Designed by Tom Stokes for CRKT, the Knife Maintenance Tool is built to be the ultimate service instrument for any blade you may carry. Designed in an exercise to rethink the tools we carry, the Knife Maintenance Tool comes equipped with two different sharpeners and two sizes of TORX heads. Each included feature is meant to prepare users for any situation their knife may befall.
The design of the Knife Maintenance Tool allows it to feature a ceramic honing edge, tungsten carbide field sharpener and T6 and T8 Torx heads, all while remaining incredibly compact. The tool is meant to be clipped onto a key chain and also features a flathead screwdriver and bottle opener. Despite its compact size, the Knife Maintenance Tool is incredibly easy to use and does not require the user to work in awkward angles.
