Columbia River 1080 Kommer Full Throttle Assisted Open Frame Lock Pocket Knife

CRKT 1080 Kommer Full Throttle Assisted Open Frame Lock Pocket Knife

Look through the CRKT catalog, and you will see page after page of successful hunting and fishing knife designs by Knifemakers’ Guild member and Alaskan guide Russ Kommer, whose custom knife shop is now in Fargo, North Dakota. But Russ blew away the competition with his prototype for the Full Throttle™, which is definitely a rock-solid personal frame-lock folder that is made even slicker by the addition of the CRKT patented* OutBurst™ assisted opening mechanism. It is a classy everyday carry with a flat profile that fills the hand and has perfect balance.

Designed with a hefty open build. The frames are 420J2 stainless steel in a lightly textured 25-micron-thick blue/black polyurethane hard enamel finish. Often used for surveillance equipment, tripods and computer parts, this thin, hard coating gives superior protection from corrosion, abrasion, and impact. A pronounced finger choil enhances grip.

Gold-plated fasteners, blade stop pin, and dual checkered thumb studs add a distinctive custom touch. The back spacer is gold-anodized 6061 T6 aluminum, complete with CNC-machined file work.

The premium AUS 8 stainless steel blade in a high satin finish features a high-hollow grind. Both Razor-Sharp and our exclusive Combination Razor-Sharp and Veff™ Serrated edges are available. This model 1080 is the standard edge blade with bronze and Teflon® bearings at the adjustable blade pivot for smooth, fast action.

A high-mounted custom removable mirror-finish stainless steel clothing/gear clip gives this rugged all-metal work knife great versatility for carry in pockets or on belts and gear.

The Kommer Full Throttle 1080 has a retail price of $79.95 it is an excellent value at that cost.  Plus it is backed with the CRKT lifetime limited warranty. Don't miss owning this for our super discount price of $49.95.  It’s a knife designed to perform, whether at idle, cruising speed, or Full Throttle.
