Compact fixed blade with 1.98" D2 steel Wharncliffe blade and red/white/blue G10 handle. Designed by Alan Folts for everyday carry with three-finger choil and versatile sheath.
Developed in collaboration with renowned custom knifemaker Alan Folts, the Minimalist Wharncliffe redefines what a compact fixed blade can accomplish. This knife proves that serious cutting performance doesn't require bulk.
The 1.98-inch Wharncliffe blade is forged from D2 steel, a material prized for its exceptional edge retention and resistance to wear. The Wharncliffe profile—with its straight edge and upswept tip—excels at precision cutting tasks while maintaining structural integrity. Three-finger choils positioned along the blade ensure comfort and precise control, whether you're making detailed cuts or handling heavier work.
The multi-colored G10 handle combines visual appeal with genuine functionality. G10 is a fiberglass-reinforced laminate that resists moisture, temperature extremes, and daily wear. A fob attachment point adds versatility for securing the knife to gear or your person.
The durable thermoplastic sheath offers multiple mounting options, allowing you to configure carry to your needs—belt loop, pack attachment, or kit integration. This flexibility means your Minimalist Wharncliffe rides exactly where you need it, ready for immediate access.
For those who understand that the best knife is the one you actually carry, the Minimalist Wharncliffe delivers. It's built for real work, designed by someone who understands blade craft, and backed by CRKT's reputation for quality.
