CRKT: Trio Of Cutting-Edge Knives Drop For BLADE Show Texas

0

CRKT is releasing three Alan Folts designs–all folders–in anticipation of the Ft. Worth Knife Show.

CRKT, never one to rest on its laurels, has three new knife drops in anticipation of the Feb. 23-24, 2024 Blade Show Texas in Fort Worth. Alan Folts takes centerstage with this release, with all three of the designs emanating from the Florida-based custom knife maker. Interestingly, Folts made his mark as a fixed-blade man, but the two versions of the Ritual and brand-new Obverse mark somewhat of a new calling in the realm of folders.

“Alan Folts is a master craftsman and an acclaimed designer with over two dozen CRKT models to his credit in his time working with us,” said Doug Flagg, CRKT VP of Marketing and Innovation. “This latest collection represents Alan’s wide-ranging inspirations, innovative approach to knifemaking and the commitment to excellence that we both share.”

As a side note, the new premium knives from CRKT are listed as “coming soon” on CRKT.com but will be available for sale as BLADE Show Texas kicks off on Friday, February 23rd. For consumers in the Fort Worth area, the company also extends an invitation to its booth at the event, where they can meet the Folts in person.
