Minimalist Persian
Honoring an iconic 17th century Persian blade, the Minimalist® Persian features a long curvature design with minimalist grip for absolute precision and control. Put to use outdoors or for fine detailing, this fixed blade knife wields the impressive rigor of a scalpel—gliding and cutting wherever you decide it lands.
Designed by Alan Folts of Melbourne, Florida, the Fawkes soars above what you’d expect from any utility knife—its sleek presence makes it the everyday carry that stands out equally in performance as it does in aesthetics.
Chopping, slicing, or dicing, the S.P.E.C.™ (SMALL. POCKET. EVERYDAY. CLEAVER.) takes care of your cutting needs on the go. Designed by knifemaker Alan Folts, this portable knife is a coveted staple for camp kitchens, woodworking, and miscellaneous tasks in the garage. Inspired by the mighty butcher cleaver made for the chopping block, this reimagined knife doesn’t let its portable size hold it back.
Like an old-world Persian fixed blade, the Ritual™ tactical folding knife has a long, drastic blade curve and a substantial handle. But what makes it fit for a modern carry is the powerful Assisted Opening innovation that snaps open at lightning-fast speeds. It’s perfect for doing battle in ancient Persia and for making quick work of a package on your doorstep.
