The CRKT Provoke EDC 2.47-inch folding knife in black oxide (CRKT part no. 4050K) takes the powerful Kinematic technology from the original Provoke karambit and applies it to a standard folding knife that’s flexible in more ways than one. Columbia River Knife & Tool built this version with a plain-edge D2 steel blade finished in black oxide and satin for excellent edge retention, paired with a lightweight aluminum handle that rides comfortably in a pocket. It’s a more conventional take on the Provoke platform, suited to everyday cutting tasks.

Key Specifications

• The blade wears a black oxide, satin finish for a durable, refined look.
• The aluminum handle stays lightweight for comfortable everyday carry.
