Designed by Kit Carson in Vine Grove, Kentucky
A classic comeback.
The popular M16 design by the late Kit Carson makes a comeback with the stainless steel series. Packing even more power and functionality than before, the three versions offer a range of blade size and construction—so you can choose which one serves you best.
Technical Description
Keeping all the fan-favorite features from Kit’s line of tactical folders, then reimagined as an everyday carry, the M16®-03SS adds even more strength and performance to the mix. Built with a spear point , high-quality Sandvik 12C27™ blade for excellent edge retention, it’s topped with a bead blast finish to reduce any unwanted glare or reflection.
