The CRKT 6450K Drifter delivers reliable cutting performance in a compact everyday carry package. This folding knife features a corrosion-resistant TiCN coating that extends blade life while maintaining a low-profile appearance for professional environments.
What Makes This Different
The Drifter stands apart from basic pocket knives through its titanium carbonitride coating, which provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard stainless steel finishes. The 8Cr14MoV steel blade holds a sharp edge longer than most budget alternatives while remaining easy to resharpen. Ken Onion's design philosophy emphasizes functional geometry over flashy aesthetics, resulting in a blade profile optimized for utility tasks.Key Features
