Automatic Knives Descriptions
Gerber Propel
Durable, fast to deploy, and rugged. This knife is a one-hand opening workhorse with a S30v tanto blade that can cut through anything; the black oxide coating and G-10 handle minimize slip to keep you safe in critical conditions.
Pro-Tech TR-3
This Integrity Folder features a beautiful Chad Nichols Graduated Ladder Damascus blade. The thumb stud has an Abalone insert that is simply fantastic. The titanium handle has a sturdy frame-lock that is bead blast finished. Includes a tip-up pocket clip for carry. The TR-3 Integrity Folder is a well made knife with great fit and finish, just what you expect from Pro-Tech Knives.
