Biwa | CRKT®

Designed by Alan Folts.

Canada's source for CRKT Knives and Tools.

The Minimalist® series by Alan Folts focuses on two ideas; Creative futuristic design, and precise ergonomics. Built for outdoors people who pride themselves on their super lightweight gear; The Biwa weighs in at a tiny 45 grams, but is strong enough to get the job done.

Named after a species of Japanese trout, the Biwa™ hits the mark. The long distal taper on the satin-finished blade is a powerhouse for paring, capping, and more. When met with the checkering on the G10 handle, it’s crafted so that you’ll know just where the blade is even if the whole knife sinks out of sight. A strong, injection-molded sheath lashes easily to a pack or quickly becomes a neck knife.
