CRKT Provoke 4040BG Folding Karambit – 2.41″ D2 Steel Blade, Bright Green Cerakote, Kinematic Technology

The CRKT Provoke 4040BG is a groundbreaking folding karambit that redefined what a tactical folding knife can be. As the first knife in the world to feature CRKT’s patented Kinematic technology, the Provoke delivers an entirely new deployment experience — one that is both mechanically fascinating and functionally formidable.

This variant pairs a 2.41-inch D2 tool steel blade with a striking Bright Green Cerakote finish, offering exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and visual impact. The handle is crafted from aircraft-grade 6061 aluminum — the same material trusted in aerospace and defense applications — finished in matching Bright Green Cerakote for durability and a bold, cohesive look.

**How Kinematic Works:**
A simple nudge of the upper crossbar with your thumb while your fingers grip the handle sends the blade lunging forward, locking securely into the open position. To close, shift the discreet lever at the base of the finger loop and the blade retreats smoothly back into the handle. The result is a draw-and-deploy sequence unlike anything else on the market.

**First-of-Its-Kind Pocket Clip:**
The Provoke also introduces the world’s first near-flush pocket clip, sitting almost completely recessed within the handle profile. Activated with light thumb pressure, it provides secure carry without snagging or printing excessively in the pocket.
