Simple, Lightweight, and Reliable Sometimes, you don't need a toothpick, a pair of tin snips, or toenail scissor--you just need a strong, sharp, reliable cutting blade. The Crater c33L is a streamlined, folding knife with a sturdy, locking blade. Its durable, 60-percent glass-filled nylon handle is shaped and balanced to sit comfortably in your hand. And weighing in at just 2.38 ounces, the c33L will rest snugly in your pocket or pack.The in-handle storage system means you won't have to carry a sheath, and the knife's folding carabiner clip makes it easy to attach your knife to a belt loop or the side of your pack, so it's always on hand when you need it. Mariners who keep their tools on lines will have a special appreciation for this clip. And it does double-duty as a bottle-opener. You can also opt to secure your knife with the included removable pocket clip. In short, this knife was designed to meet the practical needs of active outdoorsmen, and it delivers.Premium, US-Made Steel for Performance A sharp knife is not only more useful than a dull knife, it's also safer and easier to control. A blade with a durable precision edge lets you make the cuts you want safely and quickly.Crater Series knives are crafted out of US-made 420HC steel from Crucible Metals. This steel was selected by Leatherman because it provides excellent edge retention, which means your knife stays sharp longer. Plus 420HC is tough, not brittle, and it is corrosion resistant.Crater Series knives are finished with a hollow grind, the same "premium" grind found on straight razors and some high-end kitchen cutlery. This grind technique creates a natural release when cutting, so materials don't stick to the knife, giving you a better cutting edge. The knife's full 2.6-inch blade provides plenty of versatility for cooking up backcountry meals, cutting rope to build the perfect bear hang, or even breaking down boxes to toss in the recycling.Locking, Drop-Style Blade for Safety A liner lock lets you secure the blade of your c33L in the open position, so you don't have to worry about it closing on your hand while you cut. This safety feature is especially important when slicing through tough materials like braided nylon rope. Having a liner lock instead of a traditional lockback system makes the c33L easier to open with one hand. It also ensures that it's easy to unlock the blade and close the knife.Leatherman's registered Blade Launcher technology makes opening this Crater Series knife even easier. With the Blade Launcher, you simply engage a conveniently placed mechanism to open your knife. A standard thumb stud contributes to the simplicity of one-handed operation, too.Leatherman uses blades shaped in a drop-style for all their c33 knives because they fit nicely in the handle of your knife when not in use. Plus, a drop-style blade is stronger than a clip point blade, which you might see on other pocket knives.When it is time to sharpen your knife, you'll appreciate that Leatherman knives can be re-sharpened using standard methods. There are many ways to maintain a sharp blade, so you should be able to find one that works well for you. Sharpening stones, round files, and special kits (not included) can help ensure long-lasting performance.About Leatherman: Time-Tested Survival Tools The original Pocket Survival Tool, devised by mechanical engineer Tim Leatherman, hit the market in 1983. By 1993, Leatherman was selling more than one million tools a year. In the blockbuster movie "Speed," Keanu Reeves used a Leatherman to save the passengers on a doomed bus. Even MacGyver has been seen with one of these trusty tools. But their best reviews come from everyday people. The Leatherman survival tool is a mainstay of travelers, sailors, fishermen, hunters, backpackers, and scouts.The simple, lightweight Crater Series knives draw on Leatherman's legacy. While the c33L knife doesn't feature the signature Leatherman pliers design, it is available in several multi-tool variations. If you work with rope or clean fish often, you might enjoy the versatility offered by the c33Lx, which has a combination straight and serrated blade. Similarly, Leatherman offers the c33 for those who prefer a knife without a blade launcher, and the c33T, for those who utilize Phillips and flathead screwdrivers on a daily basis. Leatherman also offers the c33B, a multi-knife with an integrated bit driver.All Leatherman tools, including the c33L Straight Blade Knife, are backed by a 25-year warranty.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ You Cannot Go Wrong
*by M***K on June 7, 2014*

This knife is the best bang for your knife buying buck. I have purchased three of these and they simply are the best. They come razor sharp out of the box and hold their edge very well even with moderate to heavy use. I like the kick start feature as the blade can easily be fully deployed with just a flick of the finger. One handed operation is a snap. The removable clip offers excellent retention. The knife has a good heft to it and feels good in the hand. The auto lock secures the blade in place when open and allows zero slop. The lock also releases with one movement and requires only one hand to close. This knife offers superior value and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an everyday carry blade.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not perfect, but still pretty great.
*by J***H on June 24, 2015*

I had an e33l until losing it recently, and since Leatherman discontinued the Expanse series my options for a replacement became somewhat limited. For the price, the Crater series does the job--but it's half a step down from the Expanse.From a design standpoint, the c33l and the e33l are basically identical except for the cladding on the e33l handle. They are roughly the same weight, have identical dimensions, and even look similar. Really the only major difference is the blade, but it's a pretty big difference. I haven't put the 420HC blade through its paces yet, but if it behaves like every other 420 steel I've ever used I have a feeling I'll really miss the 154CM steel on the Expanse. Keeping an edge is important, and while I'm reasonably proficient at sharpening knives I don't like having to do it very often.Otherwise, everything else I liked about the Expanse is there: slim profile, deep pocket clip, good size to the blade for various tasks, even the bronze bushings on the pivot. It opens and closes smoothly, and the carabiner / bottle opener brought me back to Leatherman when I started looking at other brands. It's just so darn handy.It isn't perfect, but for most of what I use it for it's pretty great.

### ⭐ Dangerous product
*by N***D on November 15, 2016*

Beware, the so-called blade launcher does not work well but, more importantly, the frame of the knife is very sharp and when you apply pressure to the launcher, you can cut yourself on the frame.There are many great leatherman products - this is not one of them.
