knife's slim profile and solid feel in hand.
What truly sets this SMKW Custom edition apart is its stunning teal anodized titanium handle. Lightweight, exceptionally durable, and corrosion resistant, titanium is a premium handle material that offers outstanding strength without unnecessary weight. The vibrant teal anodized finish immediately catches the eye, while the oversized tuna fish graphic proudly displayed across the handle gives the knife its unmistakable personality. The detailed artwork creates a unique blend of rugged utility and artistic flair, making this an excellent addition to any collection while remaining fully capable as an everyday carry knife.
Ergonomically contoured for comfort, the handle fills the hand naturally and provides a secure grip during extended use. A tip-up pocket clip allows for convenient everyday carry, keeping the knife secure and readily accessible throughout the day. Measuring 4.37 inches closed, the Tuna strikes an ideal balance between portability and cutting capability, making it easy to carry without compromising performance.
Combining proven CRKT engineering with an exclusive SMKW custom finish, the Tuna Folding Knife stands out as both a dependable tool and a collectible conversation piece. From its rugged dark stonewashed blade to its premium anodized titanium handle, every detail reflects thoughtful design and everyday practicality.
