Pro-Tech Tactical Response 3 - BST26 Grooved Green / Stonewash 154-CM

Blade Show Texas exclusive. Grooved green aluminum. Stonewash 154-CM. Mosaic pin button.

The TR-3 is one of the most trusted automatic knives in the Pro-Tech lineup and has been for decades. Law enforcement and military professionals have carried it for a reason: it fires hard, locks up solid, and disappears in a pocket. This Blade Show Texas 2026 version puts a grooved green aluminum handle on the platform with a stonewash 154-CM blade, mosaic pin button, satin hardware, and a polished clip. It is the same knife that has earned that track record, in a configuration you are not going to find on a shelf.

A Platform With a Track Record The TR-3 has been carried by law enforcement and military professionals around the world for years. That reputation was not built on marketing.

• Slender handle that sits flat in the pocket
• 3.5" blade that handles real daily use
• Push button automatic that fires with authority every time

It is one of the most proven automatic platforms in American production knife history.

Grooved Green Handle The grooved texture on the aluminum gives you real purchase without adding bulk.

• Green anodized 6061 aluminum
• Machined grooves provide grip in any condition
• Polished clip finishes the contrast between the matte handle and the hardware

Green and stonewash work together here. The mosaic pin button is the detail that makes this version memorable.

154-CM Stonewash Blade 154-CM is the steel that built Pro-Tech's reputation before MagnaCut existed, and it still holds up.

• Solid edge retention for daily carry tasks
• Good corrosion resistance in real conditions
• Stonewash finish hides wear and keeps the blade looking clean

It is not the newest steel on the market. It is a steel that works and has worked for a long time.

Pro-Tech Push Button Automatic The TR-3 fires with a recessed push button that keeps the button protected and the deployment deliberate.

• Hard, snappy deployment every time
• Button lock keeps the blade locked open under pressure
• Same platform trusted by professionals who depend on their tools

Blade Show Texas 2026 Grooved green with a stonewash 154-CM blade and mosaic pin button is not a standard production combination. This version was made for the show and came back with us. When it is gone, it is gone.

Made in the USA Pro-Tech has been building knives in Placentia, California since 1994. Every TR-3 is machined and assembled in-house. The tolerances are tight and the action shows it.

Why This One Stands Out The TR-3 is already one of the best automatic knives you can buy at this price point. The Blade Show Texas version adds a color and button combination that gives a proven platform a reason to stand out in a tray.

Trusted knife. Show exclusive configuration. That combination does not sit long.
