Medford Praetorian T Tanto PVD 3V Faced Flame Bronze Titanium Frame Lock Folder

Praetorian Guards were elite men chosen from the Legions of Rome to serve as personal protectors of the Emperor. The MKT Praetorian T is an elite tool befitting of the name that will guard you well. Truly built like a tank, the Praetorian T pairs robust construction with premium materials to deliver unsurpassed reliability you will be able to pass down through the generations. This version has a black PVD coated, CPM-3V Tanto Point blade, faced flame anodized bronze front with matching clip and bead blasted bronze anodized lock side.

Brand new, directly from Medford Knife & Tool, USA.

Blade: The utilitarian, Tanto point blade is made from ultra-tough, 3/16" thick CPM-3V that has been black PVD coated and ground with a mid-height hollow grind delivering a powerful slicing performance with piercing Tanto point and tank-like durability. With over 3.5 inches of razor sharp cutting edge, the Praetorian is more than capable of handling any task you are presented with. The blade deploys smoothly on the phosphor bronze washer pivot and opens ambidextrously via the large blade fuller milling. Aggressive jimping on the spine transitions into the handle and offers unparalleled traction in the hand.

Handle: Two beefy, 1/8" slabs of anodized titanium and a PVD coated D2 back spacer make up the handle. The front scale is milled with finger groove divots for enhanced traction while the back scale forms the simple, robust, integral frame lock mechanism. The construction is completed with PVD coated titanium hardware and partial back spacer with exposed striker pommel. Both slabs and blade are marked with an individual serial number.

Carries via a right hand, tip-up only 3D Machined Titanium pocket clip. Includes an S3 Hard Case for transportation and storage.

CPM-3V: is a high carbon alloy steel that extremely tough and has enough chromium to have some corrosion resistance. However, care is required to prevent corrosion. The edge can be ground thin as it is tough enough to support a fine edge. 3V delivers the highest level of toughness while maintaining good edge retention.
