CRKT Biwa – 3.02″ Satin 8Cr13MoV Drop Point Brown & Black G10 2382

The CRKT Biwa is a featherweight fixed blade designed by Alan Folts for high-alpine adventures where every gram matters. Named after a species of Japanese trout, this model provides a high-performance narrative by pairing a 3.02-inch 8Cr13MoV stainless steel blade with a long distal taper, making it a powerhouse for paring, caping, and fine detail work. Weighing a mere 1.6 ounces, the Biwa features a full-tang construction for surprising strength and a slim, checkered brown and black G10 handle that ensures a secure grip even when wet. Whether tucked into a tackle box or worn as a neck knife, the Biwa is the ultimate low-profile companion for the backcountry camp menu.

Key Features:

• Ultra-Lightweight Hunting Tool: At only 1.6 oz, this knife offers a full 3-inch blade without the bulk, making it ideal for backpackers, fly fishers, and minimalist hunters.

• High-Carbon Stainless Steel: The 8Cr13MoV blade features a clean satin finish and is engineered to take a razor edge quickly and resist corrosion in damp environments.

• Exceptional Control: The handle is meticulously crafted with checkering and finger grooves to provide a locked-in feel, allowing for precise cuts even when the knife is used for filleting or skinning.
