Pro-Tech TR-3 Tactical Response 3 Auto 3.5" – Black Fish Scale Handle, 154CM Stonewash Clip Point – Made in USA (TR-3 X1 SW)

Trusted by military and law enforcement. Black handle. Stonewash blade. Auto action.

The Tactical Response 3 is one of Pro-Tech's most enduring designs and one of the most trusted automatic folders in law enforcement and military circles. This X1 SW version pairs the TR-3 platform with a black aluminum handle featuring Pro-Tech's 'Fish Scale' engraved frame, a stonewash blade, and blasted hardware throughout for a cohesive, hard-use aesthetic. The 3.5" clip point blade fires fast from Pro-Tech's coil spring automatic mechanism. Side-opening out-the-side deployment, button lock lockup, and a slender profile that disappears in the pocket. Made in Placentia, California.

The clip point profile gives the TR-3 a penetrating tip geometry paired with a long useful cutting edge, and the stonewash finish handles field use without showing it. The Fish Scale milling on the black aluminum frame adds both grip texture and visual distinction to one of Pro-Tech's most proven platforms.

Note from Lone Star Knife & Supply: The TR-3 in black with Fish Scale milling is one of the more distinctive versions of a platform that has been around long enough to prove itself. The auto action is fast and authoritative in the way Pro-Tech autos have always been. If you want a coil spring side-opener with real carry presence, this is the TR-3 to own.

Why This TR-3 X1 SW Black Stands Out

• 3.5" Clip Point Blade, fast coil spring automatic deployment
• Stonewash Blade Finish, practical and wear-resistant
• Black Aluminum Handle with Fish Scale Engraved Frame, one of the most appealing TR-3 colorways
• Blasted Hardware Throughout for a cohesive understated finish
• Side-Opening Out-the-Side (OTS) Automatic Action
• Button Lock with push-button firing
• Made in the USA (Placentia, California)

Why You'll Want It

The TR-3 has earned its place in the automatic knife market over decades of military and law enforcement use. The SW Black X1 version brings the platform's proven reliability to a configuration that looks as good as it performs. California-made coil spring action in black. Hard to argue with that.
