The tactical karambit CRKT Provoke First Responder is a robust EDC knife with a kinematic opening mechanism, a D2 tool steel blade, and a full black titanium finish. It offers fast one-handed deployment, secure locking, and a durable 6061-T6 aluminum handle. Includes a Boltaron sheath for safe carry.
The CRKT Provoke First Responder is a modern take on the classic karambit, designed by Joe Caswell for tactical use and everyday carry. Thanks to the kinematic mechanism, the blade swings forward smoothly with thumb pressure and remains securely locked. The all-black titanium-finished design minimizes glare and increases durability.
The plain edge made of D2 tool steel provides excellent edge retention and reliable cutting performance. The ergonomic 6061‑T6 aluminum handle is lightweight and rigid; the finger ring supports a secure grip, and the controls are intuitively positioned for quick use even with gloves. The included Boltaron sheath enables safe and practical carry.
