Protech Malibu Flipper Blue GPK Exclusive Acid Washed 20CV Modified Wharncliffe Button Lock Folder 5102-BLUE-AW

The Protech Knives Malibu is a manual flipper happy to join the Protech family and sports a fast and fluid, flipper deployment and button lock mechanism. This slim folder exhibits all the precision fit and finish we know and love from Protech automatics delivered in a quick operating manual folder. Great for everyday carry, discreet tactical use or as a larger gentleman’s carry option. This GPKnives Exclusive version comes with an Acid Washed CPM-20CV modified Wharncliffe blade, blasted hardware and blue anodized aluminum handle.

Brand new, directly from Protech Knives.

Blade: The sub-3.5″ CPM-20CV Wharncliffe blade has plenty of cutting power with a fine tip for piercing ability. A high saber grind on the blade delivers a great combination of durability and cutting performance while the rugged, tumbled and Acid Washed finish is discreetly non-reflective and hides wear from use over time.

Handle: Contoured hard anodized 6061-T6 aluminum handles provide optimal comfort in the hand with subtle finger grooves for enhanced traction and a secure grip. The sweeping angle of the handle aligns the blade for better ergonomics, locking the hand in behind the integral flipper tab guard. The smooth, comfortable surface elevates the style, making it a perfect choice for a Gentleman’s tactical folder. An easy-to-use button lock mechanism delivers smooth, reliable operation and rock solid lockup.

Carries via a right-hand stainless steel deep carry clip.

CPM-20CV: CPM-20CV (analog to M390 and CTS-204P) is a premium powder metallurgy (PM) stainless steel with high level edge retention and corrosion resistance. Relatively easy to sharpen, the coarse microstructure gives this steel lower toughness.
