CRKT – 4041O – Provoke Kinematic – Folding Knife – 1.4116 Stainless Stonewash Hawkbill – Grivory – Orange Black

The CRKT 4041O Provoke Kinematic is a revolutionary folding karambit designed by renowned custom knifemaker Joe Caswell. Known for breaking traditional knife design norms, Caswell’s Provoke integrates CRKT’s proprietary Kinematic™ mechanism, a game-changing forward-deploying system that opens the blade from the top of the handle—allowing for seamless one-handed operation without repositioning your grip. The result is an ultra-fast deployment perfectly suited for tactical applications or everyday carry where speed and safety are paramount. This version of the Provoke features a lightweight Grivory® handle in high-visibility orange, paired with a black stonewashed blade, creating a striking yet functional contrast. The Grivory construction provides rugged durability and reduced weight for a more comfortable pocket or gear-carry experience. Its hawkbill-style blade—made from corrosion-resistant 1.4116 stainless steel—offers exceptional cutting performance and control, particularly in pulling or slashing motions. The blade’s chisel grind and plain edge deliver maximum slicing power with minimal drag. Functionality is further enhanced by a low-profile, flush-mounted pocket clip that maintains ergonomic integrity and reduces discomfort during hard use. Whether you’re on duty, on a mission, or seeking an innovative EDC companion, the CRKT 4041O Provoke Kinematic delivers industry-leading innovation in a compact, ready-for-action package.
