Features
Slightly larger than typical EDC folders, the Proximal raises everyday carry to the next level of precision and control. Its contoured olive G10 handle fits comfortably in hand, paired with gold-anodized aluminum accents for a clean, modern look. A stonewashed D2 blade delivers reliable edge retention and cutting performance with a versatile drop-point shape. The secure DuraLock mechanism keeps fingers safely clear of the blade path and allows smooth, one-handed operation with the thumb studs. Tuned with KVT ball bearings and weight-relieved liners for balance, the Proximal is built for confident performance and everyday use.Edition Engravable
