In 2015, I designed the first F1 Integral Persian Fighter, a full-sized tactical knife inspired by the Persian blade profile, known for its curved, sweeping edge and piercing tip:
This design blended traditional efficiency with modern combat applications, offering both deep penetration and precise slicing capabilities in a single, fluid motion.
Since then, the F1 has evolved. In 2017, I introduced a karambit-style version with a ringed handle for increased retention and control:
In 2022, I experimented with compound grinds, refining the balance between edge strength and cutting performance:
That same year, I developed the progressive chisel grind, which further optimized tip durability and razor-sharp slicing power:
Now, the Bladetricks Mini F1 takes the design in a new direction—smaller, lighter, and more discreet:
By removing the ring (back to its origins) and adopting a three-finger grip, this version is built for ease of carry without sacrificing control. The progressive chisel ground blade ensures maximum cutting efficiency, while the hand-sculpted black G10 handle provides a secure grip in all conditions:
My Bladetricks F1 knives series continues to evolve adapting to real-world needs while staying true to its Persian-inspired tactical roots.
This latest Mini F1K version is now available on my online store.
