I own two.
They don't
need it.

Were the logos painted on in Taiwan when the knives were made?
The logos were laser engraved in the US.
Uhhh I do believe that was a slam.
do they have the new autolawks or the older lawks system?
Does the larger knife have an assited opening mechanism?
NM read it wrong, I assume both don't then.
you dont need any an assested open with these knives they open very fast with a little practece i have two and like them both. The only thing i dont like is the newer autolawks its a pain in the ass to close the knife.

The 14M's have the new AutoLAWKS system, but on these 12M's you have to manually slide the safety into place.
Are these made in the USA if so then I will order one!
How do these ship out (USPS, FedEx, UPS, etc)?

What he said!
I can't find anything about "US Made" on the CRKT website, so I'd have to assume they're not since they'd probably advertise it. At least the AUS-8 is Japanese blade steel vs the Chinese steel on the cheaper models. ARFCOM needs to commission a custom Emerson design next!
mjohn you are correct, Taiwan.

Thanks. How unfortunate.

They really aren't hard to close. Use forefinger to disengage autolawks and use thumb to release liner lock. Then you can let go with forefinger and close knife.
Are these a limited run or indefinitely produced as needed?
N.E.C.K.'s now available (again) in the store for pre-orders on the next batch, which is due in July along with a few new models

.
Do I understand correctly they now auto-"lawk"? I have two with the old-style (non-auto), and several with none. A knife I have to finger-fornicate to close is as useless and one you have to do the same to open.
Ask CRKT to dump that stupid lock, and I want a bunch. Otherwise, nice knives.

It takes less than one second to disengage the autolawks.
Unless of course, a person lacks basic hand to eye coordination.

Since I've been carrying one version or another of CRKT's knives for about ten years, several without the lock, I think I have that part figured out, thanks. Just thought I'd ask. Of course, there are some special people who need safeties on their tools, I'm just glad they work for you.

I'd prefer the Lawks was manual, that said I've grown used to the auto-lawks and they don't bother me.
What that mechanism is, its just a small tab that backs up the liner lock, just below the pivot, under the handle scale. If it really bothers you, it could be removed or easily filed down to be non-operable. This won't harm the liner lock in any way. I haven't actually looked (compared a manual to an auto) to see if it could be made manual, I'm sure its possible, but probably not simple as the mechanisms seem to operate differently enough.
I would like to preorder a Crawford NECK knife. Is this the right place to do so?
Thanks!

Sorry- we took the pre-order's down due to a delay. I will update here when everything gets squared away and I have confirmation of the order.
I'm in for a N.E.C.K. Please let me know when they are available.

ditto - when's the next batch ready?
and the tan case/mat combo?
thanks :D
The next batch of N.E.C.K.'s is in production and should be here in September. We did incur an additional engraving fee, so the price went up $3, but these are still a great deal for a great little knife!
The other new styles will be added once received and pictures are available, if not sooner.
ETA: Pre-order your N.E.C.K.
here
New styles? as in new models?! Did I miss the memo

You just got the memo

.
We had mentioned one or two of the new modles a while ago, but then ran into a glitch on the engraving. We got that all sorted out now, and will be posting pics of the new models as soon as they're in our hands.
The new models coming in are a KISS, Drifter Stainless, and Lake Laredo 2.

I received my knife from the first batch. It's great! I offer a picture of my Glock 23 in OD green, Streamlight TLR-1 weapon light, CRKT knife, and second chance vest.
