The REATE PL-7-4 is where cutting-edge design meets everyday utility, offering a sleek, high-performance folding knife that doesn’t just perform—it turns heads. From its bold handle to its expertly finished blade, this manual folder is built for those who want standout gear without sacrificing functionality or reliability.
At the core of the PL-7-4 is a 3.5-inch drop point blade crafted from Nitro-V stainless steel, a modern alloy known for its high toughness, corrosion resistance, and edge retention. Whether you’re slicing, scoring, or tackling heavier-duty work, this blade handles it with confidence and control. The belt satin finish brings a clean, refined look to the blade’s sleek profile, complementing its rugged performance with a touch of polish. At .15 inches thick, the blade offers the right blend of strength and precision, ready to handle the rigors of everyday use with ease.
Deployment is fast and fluid thanks to the blade flipper, and the pivot lock ensures secure, consistent lockup once open. REATE’s reputation for smooth, tight action shines through here—every opening and closing is crisp and satisfying, and the mechanism is built to perform over thousands of uses without hesitation. Whether you're working in the shop or out in the field, this knife is ready to move at your pace.
One of the most eye-catching features of the PL-7-4 is its yellow Ultem handle. Ultem, a high-strength thermoplastic, offers outstanding durability, chemical resistance, and lightweight handling. Its translucent amber hue gives this knife a futuristic, high-visibility aesthetic that stands out in any pocket, pack, or collection. Beyond its bold looks, the handle is shaped for ergonomic comfort and solid grip, making it just as practical as it is striking.
Measuring 4.5 inches closed and 8 inches overall, the PL-7-4 is sized perfectly for pocket carry and full-use performance. It weighs just 4.5 ounces, making it light enough to disappear in the pocket while still delivering full-sized control when in hand. A blue titanium tip-up pocket clip not only secures the knife discreetly and comfortably, but also adds a pop of contrast that complements the Ultem handle with modern flair. The integrated lanyard hole rounds out the carry options, giving you additional flexibility and room for personal customization.
The REATE PL-7-4 offers a seamless balance of precision machining, standout design, and everyday reliability. From the satin-finished Nitro-V blade to the futuristic Ultem handle and premium hardware, every detail has been carefully considered and flawlessly executed. It’s a knife that performs where it counts and still brings something unique to the table.
