## Description

Product Description This Blade Was Meant for Walking. A fixed blade tactical knife featuring two edges and one solid piece of hot forged steel, it knows its place—clipped to your boot.Crafted by A.G. Russell of Rogers, AR, The Sting displays one of the inventors of the modern knife industry’s attention to detail. After all, despite all his awards and achievements, he is first and foremost a custom knifemaker.A virtually indestructible spear point blade begins life as an ordinary blank of 1050 carbon steel, similar to the alloy used in traditional Samurai swords. It’s then hot forged and precision ground into its final shape. Dual cutting edges give you twice the protection and double the attitude. We then apply a black non-reflective powder coat finish to resist corrosion in tactical environments that are as tough as you are. Grab hold of the handle and feel how it’s perfectly contoured to fit your bare or gloved hand. Notice its heft, balance and thumb detents for grip. There’s even a large lanyard hole so you can use it with a wrist lanyard, or carry it as a neck knife. When it comes to defense, this blade means business.The CRKT Sting comes complete with a custom nylon-stitched sheath with a glass reinforced nylon insert and a strapping option for versatile gear attachments or a clip for attaching it to your belt, pack or boot. Wherever it sits on your gear, it won’t be sitting there for long.Strap it down and take it into any situation. It’s ready to battle with any environment.Specifications:Blade Length: 3.197" (81.2 mm)Edge: Dual PlainSteel: 1050Blade Finish: Black Powder CoatBlade Thickness: 0.137" (3.48 mm)Grind: Double EdgeOpen Length: 6.85" (173.99 mm)Weight: 3.9 oz (110.56g)Handle: Hot Forged 1050 Carbon SteelStyle: Fixed Blade Knife with SheathSheath Material: Nylon w/Glass-Reinforced Nylon InsertSheath Weight: 2.4 oz (68.04g) From the Manufacturer The AG Russell Sting made by Columbia River Knife and Tool is a fixed 1050 HRC 54-55 carbon steel 3.2-inch stainless steel blade.

Review: Good, sharp knife; decent carring system - I buy a lot of knives and I can confidently say that it's VERY hard to find a Chinese-made knife that does not come flawed and/or very dull. I am sad that all the Portland knife companies (Gerber, Kershaw, and CRKT) have cut costs by outsourcing their production to China. However, unlike Gerber and Kershaw, CRKT has kept their quality standards high. The Sting is a surprisingly-heavy full-tang knife that is actually forged from a solid piece of metal. This makes it feel extremely-sturdy for a dagger and very unlikely to fail with reasonable use. The hard plastic sheath is firmly wrapped in nylon and holds the knife very tightly, yet still allows easy draw. Both sides of the knife also came very sharp- able to easily cut paper and much sharper than the Gerber Mark II or Kershaw Secret Agent that I bought. The edges are ground cleanly and symmetrically, and the centerline perfectly bisects the dagger into two halves. As one would hope and expect of a dagger, the tip is extremely sharp. These should all be given qualities, but are very hard to find in most retail daggers it seems. The knife's velcro straps work fine for placement on either the calf or the bicep. Velcro has the benefit of one-size-fits-all for a variety of human shapes, but lack the comfort of a more customized system. It can be hard to find the happy medium between it being too tight that it cuts off circulation, or too loose so it shimmies out of place. Still for the price, I feel that it fills this role just fine; more expensive, customized aftermarket sheaths and securing systems can always be purchased. Overall, the CRKT Sting is a good value for a quality-made dagger/boot knife and certainly beats most of its competitors. You will not find another good, ready-to-wear knife of the same type at this price.
Review: The Standard By Which Other Knives Are Judged - First of all, I must enthusiastically agree with every positive 4- and 5-star review this product has received. Every good thing these people are saying is absolutely true. That being said, my personal impression is that this is a very high quality blade. I expected nothing less from Columbia River and I was not disappointed. From the shape, to the materials, to even the brilliant execution of the sheath, this knife has quickly become a standard by which I judge other knives I consider for purchase or use. The knife is all one piece, solid metal from stem to stern with no additional handle material or needless embellishments. The grip lends itself to easy removal from the sheath - but only when the user demands, of course - and fits nicely in my hand. The depressions in the handle make it easy to maintain your grip, although you should probably exercise due care if using this with wet hands as the surface is rather smooth. Understand that the description says "razor sharp" for a reason; out of the box this knife needs nothing. The blade is double edged and razor-sharp on both sides, which makes it great in a survival situation if, for instance, you wish to lash it to a pole and make a spear. I am sure this might be useful in a self defense scenario if necessary, but I don't think I should comment on that. I wouldn't want to risk having this tool labeled a "weapon" because that might make it difficult to have this shipped to your location. The lanyard hole on the end makes the knife more versatile in that you can attach a length of paracord, carabiner, or your favorite decorative key fob. The durable, well-made sheath is as high quality as the knife it protects. The hard-sided case holds the Sting securely until you are ready to draw, and the blade returns home with a satisfying click that lets you know it isn't going anywhere. You are given a variety of carry options with the configurable, secure velcro straps. You can choose to use some, all, or none of the straps to comfortably and confidently carry this knife on belt or boot, tip up or tip down. This velcro material is some ingenious sorcery that has both the soft and rough parts of the velcro merged in each piece. I don't know how they did it, but they did it. I try to steer clear of the word "tactical" these days, because due to over-use it's fast losing its currency, but this sheath is tactical in every sense of the word. The construction of the sheath, the appearance and the materials used give it a very professional appearance. It's a sheath that could reasonably be sold by itself for what we're paying for the whole package. Police, military, or security personnel could probably carry this on the job - though you may want to check with your CO first! The Sting is well balanced, which shouldn't surprise you. When you buy the Columbia River stuff you're paying top dollar for quality, and you get what you pay for. Although the balance on the knife is exemplary, I cannot attest to its throwing characteristics because, well, I'm not one to hurl a knife this nice. However, I have just placed an order for a second Sting to tuck away in case anything ever happens to my first one. This knife is THAT good. I'm making sure I have an extra BEFORE the day comes that I need it. I intend to get some use out of this knife and I'm willing to pay for the peace of mind of being able to take it anywhere, and use it for anything, without reservation. I wouldn't expect this knife to break, and I hope never to lose it or have it confiscated, but I am aware that the unexpected can happen. The mere fact that I'm buying a knife like this suggests that preparedness is more than just a buzzword for me. I think it makes sense to invest a little more up-front for the security of having a back-up to this incredible blade. That being the case, I suppose there's a chance I may one day edit this review to let y'all know how this knife performs when thrown. Oh, who am I kidding. Even when I own two of them this knife is too nice to go around throwing it at things...unless SHTF and I need to, in which case I am sure it will perform like the top of the line knife that it is.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: The overall length in the description says 12', and the blade length 3.1', but this knife looks to be more or less half blade/half handle. How long is**
A: 12 feet? 3 foot blade? sounds more like a sword

**Q: Is the knife full tang?**
A: The blade and handle are from the same piece of metal - the knife is one solid piece.

**Q: Does this fit well on the back of the belt? Does the sheath support wearing it this way?**
A: You can wear it horizontally on a narrow belt, but this is probably one of the worst designed sheaths that I've ever encountered. As much as I'd like to, I haven't even been able to carry this, otherwise, superb knife. They should've incorporated a regular boot clip to the sheath for more well-rounded carry options.

**Q: what is the overall length and blade length? Thank Yoou.**
A: 3 inch blade over all length 6 1/4

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Brilliant Knife
*by L***N on March 1, 2015*

I absolutely love this knife, and it among the best I have ever owned. It is just small enough to be practical for every day carry, but just large enough so that it functions as a highly effective tool, and the sheath is great as well. I haven't found one thing I could complain about after carrying it with me every day for the past month. The Blade The blade of any knife is the most important part, and the Sting has it were it counts. The knife came very sharp right out of the box and the overall shape of the blade has a very nice contour to it. It is a double edge, dagger style blade which makes it optimal for penetrating, and the powder coating, which covers not only the blade but the entire piece is nearly flawless. The shape of the blade also makes this knife one of the easiest to sharpen, and it holds an edge very well. The Handle There is no need to say if this knife is full tang or not because it is one solid chunk of steel, and no flimsy stainless steel either, durable, high quality carbon steel. The handle fits nicely in the hand, and even though it it metal, it does not feel uncomfortable in a tight grip. Some people with larger hands may had a problem in a reverse grip though because of the size of the overall piece. For the size that it is, this blade does have a nice weight to it, which I find desirable as well because it shows the rugged durability of the piece. The Sheath I have to say, before this I was not a fan of nylon sheaths, and I thought that I would have to get a leather or kydex on for this knife, but I was very pleasantly surprised. The sheath is awesome and nearly matches the quality of the blade. It is heavy duty nylon on the outside with a plastic insert that really holds the knife tight. My favorite part thought is the two straps that make this piece very easy to carry around your ankle or your arm. Just awesome Overall this is an extremely good knife, even if it were more that 40 bucks. The price makes it that much better. I would definitely recommend this knife to anyone who has even thought about buying it. I am an extremely picky person when it comes to my blades and I was just blown away by this one. Just get it. You will not be dissappointed
