CRKT H.U.G. Knife

The CRKT H.U.G. Knife—or Halligan's Ultimate Gadget—features a 2.30-inch single-side, spear point blade that is useful for penknife-type tasks. Columbia River Knife & Tool made this lightweight utility knife available with a flat stainless steel Razor-Sharp or combo Razor-Sharp and Triple-Point serrated blade. CRKT and designer Ed Halligan made this knife's stainless steel frame with an internal Frame Lock for safe and predictable opening. A single Zytel scale makes the handle fit well in your hand, and a finger choil on the bottom and friction grooves at the thumb area create a secure grip.

Bottom Line: The CRKT H.U.G. Knife is one Hell of a Utility Gadget.

Innovative Design

This is a great knife. With a little practice you can open it with one hand. I have the non-serrated edge and love the quality of the blade. I carry it with me everyday and it has stayed sharp for a long time. The innovative design swayed me at first but it is also a very thin knife. I took the clip off and it is very easy to carry around in your pocket.

Discrete and functional

Small blade easily clips on pocket and doesn't groin you in the process. Serrated edge only 1.5cm, or about 25% of blade length. Need 2 hands to open effectively - can open w one, but takes concentration to not slice fingers (at least for me, a normal-sized 6'1" guy. Could thus seriously use open assist like the Tiny Tighe (also have that one). Does the job of a easy clip it and forget it knife. Three stars bc of lack of opening assist - I know one of these days I'm going to slice myself playing w the knife...

CRKT H.U.G. - Durable, Sharp & Unique

By:

..Bought this knife for a great price off Steepandcheap.com this past summer and have been very pleased with it thus far. I take it camping/backpacking and it has stood up to the test - I opted for the serrated edge and have used it for everything from fishing to cooking to cutting & sharpening tree branches for campfire cooking. It is very solidly built, and very sharp. I love the way it looks - such a unique, eye-catching design. This is a great knife; I highly recommend it.

Durable and Unique

Ed Halligan really created a great knife when he designed the HUG. It seems very durable and has the potential to be an excellent every-day-carry kind of knife. I was so excited when I got the knife in the mail that I cut up the box it came in, and I have no intentions of sending it back! Very easy to open with one hand. If it had Outburst Assist I think it would be a 5-star knife. Other than that I am very pleased. I wish I could rank it a 4.5.
