Columbia River 2474C Squid 2.27" Folding Drop Point Plain D2 Stonewash Black G10 Button Lock Knife

The Columbia River 2474C Squid is a compact everyday-carry folding knife from CRKT (Columbia River Knife & Tool), built around a 2.27" drop-point blade in D2 tool steel with a workhorse stonewashed finish. Part of designer Lucas Burnley's popular Squid platform, this upgraded Button Lock variant delivers refined materials in a slim, pocket-friendly form factor that measures just 3.47" closed with an overall length of 5.70" and a carry weight of only 2.9 oz.

The blade is ground from D2 steel hardened to 60-62 Rc, giving true tool-steel edge retention in a compact footprint. The shallow-bellied drop-point profile with a plain edge handles everyday cutting tasks from breaking down boxes to food prep, while the stonewashed finish helps hide the scuffs and scratches of daily carry. An IKBS ball-bearing pivot keeps deployment smooth, with a blade thickness of 0.11" balancing strength and slice-ability.

Textured black G-10 handle scales provide a secure grip in a slim, lightweight package. Lockup is handled by CRKT's button lock, a release set into the handle that allows safe one-handed closure without putting fingers in the blade path. A pocket clip keeps the Squid accessible for everyday carry.

The 2474C Squid Button Lock bridges designer styling with hard-use materials, making it a versatile EDC folder well suited for office, travel, or as a compact backup blade.
