CRKT Counterpart™ Crossbar Lock

The Counterpart™: where utility meets style.

When legendary knifemaker Ken Onion puts pen to paper, the result is always purpose-built. The Counterpart™ is no exception—blending practical utility with smooth, modern style.

The Counterpart™ features a D2 steel tanto blade with a durable oxide finish—offering excellent edge retention and piercing strength. The IKBS™ ball bearing pivot ensures smooth deployment, activated by the low-profile thumb disc for quick, intuitive access.

An ambidextrous Crossbar Lock offers rock-solid security whether you’re left- or right-handed, while the black glass-reinforced nylon handle balances toughness with featherweight carry comfort. The adjustable tip-up pocket clip keeps it riding discreetly until called to action.

This is not just a folding knife—it’s your steadfast Counterpart™ when the job demands precision, confidence, and readiness.
