The Pro-Tech Avalon is a modern everyday carry folder that combines premium materials, clean design, and practical performance into a knife built for daily use. Created through Pro-Tech's collaboration with Peace Neighbor, the design collective founded by actor Shawn Ashmore, the Avalon reflects a thoughtful approach to ergonomics and functionality while maintaining the precision craftsmanship Pro-Tech is known for.
At the center of the design is a long, versatile MagnaCut stainless steel blade. Widely regarded as one of the finest blade steels available today, MagnaCut delivers an outstanding balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The drop point profile offers exceptional utility, making it equally capable of handling routine cutting tasks, detailed work, and heavier everyday demands. Its full-size dimensions provide impressive cutting reach without sacrificing control or comfort.
The handle is crafted from knurled anodized aluminum, offering a secure grip and lightweight feel that makes the Avalon comfortable to carry from morning to night. The textured surface enhances control in hand while maintaining a sleek, refined appearance. Brushed hardware and matching thumb studs complement the clean lines of the knife, creating a cohesive look that's understated yet distinctive.
Deployment is smooth and intuitive thanks to the thumb stud opener and reliable button lock mechanism. This combination provides quick access to the blade while allowing for safe, controlled operation. A deep-carry pocket clip keeps the knife discreetly tucked away until it's needed, making it an ideal companion for work, travel, or everyday carry.
Proudly built in the USA, the Avalon showcases the user-focused design philosophy of Peace Neighbor paired with Pro-Tech's commitment to precision manufacturing and premium materials.
