The **CRKT Snap Lock** has to be one of the most innovative pocket knives on the market. This pocket knife was designed by Ed van Hoy and originally introduced in 2005. It immediately won the prize for the most innovative pocket knife. Since then there have been few knives that use an even more special mechanism. In the meantime, the Snap Lock disappeared from the CRKT range for a short period of time. Fortunately, the Snap Lock is back!



 The special thing about the SnapLock is that you pull the blade sideways out of its handle. This sometimes results in somewhat surprised faces when you pull the Snap Lock from your pocket. 'How does it open?' is a frequently asked question. It is actually very simple when you understand how it operates. At the same time, you also see the ingenuity. When closed, push down the latch that protrudes from the handle. This actually pushes the entire frame apart. The inside has a cut-out with enough room for the blade. As such the lock works the same when closed and opened. It might take some practice but after a while you can easily open this knife with one hand. Due to the thickness of the frame, you are well protected against the sharp edge.



The CRKT Snap Lock is a beautiful addition to any pocket knife collection. A unique piece of mechanism that is also perfectly usable.



The CRKT Snap Lock comes with a paracord necklace with a quick release.

The most unusual knife I have owned. Beautifully engineered and keeps its edge well. Faultless.

Sehr schönes Design und interessanter Klappmechanismus. 
Wirkt jedoch nicht so wertig wie auf den Bildern, wenn man es in der Hand hält.
Insbesondere der Teil der Klinge mit der Grobverzahlnung.
Insgesamt auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert aufgrund des guten Preis-Leistungsverhältnisses.

Weer een juweeltje van Cricket! Wat een beauty van Van Hoy!
2 minuten oefenen en je opent en sluit hem met gemak eenhandig. Ik blijf er mee spelen! Voor mensen die van vreemde maar toch functionele mesontwerpen houden is dit een absolute must. Echt een "speledingetje". En goede kwaliteit.

Geweldig product mooi afgewerkte materialen, zeer zeker z’n geld waard.

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).
