CRKT Knives Reviews

I got my CRKT knife last week, right around the time I was cleaning up a bunch of random boxes in the garage, and the blade was way sharper than I expected straight out of the box. It went through cardboard, some rope, and a few annoying plastic packages without any trouble at all. I haven’t even felt the need to touch up the edge yet, which is nice because I was already in the middle of doing too many little weekend chores. Seems like they actually put some care into sharpening it before shipping it out. Really happy with it so far.

I had a minor problem with my CRKT Knives knife and expected the warranty process to be a headache. It ended up being really simple. I sent over the details and a few photos, and they replied quicker than I thought they would. They got it handled without a bunch of back-and-forth or hoops to jump through. Based on my experience, they really do stand behind their products, which I definitely appreciate

CRKT Knives has a really solid selection of knives and tools!!! I was mostly just looking for a pocket knife, and honestly... there were way more options than I expected?? Which is great, but it also meant I spent a good while comparing everything.

I gave it 4 stars because the choices are definitely good, but the filtering could be a little easier!!! Still, I found what I needed in the end, so no real complaints

When I first took the CRKT knife out of the box, my immediate reaction was that it looked decent, but not quite as nice as I expected for the price. It works fine and gets the job done, so I can’t really complain too much. I just thought the finish and overall feel would be a little better. Not a bad knife, just more of an okay purchase for me.

I picked up a CRKT knife last year, when I was in one of those moods where I just wanted a reliable tool and didn’t feel like overthinking it. Since then, it’s been with me on camping trips, in the yard, and for a bunch of random garage projects, and it still feels really solid.

I’ve had to sharpen the edge a few times, but that’s normal with how much I use it. The handle still feels good, the lock hasn’t gotten sketchy, and nothing feels loose or bent. I’m happy with how tough it’s turned out to be.

I was going to say it feels sturdy, actually, it feels seriously tough. The build just gives off that solid, made-to-last kind of vibe

I wanted to like this, and to be fair the product itself seems decent, but the handle just doesn’t feel right in my hand. The grip feels awkward, and after using it for a few minutes my hand started to hurt. It might work fine for someone with different hands or preferences, but comfort-wise it wasn’t a good fit for me.

I’ve always liked crkt gear, so I was kind of surprised by how frustrating the website felt. The filters didn’t seem to work quite right, pages were slow here and there, and checkout felt a little clunky. Maybe it was just me, but I’m sure I had to click around way more than I should’ve.

I had a question about an order I placed on CRKT Knives, so I reached out to customer service. They got back to me quickly, around the next day, and the answer was straightforward, which made the whole thing easy.

I’m giving 4 stars because I did have to follow up once. After I checked in again, they handled it and everything got sorted out, so overall it was a good experience.

I really like how the knife looks and feels in the hand, but yeah, the edge just didn’t hold up for me. I used it on a few boxes and little everyday tasks, and it already needed sharpening quickly. I expected a bit more from CRKT. It’s not a bad knife or anything, just not one I’d count on for daily use.

I’ve generally had a good impression of CRKT knives because the designs are useful and they look sharp. This one came sharp out of the box and does the job fine, so I can’t really complain about how it works. The downside is the handle feels a little cheaper than I expected, and because the finish seems kind of soft, it started scratching sooner than I thought it would. Overall, it’s not a bad knife, but it doesn’t feel amazing for the price. I’d probably buy another one, but only if I found it on sale.

I was so disappointed when my order arrived because it was completely the wrong item. I opened the package all excited and then just sat there staring at it like, are you kidding me? Definitely not what I ordered...

I’m not totally sure if it’s just how I’m carrying it, but the pocket clip seems to dig in a bit too much for me. It gets uncomfortable after a while, so I probably wouldn’t want to have it on me all day...

The knife does what it’s supposed to do, so I can’t really complain about the function. But in person, the design looks way bulkier and busier than I expected. Like, who in the design department decided it needed to look this overbuilt? Feels like they were trying to distract us from how awkward it actually looks. It works, but visually, it’s just not for me

I’ve been using this lock every day and so far it’s been solid. No slipping or weird catches. I’m pretty much at the point where if it clicks and the door doesn’t budge, my brain just checks it off as reliable.

Tried to exchange a knife and ended up dealing with slow replies and confusing instructions. Still waiting on the refund, which is frustrating.

I got my CRKT Knives a few days ago, it opens really smooth every time. I was expecting it to be decent, but the deployment feels quick and solid with no sticking or weird side-to-side play. I’m assuming that’s just how these tend to be built, because it already feels natural in hand and easy to use.

I was trying to order a few knives, but almost everything I wanted was either sold out or listed as unavailable. I signed up for stock alerts and still haven’t heard anything. What really annoyed me was how unclear the communication was, the site makes it seem like items are available until you actually try to buy them. Frustrating overall...

I ordered from crkt.com the shipping was faster than I figured it would be. I got the tracking email the next day, which is always nice because, common sense, you just want to know the order actually went through and is on its way.

The package showed up in about 4 days, and everything arrived in good shape. No damage, no missing items, no confusing delivery issues or anything like that.

The only reason I’d give it 4 stars instead of 5 is that the tracking didn’t really update much at first, so I wasn’t totally sure where it was for a bit. Not a huge deal, but worth mentioning. Overall though, it was a good experience and I’d order again.
