## Description

The service men and women of the coalition forces in the Middle East and Afghanistan require cutting tools that can stand up to the harsh demands of the desert. Our Carson Desert Tactical Folders have been developed specifically to blend into the desert environment. Our M16-13ZM Military model features our super rigid InterFrame build with 420J2 stainless steel liners, threaded stainless steel back spacers, and Desert Camo pattern glass filled nylon scales. The blade is non-reflective bead-blast finished AUS 4 stainless steel. It blends and almost disappears in the desert. This model features a 3.50" (89 mm) spear point blade and weighs only 3.5 oz. (99 g). It is ideal when weight and bulk must be kept to a minimum. It comes with a removable clothing/gear clip. It also features our automated liner safety. Automated liner safety is the locking liner safety innovation taken to the next level. The automated liner safety sets a pin between the locking liner and the frame. This pin acts as an additional layer of safety, so the locking liner is less likely to disengage during use. To close the knife, pull the red buttoned safety lever back, slide the locking liner over, and fold the blade into the closed position. Want one of the most secure safety systems on the market? The choice is automatic.The blade has Combined Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point Serrated edges.Specifications:Blade Length: 3.5" (88.9 mm)Edge: CombinationSteel: AUS 4Blade Finish: Bead BlastBlade Thickness: 0.1" (2.54 mm)Grind: HollowClosed Length: 4.75" (120.65 mm)Open Length: 8.25" (209.55 mm)Weight: 3.5 oz (99.22g)Handle: Glass Reinforced NylonStyle: Folding Knife with Locking Liner

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ my second CRKT!!!
*by V***. on July 19, 2013*

PROSthis knife is really great quality, I got this after I purchased a larger CRKT M21. very sharp out of the box and holds an edge well.this was to replace my similar style Gerber ( no comparison on quality this is much better however the Gerber retails at $35 and this is about double that (Amazon Prime makes it well worth the price of $48)the glass breaker works great and so does the seat belt cutterbelt clip holds very firm to a pocket or beltthe belt cutter makes it very easy to open giving you more leverageCONSthis is nitpicking but I did disassemble the knife to file a touch of material off of the blade where is comes in contact with the release spring to provide an even smoother and perfect function to the AutoLawks mechanism and ease the blade release when folding the knife, this is not a must but it made it as smooth to open and close as my larger M21. If you choose to do this be careful and only remove a little bit of material at a time in between testing otherwise you can ruin the knife allowing the spring to pass the blade and not lock. I will update with a video of the process when I have free time to edit and shoot. but this only takes about 10 minutes and requires a Torx driver , flathead driver, and a metal file or 400 grit piece of sandpaper.Thoughtswish the blade was coated like my M21. This is not a feature available on the EMT orange version but it is on the black law enforcement model of this M16. but I wanted the orange because it pops and is easy to find if you set it down and walk away from your work area.when i disassembled the knife I added locktite to the screw threads to keep them from backing out. (just in case cause I've had this problem on my 2 Gerbers before from heavy use)the AutoLawks is great and keeps the blade locked OPEN by not allowing the release spring to move. preventing the knife from folding onto your fingers during use, (this becomes a problem on most other brand folders after daily use)some don't like the feature because it adds an extra step but after a few days of use it becomes habit and I sometimes look for it on my older knives( the AutoLawks can be removed if you hate it with just 2 tools)UPDATE... almost a year has gone by I've used the knife almost every day opening and closing easily over 5000 times of not more. Knife is still amazing!! No major or even minor signs of wear and the edge is kept sharp with just a swipe or two of a fine Diamond sharpener every two weeks or so to keep it razor sharp. Very very happy with the knife.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ High Quality Knife
*by T***Y on December 5, 2012*

This knife is everything I was looking for; a locking multi-functional blade made of high quality steel with some additional emergency features, i.e. the seatbelt cutter and window breaker, all packaged into a size small enough to be carried in most everyday situations.I was unfamiliar with the Carson Flipper and AutoLAWKS features. The first few times I opened the knife I became concerned because it would only open 3/4 of the way, so I had to use another hand to pull the blade into its locked position. In less than five minutes, though, I had both opening and closing the knife with one hand down pat. The trick when opening the knife is to simply flick your wrist downwards as you press the Carson Flipper. As for the AutoLAWKS system, they provide you with a little card that shows four illustrated steps to closing the knife with one hand (pull the red saftey down, then use your thumb to press the locking bar into the side of the handle while using your finger to press the blade down; your thumb is in no danger as the Carson Flipper will stop the blade from fully closing, so you then remove your thumb and close the blade fully - it's an ingenious system and very quick after just five minutes of practice).The concerns expressed by a previous reviewer about the tungsten carbide window breaker are spot on. As that reviewer suggested, you can use the clip to attach it to the inside of your pants pocket and the problem is solved (although the top of the knife will be visible outside of your pants which may not do in some situations). I stumbled upon another solution in the Maglite AM2A346 Mini Maglite/Pocket Knife Leather Holster which I also purchased on Amazon. I actually intended to use it for my Mini Maglite and Leatherman, but my Leatherman is one of the originals and this holster was overkill for it (the Leatherman wasn't going to fall out, but it would move around too much). The M16-13ZLEK is perfect for it though. The knife is held securely and there are no worries whatsoever about the window breaker tearing holes in anything.Last bit of information since it isn't listed at present: The blade length is 3.25".

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great knife for an LEO
*by K***R on March 11, 2025*

It's a replacement for one that was damaged. As good as the previous one. Will buy again if needed.
