Designed in collaboration with Spartan Precision Equipment founder Rob Gearing, the CRKT Altai draws direct inspiration from backcountry hunting in Mongolia's Altai Mountains. Traditional field knives usually focus solely on cutting tasks, but the Altai combines slicing performance with essential fire-starting and edge-maintenance gear in one system.

CRKT Altai FAQ

Designed in collaboration with Spartan Precision Equipment, the CRKT Altai is a purpose-built hunting fixed blade that combines a high-visibility coated blade with integrated fire-starting and edge-honing gear.

What steel is used for the CRKT Altai blade?
The CRKT Altai features 14C28N stainless steel with an orange ceramic coating. This steel provides dependable toughness, excellent corrosion resistance, and good edge retention, while the high-visibility ceramic finish ensures the knife is easy to spot in outdoor environments.
What accessories come integrated into the CRKT Altai sheath?
The injection-molded sheath includes both a fire-starting ferro rod and a ceramic honing rod to maintain the cutting edge in the field. The knife spine also features a dedicated cutout notch engineered specifically to strike sparks from the ferro rod.
What tasks is the CRKT Altai best suited for?
The CRKT Altai is engineered primarily for hunting, skinning, and field dressing. Its high flat grind and pronounced belly make slicing through game efficient, while the compact 3.5-inch blade length allows for precise control during outdoor work.
Why does the CRKT Altai handle feature a rear finger ring?
The ring at the base of the handle provides extra grip retention by allowing you to loop your pinky finger through it. This feature prevents the knife from slipping out of your hand when dealing with wet, bloody, or slippery field conditions.
How does the CRKT Altai sheath attach to gear?
The factory sheath comes with a retention clip suitable for standard belt carry or inside-the-waistband use. While the hole spacing can fit options like UltiClips, mounting hardware like a Tek-Lok or SBBT clip may require drilling an additional hole into the injection-molded sheath.
