Artisan Proponent Framelock 4″ S35VN Gray Titanium Folding Knife

The Proponent is a framelock folder with a 4-inch S35VN stainless blade finished in satin and sand polish, paired with a gray titanium handle. At 5 inches closed, it carries easily and deploys via thumb stud to the satin-polished modified tanto edge. The framelock is backed by a ceramic ball bearing for smooth, consistent action. An extended tang runs through the handle for added structural support, while a lanyard hole and deep-carry pocket clip let you configure it to your preference. Dirk Pinkerton’s design includes a metal tin and a black nylon zippered storage case.
