CRKT Symmetry 7190 — a straightforward and handy everyday carry knife brought to life by designer and knife enthusiast Richard Rogers. It's compact and lightweight, making it low-key in your pocket and easy to carry around.

The blade is crafted from 8Cr14MoV steel, known for its rust resistance and quick sharpening. It’s a solid choice for everyday knives, offering decent performance without breaking the bank. While it resists corrosion well and shows good wear resistance and cutting capability, it doesn’t quite match the performance of pricier alloys.

The handle is made of thermoplastic — a tough material that stands up well to impacts and open flames. However, it struggles with cold temperatures; below 17 degrees Celsius, its impact resistance may dip. Overall, this material provides great value for the price.
