They build knives in Robbins, North Carolina with a reputation that came from people who carried their work professionally rather than from marketing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePairing that with Pro-Tech's automatic mechanisms is a sensible match. Spartan knows what a blade needs to do. Pro-Tech has been building the springs and buttons in Placentia since 1999.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBlacked Out on Purpose\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePro-Tech runs the Pallas with pearl buttons, damascus blades, and textured anodized handles. This is the one that does none of that. Black handle, black blade, blasted hardware, black clip.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is the version for someone who wants the Spartan collaboration as a knife to carry rather than a knife to look at.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDLC Over MagnaCut\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMagnaCut already handles corrosion better than most stainless. DLC is a hard carbon coating layered on top, so it adds abrasion resistance rather than just color.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a blade this size that matters. At 3.7 inches the Pallas is the largest of Pro-Tech's button lock autos, and it gets used accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout Pro-Tech\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePro-Tech has been building automatic knives in Placentia, California since 1999, and they make everything in house.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAutomatic Knife Laws\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAutomatic knives are restricted in some places, so check your state and local law before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProudly carrying American\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pro-Tech","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67592478851252,"sku":"SB1103","price":300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0635\/4049\/4516\/files\/IMG_5786.jpg?v=1792450013","url":"https:\/\/lonestarknife.com\/products\/pro-tech-pallas-auto-spartan-blades-collaboration-3-7-dlc-black-magnacut-solid-black-aluminum-made-in-usa-sb1103","provider":"Lone Star Knife \u0026 Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
