Overview

The T.O.A.D. (Toggle Operated Anti Drag) Folder has a unique toggle mechanism where the locking of the blade is accomplished entirely by the geometry of freely moving pivot points. Unlike other folding knife mechanisms, no drag or friction is generated.

The "Thumb Trap" consists of four individual thumb wheels, allowing ambidextrous opening while preventing thumb slippage in four directions.

One hand closing is also ambidextrous. To disengage the lock, it is only necessary to push up on either control pin, an action that also starts the blade towards closed. Once the blade passes the halfway point, pressure on the control pin can be released and the blade will complete its travel toward closed by spring pressure.

This T.O.A.D. folder has a damascus blade and a bead blast titanium frame with burl wood overlays. Damascus fittings. Ambidextrous swing arm pocket clip. Perfect function. Mint condition.

About the Maker

Hawk, Grant & Gavin
Hawk, Grant & Gavin

Grant Hawk and his son Gavin, of Idaho City, Idaho started making knives in 1994. Grant had just ended a 20 year career as a prospector and manufacturer of mining equipment. "I spent years making everything I needed out of anything I could find," Grant said. "I believe those experiences helped me to see solutions lying below the surface. To me, designing a knife is much like prospecting because it seems more a matter of discovery than an act of creation. The art of the prospector is to discover the unknown through the application of logic, hard work and luck. Whenever unrelated ideas are found to mesh perfectly, luck is playing its part and every prospector knows, it's better to be lucky than smart." After attending the Oregon Knife Collectors Association Show in 1994, Grant and Gavin were not only inspired to become knifemakers, but were determined to make a better folder, the result of which is their custom D.O.G. folder, now available from CRKT in a production model.
