Alan Folts' Compact Fixed Blade Neck Knife
When it comes to the realm of edged tools, few offer the utility and convenience of a compact fixed blade neck knife. Designed by Alan Folts, a seasoned craftsman from Melbourne, FL with over two decades of experience in custom knife making, this tool is as much about function as it is about form.
The heart of this knife lies in its 2.16-inch high carbon stainless steel blade. This material choice ensures that sharpening is an effortless task while maintaining a keen edge through repeated use. Complementing the robust nature of the blade is its black stonewash finish—offering both durability and an aesthetic that matures gracefully with time.
In handling this piece, you'll appreciate the G10 handle which provides exceptional grip under any condition you might encounter—be it dampness or dry heat. This attribute makes it reliable whether you're deep in the woods or simply tackling chores around your home.
A thoughtful inclusion for those who value versatility is its thermoplastic sheath. Not only does it promise steadfast protection for your blade when not in use but also offers multiple mounting options to suit your gear setup preferences.
This lightweight yet sturdy instrument embodies practical design without sacrificing portability—a testament to Alan Folts’ dedication to blending traditional skills with modern needs.
