Protech Tactical Response 3 Military Fish Scale Black DLC 154CM Drop Point Automatic Knife (3.50") TR-3-X1-M

The Protech TR-3 Military Fish Scale fires hard the instant you hit the button, throwing a black DLC 154CM drop point open from a slim aluminum handle. Blasted steel hardware and a slide safety round out the duty build.

• 154CM Black DLC Drop Point Blade - This drop point runs 154CM stainless, a steel with solid corrosion resistance and edge retention that comes back fast on a stone. A high saber grind slices clean while the top swedge sharpens the tip for piercing, all under a matte black DLC coat that fights wear and glare.
• Coil-Spring Automatic Action - Press the recessed button and the blade fires hard and fast for confident one-handed opening. A sliding safety snaps into place with a firm, positive detent to keep the auto secured in the pocket. Lockup lands dead solid with zero blade play.
• Fish Scale Milled Aluminum Handle - Hard anodized 6061-T6 aluminum keeps the frame tough and light, milled with a fish scale pattern on both sides. You can feel the texture under your fingers, though it reads more as clean styling than added grip. Blasted stainless hardware adds a contrasting flash.
• Tip-Up Pocket Clip Carry - A right-hand, tip-up clip keeps the knife riding high and ready in a front pocket. The slim aluminum frame carries easy day to day, and a lanyard hole at the butt takes a fob or cord for a quick pull.

The Protech TR-3

The Tactical Response 3 is one of the automatics Protech is best known for, built for anyone who needs a blade open in a hurry. Protech has run its coil-spring button-lock action since 1999, and the TR-3 wraps that fast, hard-firing mechanism in a slim aluminum frame that slips into a pocket without bulk. Law enforcement and military carriers have leaned on the platform for years, drawn to a full-size cutter that stays flat and light. It is the kind of knife you can fire open one-handed when the other hand is already full.
