The CRKT 4031 Razel GT transforms traditional folding knife design with its distinctive chisel grind geometry, delivering precision cutting performance for tactical and everyday carry applications. This compact folder combines the durability of 8Cr13MoV stainless steel with ergonomic aluminum construction for reliable field performance.
What Makes This Different
The Razel GT features a unique chisel grind that creates an exceptionally sharp edge with superior penetration capabilities compared to traditional dual-bevel designs. The 3.02-inch blade maintains its cutting angle longer than conventional grinds, requiring less frequent sharpening while delivering cleaner cuts through rope, webbing, and packaging materials. The asymmetrical grind design concentrates cutting force along a single bevel for enhanced slicing efficiency.
Key Features
- 3.02-inch 8Cr13MoV stainless steel blade with chisel grind geometry

- Liner lock mechanism with secure blade retention
- Reversible pocket clip for tip-up or tip-down carry

Field testing demonstrates the Razel GT excels in utility cutting tasks where precision matters. The chisel grind slices through cardboard and plastic packaging with minimal effort, while the robust liner lock maintains blade security during heavy-use applications. The aluminum handle construction resists corrosion in marine environments while providing sufficient grip texture for wet-weather operation.
