Details
Medford's "Big Knife" performance is distilled down into a slim, lightweight, everyday carry package in the Praetorian Slim. With a capable build and size, the Praetorian Slim is similar in size to the Praetorian Genesis. The Slim is scaled down in thickness and weight offering a Medford designed for daily carry in your pocket, pack or purse…even works well in dress slacks. This version has a black PVD S35VN Tanto blade, matching spring, hardware, and clip and a faced and flamed front.
Brand new, directly from Medford Knife & Tool.
Blade: The Tanto blade comes with non-reflective PVD coating and a versatile compound grind. Optimal slicing performance is delivered via the high hollow grind and 1/8" thick CPM-S35VN construction while the flat ground tip provides enhanced tip strength. Dual blade fullers and smooth bearings pivot allow for ambidextrous operation while an exposed portion of the tang can be used as a glass breaker in emergencies with the blade closed.
Handle: Two 1/8" slabs of titanium are joined with PVD coated barrel spacers in a lightweight open back construction for slim carry and a full grip. The front scale is milled with finger groove divots for enhanced traction with a striking faced and flamed tiger-stripe finish. On the back the integral frame lock spring is matte black PVD to match the hardware and blade. Includes an S3 hard case for storage and transport.
Carries via a right-hand titanium pocket clip.
CPM-S35VN: Modified CPM-S30V designed for improved toughness (15-20%) and ease of machining and polishing. Well-balanced for daily use, S35VN has better edge retention and toughness compared to 440C or VG10, with equivalent corrosion resistance.
