A compact neck knife featuring a full tang, created by renowned American knife designer Alan Folts
The CRKT Minimalist Persian draws both its name and style from the distinctive 17th-century ceremonial weapon, the Persian dagger
The bowie-style blade is crafted from stainless steel 8Cr13MoV, known for being easy to sharpen, offering reliable edge retention, and providing strong resistance to corrosion. Its matte surface, achieved with bead blasting, minimizes glare on the blade
Jimping is incorporated along the upper spine of the blade, enhancing handling control
The handle features an ergonomic design and is constructed from durable, visually appealing Micarta. Its textured surface guarantees a firm hold, whether hands are wet or dirty. A braided paracord at the handle’s end aids in drawing the knife from the sheath or pocket
A sheath made of thermoplastic material is included, allowing for versatile carry options on a belt or around the neck

CRKT (Columbia River Knife & Tool) is an American brand of knives and tools, founded in 1994 by Paul Gillespie and Rod Bremer, former employees of Kershaw Knives. It gained worldwide fame with its K.I.S.S. model, presented at the SHOT Show in 1997 - it sold out instantly and tripled the company's production capacity. CRKT has earned a reputation as a brand that focuses on innovation, as evidenced by its proprietary Deadbolt, Field Strip, and Kinematic systems, as well as its patented Veff-Serrations. The company is also known for its collaboration with renowned knifemakers such as Kit Carson, Ken Onion, and Liong Mah, resulting in knives with unique character and functionality. Among the most recognizable models are the M16, Minimalist, and Pilar, which have become icons in the world of EDC and tactical knives. Since its inception, CRKT has consistently promoted the motto “Confidence in Hand,” emphasizing that their knives are designed to provide the user not only with a tool, but above all with confidence in any situation.

This is not a large knife and that's exactly what I was looking for. The blade was sharp right out of the box, and the blade profile is nice. I like knives designed by Folts. I wish CRKT would use slightly better steel for this knife, but it's still a good knife.
