CRKT Kit Carson knives in Lost in Space on Netflix
on: April 28, 2018, 01:37:13 PM
I haven't got any screen shots but the knives issued on the Jupiter mission are M16 or M21 knives from CRKT.  It's a pretty distinctive handle so there's not much doubt, other than the specific model.



I am on Episode 3 now, and it was seen a bit in the second episode for sure, and I think also the first.  The hard part about binge watching is that you forget when specifically you saw something!

Anyone else spot it?

For sure man. Seems like standard issue in that storyline. They use a MT on episode 10 but for the life of me can’t make it out. But seems like 1/2 of a plier based MT. Like the pliers were removed?

I binge watched every episode they have on Netflix. Awesome show! You will see more knife use so keep a eye out.

You see it used quite a lot in Episode 3- it is definitely a spear point.

Maybe there could have been a better choice than the Ozark Trail multitools (although maybe it was the descendants of the bean counters that chose the new Tough Tool for the Australian Army that chose it  :facepalm:) but I really feel like the CRKT M16 would be one of the knives that would be on my list to take into space.  It's lightweight, it's sleek and it has about as much blade with as minimal a handle as you are likely to get.  But then I may be biased- I have one of the originals, from back in the pre-flipper days.  :D

I saw a TV show called Strike Back a few years ago in which they used CRKT.  :tu: They saved the day cutting cable, prying something or stabbing something with those folders every season, you saw a CRKT every 3-4 episodes, but also other brands.  :salute:

Also, a CRKT M21 is used in the movie The Gunman by Sean Penn when he goes all CQC in the final battle, though it's not the knife used to kill the bad guy

I'm kind of leaning to a modified gerber suspension, the cutouts on the handle are closest to the suspension, from googling the ganzo pics, it doesnt match, and I have the craptacular ozark one(unless its a different version) and the pattern does not match. It was a hard pic to screen cap from netflix as I kept getting the fast forward or rewind point at a bad angle, but it may also be a CGI object.

Ganzo makes several models, many are rebranded

this looks similar : 

There are several Chinese makers that make various tools and can make any variety of handles.

e.g. this is about $4



Gerber suspension has the same cutouts in each handle and the image looks different here.

It could even be something made just for the series

As pointed it is hard to identify from the screen capture

I was curious about the M16, so I contacted CRKT about it.  I was curious to see if it was an official product placement or what the deal was.  It turns out they were unaware that it was even used in the show, but they are excited to check it out now.  :D

I've got a PECK somewhere  - that's a Kit Carson design isn't it?  :think: I'll post a keyboard pic of it later.

I love it! I'm really not a fan of tactical stuff, but since seeing your original post it's been in the back of my mind.

Having carried it for a couple of days now, I'm really impressed. Great deployment, nice thick blade, comfortable in the hand and way cool. I will test it out with some proper cutting tasks as soon as I can and I would definitely take it into space with me. It's probably ideal for cutting yourself out of your space suit when the Alien sprays you with its acid blood. Or slicing a facehugger from your buddy. Or severing the supply pipes on the Millenium Falcon.

Can't be in my M16 club now. That stands for Mates 16 - there (will be) are 16 of us - it's a great laugh - burgers and chips, comics, dungeons and dragons, manic miner, and mega wheelies. You'd love it. Except you can't join because you didn't buy Rons M-16.

I don't believe so.  I think the PECK is the smaller version of the KISS, which is an Ed Halligan design.  Still something to be proud to own though, as both Kit and Ed are making knives on the other side of The Veil now.

I remember picking up the KISS knife when it first came out.  Man that thing was revolutionary at the time.  The ultimate minimalist knife!

I didn´t know Kit Carson and Ed Halligan have passed away.

Both passed away at around the same time too.  It was very rough.  We had teamed up with CRKT on one of our recent anniversary celebrations and offered a few custom commemorative knives from each of them as prizes.  That was something I was very proud of, as CRKT made the memorial knives specifically for us.
