The CRKT S.P.I.T. 2.29-inch fixed blade knife in orange (CRKT part no. 2399) stands for Small Pocket Inverted Tanto, a shorter cousin of CRKT’s popular S.P.E.W. built by designer Alan Folts of Melbourne, Florida. Columbia River Knife & Tool kept the S.P.E.W.’s large handle for extra leverage while trimming the blade for added portability. The needle-sharp inverted tanto tip excels at slicing, piercing, and fine detail work, and the high-carbon steel takes a satin-and-stonewash duotone finish that looks as sharp as it cuts. The bright orange G10 handle offers a sturdy grip and makes the knife easy to spot in a shop, gear bag, or tackle box.
