Chris Reeve Carbon Fiber Small Inkosi - Tanto

So you are looking for a quality knife that is compact, light, extremely robust, with an outstanding cutting ability for your everyday tasks? You have found the right knife, the Chris Reeve small Inksoi tanto blade in carbon fiber. The blade provides you with a compact yet capable cutting ability; the combination of the titanium framelock and the carbon fiber maintains strength while keeping the weight to a minimum, and the workmanship is something that can only really be fully appreciated in your hands.

Carbon Fiber

The carbon fiber on this knife is likely the first thing you will notice different from a standard small inkosi. Carbon Fiber has been used structurally on this knife in a way that takes advantage of its phenomenal properties. Carbon fiber is extremely rigid and one of the strongest materials for its strength-to-weight ratio.

Tanto Blade Shape

The tanto blade shape is one of CRK's most tactical shapes in their knife line. The blade grinds on this knife are shallow hollow grinds that combine the best of both worlds: a hollow grind and a flat grind. The blade steel that is used on this Reeve EDC is American-made CPM Magnacut steel. The MagnaCut steel is an excellent cutlery steel that provides a balanced approach to the properties of knife steel. The sub-3" blade length of 2.8" is compact yet strong. The inkosi has an 8% thicker blade stock than the small sebenza 31, making the blade much stronger.

Lock and Carry

This Inkosi knife has the legendary Reeve integral framelock with the added benefits of a ceramic lock bar interface that increases the lock life and reduces wear. The carbon fiber inkosi also has dual anodized titanium thumb lugs for easy right or left-handed opening. The folding knife is fitted with a pocket clip and a black cord lanyard, and a titanium bead is an added touch on this exclusive knife in our Foundry Gear series.

Top of the Line Quality

This American-made knife is quality crafted in Boise, Idaho, and is well known for its high level of tolerances, fit and finish, and lifetime warranty that really can't be beaten. After years of work, this knife can be sent in for a full tune-up, 'spa treatment', and it comes back ready to serve another lifetime. Make the small inkosi a big part of your everyday carry rotation.

The Chris Reeve small inkosi comes packaged with several hex tools, fluorinated grease, and a chamois polishing cloth.
