The Pro-Tech Brend Automatic 2026 Blade Show Atlanta Exclusive brings together legendary knife design, premium materials, and Pro-Tech's renowned automatic action in a sleek, highly collectible package. Designed by acclaimed knifemaker Walter Brend, this special-edition automatic showcases the clean lines and practical performance that have made the Brend design a favorite among knife enthusiasts for decades.
At the forefront is a 3.125-inch drop point blade crafted from dependable 154CM stainless steel. Known for its excellent balance of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance, 154CM remains a trusted choice for hardworking everyday carry knives. The satin finish highlights the blade's clean grind lines while providing a timeless appearance that complements the knife's refined design.
The handle is constructed from lightweight black anodized aircraft-grade aluminum, delivering impressive strength without adding unnecessary bulk. Its slim profile slips comfortably into the pocket and carries easily throughout the day, making it an excellent choice for users who appreciate a capable automatic that won't weigh them down. A genuine abalone inlaid push button provides a striking visual accent, adding a touch of elegance and individuality to this exclusive release.
Fast push-button deployment delivers the crisp, reliable action Pro-Tech is known for, while the button lock secures the blade firmly during use. A deep-carry pocket clip keeps the knife readily accessible, and a discreet lanyard hole hidden at the butt end offers additional carry options without disrupting the streamlined profile.
Measuring 4.2 inches closed and weighing just 2.89 ounces, the Brend Automatic offers an outstanding blend of portability, performance, and collectible appeal. Proudly made in the USA, it reflects Pro-Tech's commitment to precision manufacturing and American craftsmanship.
