The CRKT 7060 Persian combines traditional Persian blade geometry with modern EDC functionality, delivering a versatile folding knife that excels in precision cutting tasks. This tactical folder features a distinctive trailing point blade profile that maximizes cutting surface while maintaining excellent tip control for detailed work.
What Makes This Different
The Persian's trailing point design sets it apart from standard drop point folders by providing an extended cutting edge that curves upward to the tip. This geometry creates superior slicing performance compared to conventional blade shapes, particularly for skinning, food preparation, and utility tasks. The D2 tool steel construction offers exceptional edge retention that outperforms standard stainless steels by 30-40% in cutting tests.
Key Features
- 3.44" D2 tool steel blade with superior edge retention and wear resistance

Field performance demonstrates the Persian's versatility across hunting, outdoor work, and everyday cutting tasks. The trailing point excels at breaking down game, processing rope and cordage, and detailed cutting where blade control matters. D2 steel maintains a sharp edge through extended use while the textured GRN handle provides reliable grip in wet or cold conditions.
