CRKT SIWI™ Fixed Blade

Built by a hero, refined by an expert. Retired Sergeant Major, Darrin Sirois channeled experience from 25 years of active duty into the creation of his original design. The knife world loved it. Then, renowned expert, Chris Williams made several small suggestions. The revisions boosted the SiWi™ compact tactical fixed blade into a league all its own. This is collaboration at its finest. If there’s one thing that Darrin Sirois has learned from his time overseas, it’s that if a tool can’t endure some of the most extreme conditions imaginable, it’s not worth having on hand. So when he was in his Fayetteville, North Carolina shop, designing the knife that became the SiWi™, his mission was singular: make it last. Then Chris Williams stepped in. He’s a master of aesthetics, and with several small tweaks, together they elevated the SiWi™ to a design force to be reckoned with and gave it a name that reflects the collaborative process. Match made.
This mission-ready fixed blade is a compact powerhouse. Though that sounds like a paradox, the proof is in the incredibly stout modified drop point SK5 carbon steel blade. Finished with a non-reflective and highly resistant black powder coat, it’s built to last, a quality that’s equally as evident in its unique G10 handles. The handles match the blade in its compact-yet-stout capacity with texture for a firm grip even in the grittiest conditions.
The subtle jimping on the back spine finishes the look and feel. Finally, the glass-reinforced nylon sheath stands up to its counterpoint when it comes to utility with many different carry options. When two great minds converge to create a knife, you know it’s going to be good…the SiWi™ far exceeds expectations.
About the Forged By War® programIn 2013, Ryan Johnson of RMJ Tactical, designer of elite, military, tactical tomahawks, approached CRKT® with the news that he had been working with a few combat veterans that had returned from war with varying degrees of post-traumatic stress (PTS). To help work through their challenges, they have been designing and forging steel into custom tools. Drawing from their experience earned in combat situations, they have been creating tools they wished they had available to them on the battlefield. 
CRKT® cares deeply about our returning veterans and saw a way to give back to the community that created them. In 2016, they launched the Forged By War® program. These are mission-ready tools, designed by veterans, with a portion of the proceeds donated to the veterans' charity of choice.
