Columbia River Knives CR2385 CRKT Folts Minimalist Neck Knife 2" Wharncliffe Plain Blade Green/Black Micarta Handles Custom Fitted Zytel® Sheath MFG'S Price $39.95 "NEW" In Mint Condition! Made in China

Columbia River Knives CR2385 CRKT Folts Minimalist Neck Knife 2.16" Black Stonewashed Drop Point Blade, G10 Handles! Alan Folts is a knife-maker and metalworker in Greenville, N.C., who makes a remarkable range of custom objects, including titanium chopsticks. His Minimalist neck knife has proven to be very popular, so we are offering our CRKT production version. 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.
