CRKT Get.Shit.Done. Knife
- Hip minimal styling like modern furniture you can stab with
- Drop-point blade is 3.3", knife folded is 4.3", knife is 7.6" with blade out
- Knife guys love the frame lock, which keeps the blade in place with no give or play
- Might as well tell you the designer is Liong Mah in case that name means anything to you
- Model: 3700 (we like the brevity, but we hate having to type the manufacturer name into Google)
Now that's how you name a product.
Finally. About time. Maybe our decade-plus crusade for straight-talking retail is turning the tide. We didn’t name this the Get Shit Done knife, but we’re going to take a little credit for it anyway. Meh props to Columbia River Knife & Tool for dropping an S-bomb on unsuspecting knife shoppers.
It’s not just the profanity that makes it a great name. It’s not about gratuitous shock value. The profanity is the most effective way to express what the product does. It is, as the saying goes, tasteful and organic to the plot.
The knife itself isn’t half-bad either. It’s got a kind of designy look, for a knife: minimal, streamlined, like if a MacBook was knife. The designer, Liong Mah, is some kind of big deal. The drop-point blade seems to be a nice versatile shape for getting shit, stuff, and other things done. We’re told that AUS-8 steel is a cut (har har) above the usual 8Cr13MoV steel we sell.
The hottest feature is the frame lock, where the locking mechanism is a part of the frame rather than a piece bolted onto the frame. That means less give when the knife is open. Point is, it’s good knife for the aforementioned getting done of shit. If you know how to use terms like “jimping” and “chamfering” and “ricasso”, you can probably explain it better than we can.
We’re just glad we can bring this knife to its natural home. As an online store that isn’t afraid to speak the way people speak - with the occasional profanity - we don’t need to asterisk out the name Get Shit Done. We don’t have to cop out like most stores do and just list the acronym without any reference to what the letters mean.
The Get Shit Done knife. Beautiful. We only wish CRKT had the guts to use the real name in its official video:
The “Get Stuff Done” knife? Come on, guys. We all know that’s bullstuff.
