Artisan Cutlery Proponent - Dirk Pinkerton Design
The Proponent embodies one word: uncompromising. This substantial knife is a collaboration between Artisan Cutlery and long-time designer Dirk Pinkerton. Carries on Dirk's fondness for chunky Wharncliffe blades but takes it further with smooth ceramic bearings, a large flipper tab, and beefy frame construction. Includes a hardened steel pin that screws into the handle frame to lock the knife in an open or closed position for extra assurance. By far the most overbuilt knife in the Artisan line, with results that deliver on the uncompromising promise. Built for users who want substantial construction with Dirk Pinkerton's proven Wharncliffe geometry and innovative locking pin feature that provides security beyond the standard lock mechanism.
