That's the First Strike. I don't believe that CRKT makes them anymore, as I don't see them on their web site. I picked it up at my local Big 5 for $25.

How do you like the New Agent?
I like it quite a bit. The recoil is sharp, but there isn't much muzzle flip because the slide is so light. The grip safety and frame tang chewed up my hand pretty good a few weeks ago, but not so much this past weekend. I'll either develop a callous on the web of my hand, or replace the grip safety. It's more accurate than my XD .40 service model, fits my hand better, points more naturally, and is smaller and thinner for easier carry.

There are still a few spots online that sell them. I did find one here:

CRKT First Strike Knives

It's a GREAT knife. A bit too large for everyday carry, but good for knocking about the hills.

heres mine.
my CCC, new wolf recoil and firing pin spring, wilson drop in beaver tail safety, custom alumagrips, and pierce finger groove inserts, changed out front bushing and removed the FLGR for the original plug and short guide design.



and my new to me Defender.. she's well worn, but not worn out.
black wilson drop in beaver tail safety (i plan on having the frame done to match one day) also plan on changing the grips out and using the finger groove inserts like on my CCC.
