Product Description
Alan Folts, an experienced knifemaker, proudly presents the Minimalist® Katana. This elaborate design is a perfect blend of mastery and functionality. Borrowing from the original Minimalist's concept and integrating it with larger blades, this katana still highlights exemplary lightness and portability to establish remarkable versatility for various outdoor activities. Once you experience its three-finger handle grip design, it rests assured that this creation maintains the essence of being a true epitome of the Minimalist® series.
This "oversized" addition to the collection features a 3.56" trailing point blade crafted from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, providing a deep belly and a needle-like tip for precision slicing and detail work. The bead-blasted finish offers a clean, non-reflective look that complements the traditional Japanese-inspired silhouette. The ergonomics are defined by the signature deep finger grooves in the green resin-infused fiber (Micarta) handle, ensuring a rock-solid, high-control grip despite its slim profile. Whether worn as a neck knife or attached to a belt, it offers full-sized cutting power in a featherweight package.
