The Microtech Feather Fixed Blade brings a distinctive interpretation of the karambit concept to a compact, lightweight fixed-blade platform. Created as a collaboration with Bastinelli Knives, the Feather combines an unconventional profile with a double-ringed design and slightly angled blade, providing a secure, controlled feel in the hand. With its compact dimensions and full-concealment sheath, it's designed to be an unobtrusive addition to a carefully assembled everyday carry or gear setup.
Measuring 6.64 inches overall with a 2.22-inch blade, the Feather maintains a compact footprint without feeling insubstantial. The slightly angled blade gives the knife its signature karambit-inspired character while contributing to the distinctive handling characteristics of the design. Its fixed-blade construction eliminates moving parts, keeping the platform straightforward and ready for use when needed.
The Feather's double-ringed design is one of its defining features. The integrated rings provide multiple points for gripping and handling the knife, giving users options for maintaining control during a variety of cutting maneuvers. This distinctive configuration also makes the Feather immediately recognizable as a collaboration between Microtech and Bastinelli Knives.
Both the blade and handle feature the same Distressed Black finish, giving the entire knife a cohesive, weathered appearance. The dark treatment reinforces the Feather's rugged character while giving it the unmistakable look of a Signature Series model. The matching finish from blade to handle creates a clean visual flow across the compact design.
Despite its substantial capabilities, the Feather weighs just 2.2 ounces. Its lightweight construction makes it easy to incorporate into a gear kit without adding unnecessary bulk or weight. The compact size also makes the knife particularly convenient for users who prefer fixed blades with a smaller overall footprint.
A full-concealment sheath is included, providing a secure way to carry and protect the Feather when it's not in use. The sheath complements the knife's compact design and helps keep the overall package streamlined for storage or transport.
Made in the USA, the Microtech Feather Fixed Blade combines Bastinelli-inspired karambit styling, a double-ringed configuration, compact dimensions, and a matching Distressed Black finish. Its lightweight 2.2-ounce construction and included full-concealment sheath make it a distinctive addition to a Microtech collection or specialized gear setup.
