    I used to change my EDC knife every 2-6 months, I thought it was my hobby but I just couldn’t find the perfect knife. Since I got my full black Praetorian Genesis G I stopped looking for other knives. It’s my EDC for nearly 2 years now. 🤘

    Love videos like this explaining the design, having the creator in his own words describe what it was like to come up with the concept and in what frame of mind he was puttng himself in to create all the different elements. Great job Greg, love it, and hope to own one of your knives some day!

    I’m a little confused, is it not in the infamous Medford packaging letter that prohibits any prying? And yet Greg says in this vid that you could wedge a door with it?

    Intense design by an intense knife maker. I need the best quality tools that can be had, given what I've seen these appear to be well thought out and purpose built. Ordered my first Medford knife this week.

    @michaelr7254 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    One thing I love about the design is the ergonomics of the breaker. My experience, it rests against your thumb very comfortably in a revere style grip. If you need use it in that way. Conventional grip is comfortable enough but reverse grip, something about it. Small thing, but makes the design that much better.
