The Pro-Strider PT auto is a high quality collaboration that brings the best things from the PT design and Protech's manufacturing to a single knife. This version comes with a stonewashed blade and black anodized aluminum handle.

Brand new directly from Protech Knives, Made in the USA.

Blade: The iconic Strider PT drop point design is made from 154cm stainless steel and is finished in a rugged tumbling for a broken-in appearance. 154cm is an excellent working steel proving a good mix of edge retention, corrosion resistance, toughness, and ease of sharpening. The mid-height saber grind offers a good mix of strength and slicing performance that is inline with the Strider design. The blade deploys smooth and fast via a button operated coil spring mechanism. 

Handle: The classic Strider handle design is retained and made from super tough 7075 aluminum that has a black, military grade hard anodized coating. This handle is secure and comfortable in a variety of grip positions and helps to keep the weight of this knife under 3 oz. The Pro-Strider PT carries securely via a single position, tip-up, right-hand, stainless steel, deep carry pocket clip. The deep carry clip makes carry of this knife very discrete. The black deep carry pocket clip and satin hardware complement the blade and handle accordingly.

154CM: Crucible 154CM is an improved version of 440C with added molybdenum offering improved corrosion resistance and edge retention, as well as a higher level wear resistance.
