Trending: CRKT Minimalist

This week’s Minimalist Monday features a versatile favourite with a great balance of form and function. Custom maker Alan Folts had in his mind to help people learn about knives as tools, and created the CRKT Minimalist with utility in the forefront. Designed with ergonomics in mind, the Minimalist is a full tang 5Cr13Mov knife that comes in a variety of blade shapes for every occasion, all of which come at an average of 2” in length. Sheathed in Zytel, it works well as a neck knife or in the pocket alike. The handle is contoured to afford a secure 3-finger grip, and a lanyard helps with added purchase for larger hands. Jimping along the thumb ramp and linen Micarta scales finish off the package. A compact blade that fits in the hand like nothing else, its popularity for EDC comes to no surprise.

CRKT Piet

If there’s one knife designer you should have on your radar by now, it’s Jesper Voxnaes. He’s the mastermind behind smash hit EDC knives like the CRKT Amicus and CRKT Pilar (which now sits as the 5th most popular knife on our site). This time around with the new CRKT Piet, he brings urban inspiration to his utilitarian design language, resulting in a sleeker, lighter, and slimmer knife than his past offerings. If you’ve been meaning to get your hands on a Voxnaes design to EDC in the city, the Piet might be right up your alley.

Even in this lighter weight, city-slicking knife, you can see Voxnaes’s utility-driven design language throughout. It starts with the choice of a glass reinforced-fiber polyamide handle that helps the Piet weigh in at just 2.5oz, which rides more comfortably in the pocket compared to a heavier knife like the 4.2oz CRKT Pilar. An enlarged thumbhole makes for easy one-handed deployment of its 2.69" blade. A plain edge and drop point blade shape offer versatility for most everyday cutting tasks, while a full finger choil and liner lock ensure control and security during hard use. Last but not least, 8Cr13MoV steel on the blade is low maintenance and performs well for the price, making it ideal for an everyday carry.

Other hallmark Voxnaes design details round out the knife as a solid EDC. A contrasting blue back spacer also has moderate jimping for extra grip in your palm. The polyamide handle features a subtle yet tactile textured pattern throughout for improved grip while keeping a low profile. Finally, a reversible pocket clip allows for tip up, ambidextrous carry and a lanyard hole enables quick retrieval from your pocket. You can pick up this new Voxnaes design for your EDC at the link below.

Trending: Kaweco AL Sport Black Night Edition

Kaweco is known for their student pens and pocket pens, and their AL Sport is arguably their most popular model for everyday carry. While they periodically come out with special editions and colors, the limited Black Night Edition marks the first time they have gone with an all blacked-out aesthetic. The aluminum matte black body with unaccented markings, blacked out metal finial, and black steel nib lets it slip in perfectly into Stealthy Saturday. Compact and robust, this German-made palm-sized fountain pen is just 4.1 inches closed, and has a octagonal-shaped screw-on cap for security and to prevent the pen rolling off tables or other surfaces. Posting the cap extends the full length to 5.2 inches, turning this mini pen into a comfortable jotter and notetaker. The aluminum body gives it some good weight in the hand and helps it survive daily wear and tear, and you can grab the optional pocket clip for a more secure carry. It comes with an ink catridge but you can also get Kaweco’s Mini Fountain Pen Converter so you can refill it with your own preferred brand and type of fountain pen ink. If you’re looking to carry a smooth-writing fountain pen that fits your all-black or tactical-themed EDC, grab the limited Kaweco AL Sport Black Night Edition now, available through the link below.
