Medford Smooth Criminal MK039
Discover the Medford Smooth Criminal MK039—a knife designed to surprise and enthrall. From the moment you grip its hard-anodized aluminum chassis, you’ll feel the perfect balance of strength and agility. Whether you’re opening boxes, preparing a campsite meal or simply appreciating the artistry of fine blades, this knife delivers flawless performance at every turn.
At its heart lies a CPM S35VN stainless steel blade, celebrated for razor-sharp edge retention and exceptional toughness. Every cut you make will glide with effortless precision, while the blade’s corrosion resistance ensures it remains a reliable companion in any environment. The sleek black finish of the chassis isn’t just for show—it adds a layer of scratch-resistant protection that keeps your knife looking as formidable as it performs.
The Smooth Criminal MK039 features our signature button-lock mechanism, crafted from uncoated stainless steel for rock-solid reliability. With a simple press, the blade releases smoothly and locks securely, giving you the confidence to tackle any task. When it’s time to close, the same mechanism lets you fold the blade swiftly and safely back into its 100% American-made frame.
Every aspect of the MK039 was engineered for everyday carry. At just 5 ounces, it’s light enough to carry all day yet substantial enough to handle serious work. The low-profile clip allows discreet, deep-carry in any pocket, while the ergonomically contoured scales provide a comfortable, secure grip—even in wet or muddy conditions. From urban errands to backcountry adventures, this knife stands ready for action.
Medford Knife & Tool doesn’t compromise. The Smooth Criminal MK039 is assembled entirely in the USA, under the exacting standards that have made our name synonymous with quality and innovation. When you choose this knife, you’re choosing American craftsmanship you can trust—day in, day out.
