You can check them all out here on Amazon. It should be noted that as well as color options, CRKT offers the Minimalist neck knife in a wide range of blade styles: from my Wharncliffe blade, to tantos and bowies. I’m not the biggest fan of the colour scheme choice, but CRKT now offers an alternate version of the Minimalist that I think looks better: black scales and powder coated blade much more appealing. I vote for a Laconico or Fiddleback next!ĬRKT Minimalist Folts Neck Knife – Amazon / Blade HQĪesthetically, the Minimalist is very utilitarian in nature with its dull green/black micarta (or similar material) scales. More collaborations like this please, CRKT.

This approach, which has been successfully used by knife companies (such as in the recent case of the Kershaw Emerson CQC-6K) leads to the best of both worlds – it gives exposure to the custom maker before an audience that may have never heard of him, and it also gives opportunity for those of us who are not in a position to drop a serious amount of cash on a full blown custom knife to get a “diet coke” experience for a substantially cheaper entry price. While so many other neck knives at its price point turned out to be a gimmick, the CRKT Minimalist is actually quite useful as an EDC tool, and in my opinion, is one of the best back up blades in the business.ĬRKT very wisely contracted Alan Folts for this design in order to recreate a production model of his very own custom Minimalist.
The CRKT Minimalist set the standard in the knife world as one of the first truly affordable neck knives to enter the market that still offers a level of practicality that made it viable as a utility blade.
