CRKT - SiWi Outdoor Knife

Designed by Darrin William Sirois in Fayetteville, North Carolina

Built by a hero, refined by an expert. Darrin Sirois, retired sergeant, has brought the experience from 25 years of active service into the development of his original design. The knife world loved it. Then the renowned expert Chris Williams made several small suggestions. The revisions elevated the compact tactical Fixed Blade from SiWi™ to a league of its own. This is collaboration at its finest

If there's one thing Darrin Sirois has learned from his time overseas, it's: If a tool is not able to withstand some of the most extreme conditions imaginable, it is not worth having at hand. So when he designed the knife in his store in Fayetteville, North Carolina, that would later become SiWi™, his mission was unique: to maintain it in the long run. Then Chris Williams entered. He is a master of aesthetics, and with several small optimizations, they have together elevated the SiWi™ to an expected design force and given it a name that reflects the collaborative process. Match made

This ready-to-use fixed blade is a compact powerhouse. Although this may sound like a paradox, the proof lies in the incredibly strong modified SK5 carbon steel. Equipped with an anti-reflective and highly resistant black powder coating, it is designed for a long service life, a quality that is also reflected in the unique G10 handles. The handles are compatible with the 3,3" blade in its compact yet sturdy design with texture for a strong grip, even in extreme conditions. The subtle hump on the back of the spine Finally, the nylon sheath holds its own when it comes to the benefit of many different carrying options

When two great minds come together to create a knife, you know it will be good... the SiWi™ far exceeds expectations

About the Forged By War® program

In the year 2013, Ryan Johnson from RMJ Tactical, designer of elite, military, and tactical tomahawks, approached CRKT® with the message that he had collaborated with a few combat veterans who had returned from war with varying degrees of post-traumatic stress (PTS)

To help them tackle their challenges, they have designed steel and forged it into custom tools. Drawing on their experience in combat situations, they have developed tools they wished they had available on the battlefield

CRKT® cares deeply about our returning veterans, and we've found a way to give back to the community they've created. In 2016, we launched the Forged By War® program

These are ready-to-use tools developed by veterans, with a portion of the proceeds donated to the veterans' charity organization
