The Fire Spark combines CRKT's Outburst assisted opening with their Fire Safe mechanism for reliable, safe and solid performance. The blade is locked by the Fire Safe pin when closed and released by firmly pressing the thumb stud and pushing outward where the assisted opening system takes over. The blade locks firmly open via the Inter Frame build with a stainless steel liner lock. The 1050K Fire Spark features a CNC machined 6061 aluminum handle with a G-10 scales and four finger grooves for superior grip. The lanyard hole is large enough for a double lanyard loop and the handle features a "skull cracker" tip. The blade on the Fire Spark is a modified spear point design with a razor sharp edge, high hollow grind and swedged top edge. Blade steel is premium 8Cr14MoV stainless steel. The Fire Spark includes a 3-way reversible pocket clip for ambidextrous use.
