The CRKT Pilar is named after the boat that Ernest Hemingway used to spy on German U-boats in the Caribbean during World War II. A Jesper Voxnaes design through and through, the Pilar is what the Danish knifemaker imagined Hemingway would have carried as his everyday folder Read More

Absolutely amazing little knife for the price. Fit and finish is beautiful and the design is a tiny little work of art. I'd never expect to get such a carefullly designed piece in this price range. It is heavy, due to the steel scales, but for the price I'm not complaining. The mini butcher-like blade shape is a refreshing change from the usual fair, and while not meant for fine surgery, it's quite useful and dead easy to sharpen. The design passes for a full Ti frame lock surprisingly well and it's my favorite micro folder in my collection.

Nice form factor, fits large hands. Smooth operation blade deployment. Great utility blade but the edge could have been finished better. A little heavy due to SS handle, would like to have seen a flipper tab. Great value at this price

Finger choil is awesome. Very sturdy knife, love carrying it. Looks nice. Easy one hand deployment with large finger hole. Only issue i had with it was i couldnt remove the pocket clip screws to change pocket clip location. Im a lefty so i wanted to switch the clip to the other end and i ended up stripping 2 of my torx bits trying to do so. But CRKT has a great customer service/warrenty service and i just mailed it back to them and they sent me a new one with the clip moved to the lefty tip up carry. Thanks CRKT for a great knife and great service!

Willie1321I really really like this little knife !
I fantasize of the high-end (titanium, quality steal, sweet bearings, etc) version of this, but of course, that’s not CRKT’s niche.
I have much ‘nicer’ EDC knives that are often less likely to find their way into my pocket, than this functional, enjoyable, stout little tool.

Heavier and thicker than I expected. The choil is good for a full four finger grip for those with larger hands

Great little knife, especially for the value. Arrives hair-shaving sharp, has plenty of heft to it, and the thickness of the blade combined with the design of it helps it cut just as well if not better than blades in higher price ranges. The knife also fits very easily in your pocket, for left or right handed tip up carry. Definitely a great value.
That being said, there are some things found lacking. A flipper tab would be awesome, especially considering the thumbhole included for deployment is not all that easy for single handed use, particularly those with larger hands. The backspacer was not lined up perfectly with the scales, and required a minor adjustment. There was also some noticeable blade play when closed, however there was none present while open.
All in all, this knife is a great value for anyone who might be looking for one, whether as a standalone knife or as another addition to your collection.

Love this nice. It is much sturdier than I initially expected. It is my overall favorite item out of everything that I have purchased on massdrop.

Very nice knife for the price. It feels sturdy and well made. would love a flipper on the back of it to make it easier to deploy with one hand. (It is possible to deploy with one hand but not as easy as other knives)

Cool little EDC. Small package and easy to carry. While the blade is small it's beefy.
Perfect utility EDC.
