CRKT VT Fighter Compact -- check out this revamped, versatile folding knife designed by Brian Tighe. It's lighter and more compact, just like its name suggests. The handle comes with finger grooves for ultimate comfort and a secure grip.

The blade is made from 8Cr13MoV, which is a solid choice for affordable everyday knives. While it doesn’t blow you away with exceptional performance, it certainly delivers decent results for its price. This alloy resists corrosion well, exhibits good wear resistance, and has decent cutting abilities. Overall, it’s somewhat similar to 420HC and has a hardened toughness rating of up to 58 HRC.

The ergonomic handle is crafted from durable nylon -- this resilient material stands strong against impacts and open flames. One downside is its poor cold tolerance; it can lose impact resistance at temperatures below 17°C. But aside from that, this material genuinely justifies its cost.
