There aren't many of them on the market, high-quality stilettos made of decent materials. At least not any that don't cost a fortune. However, if you look among custom manufacturers, there are, of course, many available. But for us mere mortals, it is harder to find alternatives. But here is one of them called Cross from FKW - Fort Knife Works.
FKW Cross
Whether it is a limited edition or not, I will leave it unsaid, but they are numbered, and this happens to be 1030/1200.
The material in the handle sides is aluminium, and the knife can be obtained with or without bolsters. Cross has a total weight of 132 g. Quite a lot for such a slim knife, but the frame is sturdy and made of steel. On the back, there is a clip that cannot be moved, and which is unusual; it is a top-mounted deep ride clip. This is probably mostly due to the handle shape. However, it does have the advantage that the ergonomics are good.

| A stiletto with a blade in M390 is not common. |
On the other side, you will find a slide safety and the cross-shaped activation button that gave the knife its name. The blade is driven by a coil spring and is medium-fast. Not one of the fastest, but in return, there is absolutely no play in the blade. The lock is given by the construction, a button/plunge lock.
The blade is also just over nine centimetres long, 91 mm and made of steel as fine as M390. The total length of the knife is 21.5 cm.
Overall, a nice and very well-built knife for under a hundred Euros.
