Description
The CRKT 2396 Minimalist features a 2" 8Cr13MoV stainless blade, spear point, plain edge.
The blade is 8Cr13MoV SS, a budget-friendly Chinese stainless that sharpens easily and resists rust well, though it needs touching up more often than premium steels. Stainless scales are durable and easy to clean, though heavier than polymer.
A fixed blade of this size suits hunting, camp and outdoor work where strength matters more than pocketability – there is no pivot to fail and it cleans easily.
Carry laws are set locally as well as by state, and a 2.0" blade is legal to carry in many places and not in others – check your state and city rules before you carry it. Knives ship directly to you with no FFL transfer and no background check, unlike a firearm. Keep the blade dry and the pivot clean, and touch the edge up on a strop or fine stone before it gets properly dull – it is far less work than bringing back a blunt edge.
Measuring just 5.2" total and weighing 2.1 ounces, this knife stays true to its name, giving you a take-anywhere minimalist knife thats ready for anything. Alan Folts of Melbourne, Florida released the original Minimalist design years ago and it has since expanded to a full line of outdoor, fixed blade knives. This small powerhouse packs a lot into its lightweight design. The 2.15", high-carbon stainless steel blade is easy to sharpen and its spear-point design strikes a balance between a dagger and a drop point blade, adept at both piercing and slicing. The polished resin-infused fiber handle is built with deep ergonomic choils for a no-slip grip. A versatile sheath is equipped to work as a neck knife, slip easily onto a belt or attach to gear.
