Designed by Greg Medford and proudly made in the USA, this folding knife is built to take on hard use while making a bold impression in any collection.
The 3.75-inch tanto blade is made from S35VN stainless steel, prized for its exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and overall toughness. Featuring a dramatic Vulcan (flamed) finish, each blade is uniquely patterned through a high-heat treatment process that gives it a raw, utilitarian look. The tanto blade profile offers excellent piercing strength and versatile slicing capability.
The handle is crafted from sculpted titanium, combining strength, durability, and ergonomic grip in a lightweight frame. Flamed titanium hardware and a matching titanium pocket clip add custom styling and secure, reliable carry. The integrated blade flipper enables smooth one-handed deployment, while the framelock mechanism ensures solid lockup for confident, safe use.
With a closed length of 4.9 inches and a weight of 9.3 ounces, the Praetorian T balances a robust build with everyday portability. Whether you're a dedicated collector, outdoor professional, or tactical user, this knife delivers performance, reliability, and standout aesthetics.
