CRKT Folts Minimalist Review Media
Published: 12 years ago
Here is a very small and lightweight knife which gives surprising comfort and control, thanks to the unusual geometry of the full-tang 2.0" Wharncliffe blade, aided by three finger choils, hand-contoured green/black Micarta® scales, and a braided fob.

The Minimalist comes with a custom-fitted Zytel® sheath and neck paracord for inverted carry as a neck knife. Because the knife and sheath weigh only 1.6 ounces together, it is a personal carry you will barely notice.
Unlike many small neck knives, this handle is really functional for a wide variety of daily cutting tasks. The blade point gives excellent penetration, while the Razor-Sharp straight edge is perfect for scraping, woodworking and precision carving.
True to its name, this really is a minimal fixed blade, but it is also the most useful for its size that we have seen. And it's certainly a great value.
Specifications:
Overall Length: 5.00" (127 mm)
Blade Length: 2.0" (51 mm)
Blade Thickness: 0.10" (2.4 mm)
Blade Steel: 5Cr15MoV, HRC 55-57
Weight: 1.1 oz. (31 g)
