Böker & CRKT Trio

The Böker Plus Gnome:

is a practical and stylish option for those seeking a compact fixed knife. Jesper Voxnaes’ design expertise is evident in its easy handling despite its small size. The choice of D2 steel for the blade is commendable for its durability and edge retention, although it does require some attention to moisture to prevent corrosion. The olive wood handle not only adds to its aesthetic appeal but also offers a reliable grip in various conditions. The decorative metal rivets and double red line further enhance its overall look. It is a well-thought-out combination of functionality and design.

CRKT Obake 2367 fixed knife, Lucas Burnley design:

is a captivating fusion of traditional Japanese craftsmanship and contemporary design elements. Lucas Burnley’s homage to Japanese style through the binding around the handle and the blade shape seems like a thoughtful touch, preserving the essence of Japanese knife-making. The eccentric etching on the blade adds a modern twist while still honouring tradition. The inclusion of a plastic sheath with a separate belt clip offers practicality and versatility in carrying the knife. Being able to customise the attachment of the belt clip adds a level of convenience for users to carry it according to their preference and comfort.

The CRKT Minimalist Persian 2379:

is a well-designed and versatile neck knife. The emphasis on ergonomics with the finger grooves and thumb jimping seems like it would make it comfortable to hold and easy to control. The use of 5cr15MoV steel with a hollow grind also suggests that it’s capable of handling various cutting tasks effectively. The inclusion of both a neck cord and a belt clip with the plastic sheath offers flexibility in how you choose to carry it, whether you prefer wearing it around your neck for easy access or attaching it to your belt for convenience.
