Those in the sport of climbing, like world record-holding speed climber and CRKT knife designer Hans Florine, know all too well that you've got to keep weight down when you're battling gravity. The NIAD¢ (Nose In A Day) is a folding knife that embodies lightweight design and cutting performance.
CRKT's NIAD is a two-piece design with a chisel ground, partially serrated tanto style stainless steel blade and corrosion-resistant, strong 6Al4V titanium frame lock handle. A large hole is provided for securely attaching to a carabiner, so your knife is right where you need it, when you need it. While specifically designed by Hans Florine for climbing endeavors, the NIAD is a capable backpacking knife for the ounce-counting junkies among us.
