The knife industry typically kicks off the new year at SHOT Show, the largest annual trade show for the shooting, hunting and firearms industry. Unsurprisingly, the event is canceled for 2021, but blade producers haven’t been idle, and they aren’t holding onto their cards either. CRKT is the first major brand to reveal what it’s been working on, showing off over 50 new pocket knives, multi-tools and accessories. Standing out from the release are some of the company’s weirdest and most creative knives yet.
Compano
The Compano calls to mind a video game prop, but it’s real and surprisingly practical too. The tool consists of a keychain carabiner and a folding 1.42-inch blade. It’s small, but an integrated finger loop makes it possible to maintain a solid grip.
