CRKT Ancestor Taschenmesser

A nod to the iconic knives that came before it, the Ancestor is a folding knife that balances old-fashioned style with modern convenience. Made from tough D2 blade steel, the knife is ready for hard use, with improved slicing capabilities thanks to the upswept tanto profile—a shape that originated in another millennium. The liner lock and IKBS™ ball bearings ensure safe and smooth action, while the G10 handle has excellent grip and comes in a striking pattern that’s reminiscent of classic wood or gemstone. The Ancestor is an everyday carry that you’ll be reaching for today, tomorrow, and years to come.
