Kershaw Emerson CQC-10K Folding Pocket Knife

Born as a hunting knife, the CQC-10K is versatile enough to handle various outdoor activities such as camping and bushcrafting, which have become increasingly popular survival challenges. It is designed to minimize hand fatigue during tough tasks like gutting, skinning, boning, and filleting. Additionally, the CQC-10K is also effective in splitting wood, clearing brush, and starting fires.

The knife features a deeply curved handle and a blade that can be easily sharpened to hold an edge longer than expected. Whether utilizing the patented wave-shaped opening feature or the simple thumb disk for manual opening, owners of the CQC-10K are well-equipped for wilderness adventures. Field dressing larger game like deer, boar, elk, or bear becomes effortless with the light, securely locked 3.5-inch blade and its textured grip made from G-10 on the front and rust-resistant bead-blasted stainless steel on the back.

Hunters and survivalists will appreciate the affordability and versatility of the CQC-10K, a product of the successful collaboration between Kershaw and Emerson known for their expertise and integrity. The frame lock ensures that the open blade remains stable and secure, with a portion of the handle moving behind the blade to lock it in position.

Pre-drilled holes allow users to change the position of the tip or the side on which the knife is carried. The blade is made of 8Cr14MoV steel, a carbon-dense, heat-treated compound that offers strength, hardness, and excellent edge retention. It also contains additional chromium for increased stain resistance. The front handle is made of olive drab G-10 with a matte finish, providing a non-reflective property ideal for hunting. The back handle has a 410 bead-blasted finish, achieved by applying a fine medium of glass and aluminum oxide beads under high speed and pressure to create a non-reflective surface.
