K.I.S.S. S.S.T.

By popular demand, the coolest K.I.S.S. knife yet.
We had to make it, because everyone said they wanted one.

After the immense success of Knifemakers’ Guild Member Ed Halligan’s CRKT K.I.S.S. knives, we thought the family was complete. There’s the
Tanto-blade Original K.I.S.S. (Keep It Super Simple) which started it all, the Classic K.I.S.S. with a modified clip point blade, the hefty Sampson’s
K.I.S.S. and the delicate Delilah’s P.E.C.K. With eleven CRKT variations on the K.I.S.S., what more was there to say?
Then a package arrived from Ed. Inside was the knife you see here, an even more minimal K.I.S.S., shorter, lighter, simpler in detail, with a modified
Wharncliffe blade. Ed called it the S.S.T., or Short, Stubby Thing. What to do? We weren’t sure.

Then Ed started making custom versions of the S.S.T. and spread the word on his web site to see him at the CRKT booth at the next major knife show.
Wham! All we heard from knife dealers for three days was, “When can I get that new S.S.T. K.I.S.S. of Ed’s?” You want it, you’ve got it. And there are
plenty of reasons why this would be your K.I.S.S. of choice.

It’s the ultimate money clip knife, with the design clarified to only the bare essentials.

It also makes an excellent utility knife, with hundreds of daily uses. More heft and handle width make it easier to use. And the S.S.T. is available with both
Razor-Sharp and Combination Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point™ Serrated cutting edges, which makes it ideal for cutting string, rope or corrugated boxes.

Build and finish are as great as the Original K.I.S.S.: blade and handle are AUS 6M stainless steel, fine bead blast finished. The single side ground blade
tightly seals against the handle when closed, and that prevents accidental cuts. When open, the integral Frame Lock™ gives a secure lock-up.
