From their “summit” series, the CRKT Mt Shasta knife is purpose-built for backcountry carriage. While the other knives in our test are manufactured for “everyday carry” in civilization or wherever your day takes you, the Mt. Shasta knife attempts to appeal to the back-country traveler. As a result it is compact, lightweight and very durable. Our tested model plunged many hundreds of feet from a wilderness rock climb and continues to work smoothly. However, the small form-factor is more difficult to grip during heavy usage. The ergonomics of usage, especially as compared to Editors’ Choice award winner Benchmade Mini-Barrage 585 are far inferior. If you are looking for a compact, lightweight knife with excellent durability, consider the offering from CRKT (Pronounced “cricket;” this acronym stands for Columbia River Knife and Tool).
