CRKT Ritual Compact Folding Knife Brown Micarta (CRKT-7465)

The CRKT Ritual Compact (CRKT-7465) is a striking everyday carry folding knife that combines the dramatic styling of a traditional Persian blade with modern materials and reliable performance. Designed by renowned custom knifemaker Alan Folts, the Ritual Compact delivers a unique appearance while remaining practical for everyday cutting tasks.

Its 3.33-inch upswept Persian-style blade is crafted from Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel, a premium Swedish steel known for its excellent corrosion resistance, edge retention, and ease of sharpening. The black stonewashed finish enhances durability while reducing glare and helping to conceal wear from regular use.

The knife opens quickly and smoothly using the flipper tab, assisted by CRKT’s Assisted Opening mechanism and an IKBS™ ball bearing pivot system, providing fast, effortless deployment. A robust liner lock securely holds the blade open during use for added confidence and safety.

The handle features brown Micarta scales paired with a durable stainless steel bolster, offering a comfortable grip and a refined appearance that complements the knife’s distinctive design. Despite its bold styling, the Ritual Compact is compact enough for everyday pocket carry and includes a deep-carry pocket clip for convenient access.

Whether you’re a knife collector, everyday carry enthusiast, or simply appreciate exceptional design, the CRKT Ritual Compact delivers premium craftsmanship, smooth operation, and unmistakable style.
