The **CRKT Prowess** is a cool pocket knife, designed by master knife maker Ken Onion. His purpose for this design was coming up with a great pocket knife for everyday use. It had to feel great in hand and be great to use. And that is exactly what the Prowess does.


The blade is made from AUS8 steel. A Japanese type of steel that is stainless and can easily be sharpened. You quickly open it with the flipper. When opened a liner lock will neatly keep the blade in place. The handle is made from FRN. A glass-reinforced plastic that is incredibly strong and weighs next to nothing.


You carry around the Prowess when you want to peel an apple. But also to open packages and boxes. This pocket knife is perfectly balanced. Exactly what Onion emphasizes with the screw enhanced with the yin-yang symbol.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

value_blade_length_edge

The length of the cutting edge is measured from the tip to the start of the edge. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Cutting edge length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_closed_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

Dimensions & weight

value_steel_hardness

The hardness in Rockwell C for a knife is always according to the manufacturer's specifications. When a manufacturer specifies a value of 56-58HRC, for instance, we always note the highest value, i.e. 58HRC.

Lock

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
