Description:

The Medford Praetorian Genesis is the medium-sized version of the most famous pocket knife produced by Medford Knives. Large, robust and rock-solid: the Praetorian is it all. 100% made in the United States, from American materials, by a veteran-run company.

The Praetorian Genesis is a nice EDC pocket knife in the colour black. With its blade length of 8.5 cm, this knife is ideal for easy carrying. When closed, it's only 11.7 cm long, and it weighs 190 g.

The blade is made from S45VN stainless steel with an ultra durable PVD coating. The hollow grind on the blade was applied by hand. This is a unique feature: only few producers apply a hollow grind by hand. With the thumb slot you can easily open the blade. At first this might take some getting used to. When opened a solid framelock keeps the blade in place. Medford pressed the stop-pin in the blade. As a result it symmetrically leans against the handle. This adds strength.

Titanium Back Handle
The handle is made of solid titanium and measures 11.7 cm in length. Titanium is a fantastic high-tech material. It is an excellent choice for the handle of a pocket knife for several reasons: titanium is very strong, lightweight and it is flexible. Moreover, titanium can be machined very precisely and a wide range of different finishes are possible. To be exact, the handle is made of a titanium alloy. Small amounts of aluminium and vanadium are added to pure titanium to make it even more suitable for use as a pocket knife handle.

About Medford Knives
Medford Knives are impressive, sturdy, and above all, unique. The brand was founded by knifemaker Greg Medford, who started Medford Knife & Tool with the aim of creating honest, top-quality knives. He oversees the entire production process in-house. Every component of a Medford folding knife is made in his own factory in Phoenix, Arizona, USA. All blades are hollow-ground by hand by Medford and his skilled craftsmen—something very few manufacturers do. Medford even refers to his production method as 'Hand Tech.'

Each Medford knife is handcrafted by talented knifemakers, meaning individual differences occur, making every knife one of a kind. Medford's lead times are around a year. However, if a knife is listed as in stock on our website, that means we have it in stock; ready to ship. Be quick—new stock can take a long time to arrive!
