Pro-Tech Scapegoat Compact Auto - BST26 Green / DLC MagnaMax

Blade Show Texas exclusive. Solid green aluminum. DLC black MagnaMax. All black hardware throughout.

The Scapegoat Compact is the second collaboration between Pro-Tech and Ramon Chavez of Chaves Knives, and it distills everything that made the original Scapegoat work into a tighter, more pocketable package. Chavez brought the design language and Pro-Tech executed it without compromise. This Blade Show Texas 2026 version runs a solid green aluminum handle with a DLC black MagnaMax blade, black lip pearl button, black hardware, and a black deep carry clip. Every detail is matched and nothing is fighting for attention.

Compact and Capable The Scapegoat Compact was designed to carry like a smaller knife but work like a full-sized one.

• 3.15" clip point blade handles real daily cutting tasks
• 7.15" overall in a 4" closed package
• 2.85 oz disappears completely in a pocket

It is one of the most carry-friendly autos Pro-Tech makes without giving up blade length that actually matters.

All Black on Green The color combination on this version is intentional and it works.

• Solid green 6061 aluminum handle
• DLC black MagnaMax blade for a low-glare, low-maintenance finish
• Black lip pearl button adds contrast without breaking the all-black hardware theme
• Black hardware and black deep carry clip throughout

Everything below the button is blacked out. The button is the only thing that breaks the scheme and it does so cleanly.

MagnaMax Blade Steel MagnaMax is Pro-Tech's proprietary blade steel developed to push wear resistance further than standard MagnaCut while maintaining the corrosion resistance and toughness needed for daily carry.

• Exceptional edge retention under real use conditions
• Strong corrosion resistance
• DLC coating adds an additional layer of protection and keeps the blade looking clean over time

This is not a novelty steel. It was developed specifically for knives like this one.

Ramon Chavez Design Ramon Chavez runs Chaves Knives and is one of the more respected designers working in production knives today. The Scapegoat Compact carries his design language throughout.

• Clip point geometry built for aggressive cutting and piercing capability
• Clean lines with no excess material
• Proportions that make sense for daily carry at this size

Pro-Tech Push Button Automatic Pro-Tech's push button automatic fires the Scapegoat Compact with the same authority you expect from a larger knife.

• Single push deploys the blade with confidence
• Button/plunge lock holds solid under load
• Short deep carry clip keeps it discreet and accessible

Blade Show Texas 2026 Solid green with DLC black MagnaMax and all black hardware is not a standard production combination. This version was made for the show and came back with us. It will not be reproduced in this configuration.

Made in the USA Pro-Tech has been manufacturing knives in Placentia, California since 1994. Every Scapegoat Compact is machined and assembled in-house. The tolerances and action reflect that.

Why This One Stands Out The Scapegoat Compact is already one of the most interesting compact autos in the Pro-Tech lineup. The Blade Show Texas version adds a color configuration that puts Chavez's design language in a combination you are not going to find anywhere else.

Light, fast, and built for the show. That combination does not sit long.
