Custom knifemaker and metalworker Alan Folts really knows how to get the most into a small fixed blade knife design.
The S.P.E.W.™ (Small Pocket Everyday Wharncliffe), is a slimmed down design for easy carry and all around blade utility. It is tough to argue against the value of having a knife along with you, especially one as versatile and comfortable as the S.P.E.W.™.
The key to any great user knife is control. These small fixed blade designs from Alan Folts offer a few of the best that we have ever seen.
G10 Handles
Formed in a sheet under high pressure by combining fiberglass and an epoxy resin binder. These handles are lightweight and shaped to ensure a solid grip.
Kydex Sheath
Waterproof, scratch resistant, and low friction. It will hold its shape and makes a great alternative to leather.

Great Knife, terrible sheath!
I was going to wear it as a neck knife but it kept falling out of the sheath. Otherwise it is a great knife.

I love this blade, it has helped process and skin many deer this season. I will be getting another as backup.

Great Defensive Pocket Fixed Blade, but...
This knife is the perfect size and blade profile for my typical EDC defensive needs. My only issue is? It really needs to be made from a better steel. I'd be happy with a good tool steel like D2, CPM-MagnaCut or CRUWEAR. However, another option would be one of the premium stainless steel options (M390, S30V, S35VN, S45VN, or even S90V).
