His Minimalist neck knives have proven to be very popular, so we are now offering three CRKT production versions. They are very small and lightweight knives which give surprising comfort and control, thanks to the unusual geometry of the full-tang blades, aided by three finger choils, friction grooves for the thumb, hand-contoured green-black Micarta scales, and a braided fob. Unlike many small neck knives, this handle is really functional for a wide variety of daily cutting tasks. Each Minimalist comes with a custom-fitted Zytel sheath and neck paracord for inverted carry as a neck knife. The knife is held securely in place by a positive detent which locks the base of the blade in place for maximum safety. Because the knife and sheath weigh about two ounces together, it is a personal carry you will barely notice. Minimalist Bowie. We offer this deep-bellied clip-point Bowie style 2-1/8-Inch blade for those who desire a classic hunting knife blade shape. The Minimalist Bowie makes a great wilderness carry, and can be used for camp chores, cooking, and even skinning and dressing in a pinch. It is also an excellent survival knife. True to their name, these really are minimal fixed blades, but they are also the most useful for their size that we have seen. And they are certainly a great value, which explains why the Minimalist family continues to grow. ## Features - Easy To Sharpen: High carbon stainless steel blade takes an edge well - Minimizes Reflectivity: Bead blast finish reduces reflection - Strong and Visual: resin infused fiber handle combines strength with visual appeal - Gear Compatible: Durable thermoplastic sheath with mounting options - Compact Utility: Lightweight and easy to carry ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0030IT76C | | Age Range (Description) | Adult | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #22,617 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #5 in Fixed-Blade Knives | | Blade Edge | Plain | | Blade Length | 1.25 Inches | | Blade Material | Stainless Steel | | Blade Shape | Clip Point | | Blade Type | Bowie | | Brand | CRKT | | Brand Name | CRKT | | Color | Bowie | | Customer Package Type | FFP | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 3,471 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00794023238709, 99794023238703 | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Handle Material | Resin Infused Fiber | | Included Components | CRKT 2387, Pamphlet | | Is Product Cordless | Yes | | Item Length | 5.13 Inches | | Item Shape | Clip Point | | Item Type Name | MINIMALIST® BOWIE | | Item Weight | 46 Grams | | Manufacturer | Columbia River Knife & Tool | | Model Name | Minimalist® Bowie | | Model Number | 2387 | | Part Number | 2387 | | Product Care Instructions | Hand Wash Only | | Recommended Uses For Product | Hunting, Skinning | | Reusability | Disposable | | Size | 1.3" | | Special Feature | Full Tang, Ergonomic Handle, Non-Slip Grip, Lightweight | | Special Features | Full Tang, Ergonomic Handle, Non-Slip Grip, Lightweight | | Style | Bowie | | Theme | Outdoor/Survival | | UPC | 794023238709 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Lifetime Warranty | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Blade Material:** Stainless Steel - **Brand:** CRKT - **Color:** Bowie - **Handle Material:** Resin Infused Fiber - **Included Components:** CRKT 2387, Pamphlet - **Model Name:** Minimalist® Bowie - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Hunting, Skinning - **Special Feature:** Full Tang, Ergonomic Handle, Non-Slip Grip, Lightweight - **Style:** Bowie ## Images ![Minimalist Bowie Outdoor Survival Fixed Blade Knife with Sheath: Stainless Steel Plain Edge Blade, Micarta Handle, 2387 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61-DgI-LPFL.jpg) ![Minimalist Bowie Outdoor Survival Fixed Blade Knife with Sheath: Stainless Steel Plain Edge Blade, Micarta Handle, 2387 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/614TWvw43vL.jpg) ![Minimalist Bowie Outdoor Survival Fixed Blade Knife with Sheath: Stainless Steel Plain Edge Blade, Micarta Handle, 2387 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61duiXTa68L.jpg) ![Minimalist Bowie Outdoor Survival Fixed Blade Knife with Sheath: Stainless Steel Plain Edge Blade, Micarta Handle, 2387 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Kth1KBpEL.jpg) ![Minimalist Bowie Outdoor Survival Fixed Blade Knife with Sheath: Stainless Steel Plain Edge Blade, Micarta Handle, 2387 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61PJkAUqrCL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Are these knives made in USA or China?** A: Made in China, but you can occasionally find the USA-made Alan Folts' shopmade custom versions for around $150. They're also in a much better 154CM steel. However, it seems he hasn't made one in some time, and has largely focused on folders. **Q: Say I were want to carry is upside down from Pals/ Molle webbing, does anyone have a recommened way? Just 550 cord or small zipties?** A: it has 550 cord holes and fo-550 cord neck less, this is the best way to strap it on. Having said that do not carry it with the hilt down like it is designed. The knife will fall out quickly and you will either lose it or have it stab you depending on where you place it. The sheath is ok for casual civilian where but even then I've lost two of them, put it any environment like hunting or even worse deployment and it will be gone in a few moments. **Q: how long is the knife? handle & length ?** A: I love it. I have it around my neck right now. I am 6'1" 300+ lbs. and feels great in my hand. It has a 2.1 in. bowie blade made form 5Cr15MoV steel with a hand contoured resin and fiber handle with a braided fob. Overall length is 5.13 in. Includes a 2.5 in. glass filled nylon sheath. ATTRIBUTES Blade Detail: Plain Blade Length (inches): 2.125 Blade Material: 5Cr15MoV Carry System: Neck Lanyard Handle Material: Micarta Overall Length (inches): 5.13 **Q: Does the sheath have good retention (no accidental loss of knife) for both clip and neck carry? Does it keep this retention over time?** A: I've had mine for 5 years, carried it around my neck for that time as well. The ONLY time it has come loose from the sheath was when I was doing jump rope in the police academy. One time in 5 years under pretty rough jumping because I suck at jumping rope. This knife, for me, has been so dependable I sleep with it every night. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by T***S on May 25, 2018* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***N on May 13, 2012* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by E***Y on October 30, 2025* ## Frequently Bought Together - CRKT Minimalist Bowie Neck : Compact Fixed Blade Knife, Folts Utility with Bead Blast Blade, Resin Infused Fiber Handle, and Sheath 2387 - UltiClip Slim 3.3 - ULTICLIP SLIM 2.2 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/1943720-minimalist-bowie-outdoor-survival-fixed-blade-knife-with-sheath-stainless](https://www.desertcart.be/products/1943720-minimalist-bowie-outdoor-survival-fixed-blade-knife-with-sheath-stainless) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
