This used CRKT Squid XM is the upscaled evolution of Lucas Burnley’s original Squid design—retaining the clean utility-driven style, now with a more capable 3" blade and improved ergonomics. Built for real-world use, this knife is a perfect blend of practical performance and pocket-friendly form factor.
 
The D2 tool steel blade features a black finish and a versatile drop point profile, with a generous straight edge for easy maintenance and efficient slicing. A touch of belly near the tip gives you added control for precision cuts—whether you’re breaking down cardboard or handling everyday utility tasks.
 
The blue micarta handle scales give it a premium feel and grippy texture, paired with a steel frame lock that ensures confident lockup. Dual deployment with a thumb stud and flipper tab makes it easy and fun to open, and the ball-bearing pivot provides satisfyingly smooth action.
 
This knife is used and shows some wear from carry and use, but it’s fully functional and ready for more. It remains a reliable, hardworking EDC folder with style and substance.
