This MKAD by CKF Empat is in like new conditions, flawless. CKF is taking steps to expand its market share with the introduction of a lower-priced brand, called MKAD. The Anton Malyshev-designed Empat, the fourth MKAD knife, functions as a bridge between the traditional higher-end CKF offerings and the new MKAD strategy. “People were asking for M390 for $250-320, so we did it,” says CKF Founder Mike Kulygin. “It’s our way of saying, ‘Hey knife world, hello from MKAD (The Moscow Automobile Ring Road, MKAD, МКАД) again.’” The Empat features a 3.62-inch blade and a titanium frame lock.
