Pro-Tech Knives Short Bladed Rockeye SBR – Stonewash CPM-S35VN Drop Point Blade – Black 6061-T6 Aluminum Handle w/ Textured Knurling – Black Tip-Up Pocket Clip & Standard Gray Hardware – Push Button Automatic | Made in USA | Les George Design

Everything that goes into making a Pro-Tech knife happens in California, USA. Originally started by a former middle school teacher, David Wattenberg, the company now produces a huge selection of high-quality US-made knives and is one of the world leaders in the manufacturing of automatic pocket knives. From their Les George-collaboration SBR autos, to awesome Malibu flippers, to perfected camping fixed blades, Pro-Tech has many sharp things to offer for the everyday knife enthusiast. With minimalistic designs, the knives that come out of Artesia, CA all have incredible action, as their Malibu is known as one of the smoothest button lock flippers on the market, and all of their push button autos have a surprisingly snappy action.

All of Pro-Techs main-line knives are built with reliability and function in mind, and they also often collaborate with many of the knife worlds biggest designers to create highly sought-after custom made pocket knives featuring materials such as Damascus steel, “Mother of Pearl” push buttons, ivory and maple burl handles and more. Innovation is at the core of Pro-Tech’s custom shop, and all of their readily available products have some sort of characteristic that makes them unique. If you haven’t had the chance to own a Pro-Tech, now is the time. They often come out with brand new designs and models, so keep an eye out for something from this reliable US-based company that will suit your needs and style.

As mentioned before, the SBR, aka Short Bladed Rockeye, is a the result of a collaboration between Pro-Tech and Marine Corps veteran and famed knife designer Les George. An incredibly EDC-able sub-2.5” blade push button auto, the SBR makes for a great piece to add to your carry rotation. With a snappy-yet-smooth automatic action, the SBR makes for easy deployment and has a reliable lock-up mechanism making it a safe knife to have on you given it does not have a manual safety switch. A finger groove in the handle gives this guy great ergonomics and the tip-up pocket clip is strong enough to keep it secured in your pocket while having an smooth release for easy get-to. Coming in a number of models with different combinations of blade and clip finishes and handle colors, you’re likely to find an SBR that catches your eye.

This model Pro-Tech Les George SBR is awesome. Coming with black knurled inlays in its 6061-T6 aluminum handle, also finished black, this thing has the tactical look and feel and will help you keep a good grip while you’re tackling your cutting tasks. The drop point blade is made of high-grade CPM S35-VN stainless steel, finished with an awesome stonewash. The hardware on this guy is the standard Pro-Tech gray finish while the tip-up pocket clip is black and has a lanyard hole. Need something that looks good and works hard? This is your knife.
