I had a Magnacut TR-3 fish scale and regret selling it. I did just order a TR-5 all black (except for safety and backspacer). Smooth, no fish scale, which doesn't matter to me. Looking forward to PT's packaging!

One thing that most people might not realize is that often times military and law enforcement agencies often have a requirement that firearms or automatic knives have some type of safety mechanism in order to be approved for on-duty use. This is the most likely reason for it being there at all.

On the safety: I carry in my back pocket next to my wallet and have not had any issues with it deploying in the pocket, it sits on the outside edge of my pocket so I don't really sit on it but if it was gonna go off, it would be more likely there vs in the side pocket. Safety isn't intrusive though at all and is satisfyingly tactile. Pro-Tip: The little ball that sits underneath the plat for the safety to provide the click rides on a spring, I didn't see it and blew it out with compressed air. I found it after I walked away for a bit when I put it back together and the ball just dropped into the cavity and I realized I fucked up haha. Besides that, easy to disassemble, just open it of course to relieve the spring tension before you take it apart.

I'm a first responder and I carry 3 knives with me, a Hinderer XM-18 3.5, a Protech Godson, and a Chris Reeve Large Inkosi LH. I've used the Hinderer more times than I could count, the Godson was only used when I need to emergency intubate a patient on the trachea due to a vehicular accident and his jaw was mangled.

I own a godson; before i start this i have ABSOLUTELY no idea what you encounter on a day to day cycle. I was talking with protech for months; i had a godson in my pocket when i went through an E-3 Enhanced (pretty much a E4 tornado.). Anyhow; i beat the absolute SHIT out of it that day; I contacted them for warranty and they said they’re surprised with how many people find a utilitarian use out of them. They claimed the Stiletto was really designed for self defense. I love my TR-5 so i highly recommend it; even on the lanyard area; they have a hardened round steel breaker so you can use it in a hammer motion instead of the traditional way and risk putting your wrist through the window. I hope i didn’t come off as an asshole; if i did i’m sorry!! Thank you for all you do and stay safe!

@@cameronbottoms1118 the tr-5's pommel can be used as a glass breaker. we tried it. it works. i do have a microtech dirac with me that i use also as a glass breaker. to give you an idea, i live near an accident-prone road and 8 times out of 10, i always wake up from screeching or colliding vehicles (i live a good 50 feet from the main road) and as a nurse (RN/USRN, worked in AMC NY ER and EMT years ago), i always end up being the first on the scene. 😅 as soon as this pandemic sh*tstorm ends, i'll pursue being a physician. 😁

So, not that this applys to me, being a ny'er.. but I always have my knifes set up for right hand carry, but I carry in my front left pocket. I've always carried this way, since I was in the scout's. My phone, and pen go into the right pocket, and adding a knife is just too much clutter. The safety is definitely a welcome feature from my weirdo carry perspective. Now if only I could buy and carry this in NY....

Companies like protech who are based in California are limited to a small number of employees in the warehouse at one time due to pointless covid protocols. This limits the amount of knives they can produce, limiting the stock on the market.

The safety button is made for extremely neglectful people that do not put their cutting tools away properly. I’m sure you have heard about children that have picked up a firearm and discharged it. It’s not the child’s fault. I cannot tell you how often I have seen knives setting on end, tables and coffee tables right at I level for children. I think the safety is for idiots but necessary because there are idiots.
