Published: 12 years ago
The Notorious 1167 folder has a high satin blade, bead blast finished frame and gray G10 scales. http://www.bladehq.com/cat--All-Items--1--1--search=CRKT+McGinnis+Notorious?x=0&y=0
The Gerry McGinnis designed Notorious features CRKT's OutBurst assisted opening system. Pressing one of the dual ramped thumb studs instantly springs the blade fully open after you have opened the blade approximately 30 degrees.
The 3.50" blade is a modified spear point with a recurve and a very high hollow grind, swedged at the top edge. There are ample friction grooves at the thumb. By maintaining a full-width spine nearly to the point, Gerry has created a blade with both excellent cutting ability and good penetration. The handle is exceptionally strong and rigid with two stainless steel frames and a stainless steel back spacer. Gerry has designed G10 scale onlays which fit the hand nicely and are CNC machined to give additional grip. The Notorious has a custom drilled stainless steel clip for tip-up carry.

Blade Length: 3.5"
Blade Thickness: 0.121"
Blade Steel: 8Cr14MoV, 58-59 HRC
