Pro-Tech knives has been getting solid everyday carry knives into the hands of the consumer since 1999. With a large selection of tools featuring only the highest-grade materials on the knife market, Pro-Tech is sure to have something for everyone. Offering mostly side-opening automatics, the pieces coming out of the California-based company all have incredibly smooth and rapid opening action. Pro-Tech’s main line knives are all incredible pieces, spanning a wide range of price points; and they also deal in collaborations with many of the worlds most well-known knife designers, often having custom pieces available from people such as Mike “Whiskers”, Les George, and more. A majority of Pro-Tech knives are produced from a steel bar or billet all the way to finished and polished blade in the same factory in California. With a high number of small batch knives and collaborations with big name designers, Pro-Tech boasts many fine-tuned and collectible pieces, as well as a number of more affordable production pieces. Make sure to keep up with Pro-Tech’s ever evolving selection of knives, as new and amazing pieces are introduced often, and they are sure to have something that fits your style and needs.
The Pro-Tech BR-1.7 “Whisker” is a neat little bolster release auto with a sneaky opening mechanism. While the texturized bolster at the top of the handle looks like it is solidly attached to the rest of the handle, when it is pushed towards the spine of the handle, it releases a razor sharp 154CM drop point blade with incredibly snappy action. Many will struggle to figure this knife out their first go around, but once you do, you’ll never want to stop opening and closing it. For fans of a “fidget” knife, who need something that also doubles as an ultra-reliable rapid-action EDC pocket knife, the new BR-1.7 is definitely for you. When we first got these in, I (Nate) had some trouble opening it up, but now it’s one of my favorite non-traditional automatic knives. Featuring Pro-Tech’s signature snappy action and reliable lock-up, this Mike “Whiskers” design is just an awesome piece. A black 6061-T6 handle accompanied by a black tip-up pocket clip and some stainless screws, this thing looks gorgeous while closed. Opening up to 7.25” with a black DLC coated drop point blade, the BR-1.7 has got it all. For something different to add to your automatic knife collection, look towards the Pro-Tech Whisker knives.
