SHOP CASE KNIVESThe ProTech Auto TR-3 Black Handle with Groove Abalone Button is a striking piece of American craftsmanship designed for those who value reliability, precision, and style. This 2024 BladeWest exclusive model delivers everything you expect from ProTech and more.

Finished in sleek black, the handle is both ergonomic and tough, featuring grooves that provide a secure grip even in wet or slippery conditions. The knife's overall length of 8" gives it a balanced feel in the hand, while the 3.7-ounce weight ensures it won’t weigh you down.
