SHOP CASE KNIVESThe SRM Medal 259L-AG Green & Rosewood brings refined style and modern performance together in a sleek everyday carry folding knife that’s built to work as good as it looks. With premium materials, smooth action, and thoughtful design details, this knife is ready to become a trusted part of your daily rotation.
Measuring 7.59 inches overall and 4.41 inches closed, the Medal offers a balanced, easy-to-carry profile that fits comfortably in your pocket and your hand. Weighing just 75 grams, or 2.64 ounces, it’s light enough for all-day carry without sacrificing the solid feel you want in a dependable EDC folding knife.
At the heart of the Medal is a 3.18-inch reverse tanto blade crafted from 14C28N steel, hardened to HRC 57–59. Known for its excellent balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness, 14C28N is a proven performer for everyday tasks. The reverse tanto blade shape adds versatility, offering a strong, reinforced tip for precision work along with a straight cutting edge that excels at slicing. With a slim 0.1-inch blade thickness, it cuts cleanly and efficiently, while the black finish adds a modern, low-profile look and extra protection against wear.
The thumb stud opener allows for quick, controlled manual deployment, and the blade rides on a ceramic ball bearing pivot assembly. The result is impressively smooth, fluid action that feels crisp and responsive every time you open it. It’s the kind of refined operation you appreciate more with each use.
Security comes from SRM’s Ambi Lock, a crossbar-style locking mechanism designed for strength and ambidextrous convenience. It provides solid lockup and easy one-handed operation from either side, making this everyday carry folding knife comfortable and practical for both left- and right-handed users. You’ll feel confident knowing the blade is securely locked in place during demanding cutting tasks.
Visually, the SRM Medal 259L-AG stands out with its striking combination of materials. The rosewood handle scales bring warmth, character, and a classic touch, while the green anodized 6063 aluminum bolster adds a contemporary accent and structural strength. This blend of natural wood and precision-machined aluminum gives the knife a distinctive look that feels both traditional and modern. The ergonomic handle shape ensures a comfortable, secure grip for extended use.
A deep-carry, ambidextrous tip-up pocket clip keeps the Medal discreetly and securely in your pocket. Designed for left or right carry, it allows you to customize the knife to your preference while maintaining a low-profile appearance.
The SRM Medal 259L-AG Green & Rosewood is a perfect example of how an EDC folding knife can combine craftsmanship, performance, and everyday practicality. From its 14C28N reverse tanto blade and ceramic bearing pivot to its ambidextrous crossbar lock and elegant wood-and-aluminum handle, every detail is designed with purpose.
