The tumbled blade finish enhances the rugged appearance while helping to conceal everyday wear, making it an excellent choice for users who appreciate both hard-use capability and refined craftsmanship. The Primus was engineered as one of Greg Medford’s flagship folding knife designs, intentionally utilizing complex machining processes that prioritize strength, precision, and aesthetics over manufacturing efficiency. Every angle, chamfer, and contour has been carefully machined to create a folding knife that feels substantial in the hand while maintaining excellent ergonomics. The bold profile and thick blade stock provide outstanding confidence during demanding cutting tasks, whether in the field, workshop, or everyday carry rotation. This configuration features eye-catching OS Bronze titanium handle scales that provide exceptional strength while resisting corrosion and wear. Complementing the warm bronze finish is a complete set of flamed titanium hardware, including the backstrap, glass breaker, and right-hand tip-up pocket clip. The flamed anodization creates unique shades of blue, purple, and bronze that vary with lighting, ensuring every knife possesses its own distinctive appearance. The CPM-3V tanto blade measures 3.85 inches long and features an impressive 0.260-inch blade thickness, delivering tremendous lateral strength and outstanding durability. CPM-3V is widely respected for its exceptional impact resistance and edge toughness, making it one of the finest choices for demanding utility applications. The tanto blade geometry excels at piercing tasks while providing a strong primary edge suitable for heavy cutting and everyday work. A titanium frame lock provides dependable lockup with exceptional rigidity during use. The precision-machined titanium frame offers smooth deployment and secure blade retention, while the sturdy pocket clip allows convenient right-hand, tip-up carry. At 9.52 ounces, the Primus offers a reassuringly solid feel that reflects its heavy-duty construction and premium materials.
