Crkt Centofante Tribute 2 Lockback Knife MICARTA (2.875" Satin) 6050

Frank Centofante, one of the pioneers in the custom knifemaking movement, passed away in September of 2009 before he could see this lockback design go into CRKT production. After a few moments of reflection, we decided to name the series the Centofante Tribute™.

The Tribute™ 2, Frank's final production collaboration, is a fitting statement of simplicity and craftsmanship. It is basically a classic drop point lockback folder, with no gimmicks, no frills.

First, there is the CRKT Centofante 2.875" drop point Razor-Sharp blade of premium 7Cr17MoV stainless steel in a satin finish. It basically has a high flat grind and a nail nick for opening. That's it. No bumps or facets, just the cleanest and simplest shape possible, ground and finished by hand.

The 3.875" open-build frame is simply two pieces of strong and also a lightweight Micarta®, layered in chestnut brown and black. There is the stainless steel lockback lever which forms the spine, and a stainless steel back spacer.

The result: Knives for gentlemen (or ladies) that are at home anywhere.
