Knife - Essential Tool for Camping, Outdoor Adventure and collection

Compact yet powerful
The CRKT Squid XM is the natural evolution of the iconic Squid model: it retains the original compactness but with a slightly longer blade to offer more versatility without being bulky. The format is perfectly balanced: not too large, simply “extra medium.”

High performance in every situation
The D2 steel blade with stonewash finish is ready for heavy-duty use, offering superb edge retention and high hardness. It is ideal for daily use, at work or in leisure.

Smooth and precise opening
Thanks to the IKBS™ system with integrated ball bearings in the pivot, blade opening via thumb stud is extremely smooth and fast. A technical solution that significantly improves the user experience.

Intuitive button lock closure
The button lock system ensures safe and quick one-handed closure. Intuitive and reliable, it is also fidget-friendly for those who appreciate smooth and pleasant knife handling.

Solid and original handle
The burlap-effect green micarta handle offers excellent grip even in wet or sweaty conditions, combining mechanical strength with a distinctive, natural aesthetic.

Discreet portability
The low-profile pocket clip ensures safe and discreet carry, making the Squid XM an ideal everyday companion wherever you go.

Jellyfish have stingers; octopuses have intelligence, but when it comes to marine invertebrates, none is as fast as the squid. And that is precisely what makes the latest Squid folding knife so special.

Just as fascinating and versatile as its popular predecessor, now with a push-button closure that's easy and safe to use. The D2 blade with stonewash finish offers excellent edge hold, opening smoothly thanks to a convenient pommel and IKBS ball bearings. The G10 handle is durable and provides a secure grip, whatever the conditions.

Small in size but big in performance the Squid with push-button closure strikes the perfect balance between simplicity, performance and functionality.
