The compact pocket knife CRKT Homefront Compact by designer Ken Onion blends a retro look with modern functionality. It features Field Strip technology for quick tool-free disassembly, a robust blade made of CPM-S35VN with a black DLC finish, smooth opening via a flipper, and secure linerlock engagement. A durable aluminum handle with G10 accents, a pocket clip, and a lanyard hole make it a reliable knife for EDC and tactical use.
The CRKT Homefront Compact is a practical EDC knife inspired by classic folders from the World War II era, yet fully adapted to today’s demands. Thanks to Field Strip technology, you can easily take it apart and clean it anywhere—no screwdrivers or special tools needed. The blade made from premium CPM‑S35VN steel with a black DLC coating resists corrosion and wear and holds an edge for a long time.
Opening is quick and intuitive using the flipper, and reliable lockup is provided by the linerlock. The ergonomic handle made of black aluminum with orange G10 inlays ensures a secure grip even in tougher conditions. A practical pocket clip and lanyard hole make everyday carry easier.
