Description

The Medford Knife & Tool Primus represents one of Greg Medford’s most advanced folding knife designs, combining premium American materials, precision machining, and exceptional craftsmanship into a heavy-duty everyday carry folder. Designed, manufactured, and hand-finished entirely in Phoenix, Arizona, the Primus showcases Medford’s commitment to producing high-performance knives capable of enduring years of demanding use. Every stage of production—from machining raw titanium and blade steel to heat treatment, grinding, finishing, and final assembly—is completed under one roof, ensuring strict quality control and exceptional consistency. Built around a robust 3.85-inch CPM 3V tool steel blade, the Primus is engineered for users who demand outstanding toughness and edge durability. CPM 3V is widely recognized for its superior impact resistance and excellent wear characteristics, making it an outstanding choice for hard-use cutting applications where reliability matters most. The blade measures an impressive 0.260 inches thick, providing tremendous strength while maintaining cutting performance for everyday utility, outdoor tasks, and demanding work environments. A durable tumbled finish helps minimize the appearance of scratches from regular use while providing a refined, working-knife appearance. The handle is machined from 6AL-4V titanium, delivering exceptional strength while resisting corrosion and reducing unnecessary maintenance. Its distinctive multi-faceted profile provides a secure, comfortable grip that fills the hand with confidence during prolonged use. The titanium frame lock offers dependable lockup with smooth deployment, making the Primus a reliable companion whether used for everyday cutting chores or more demanding applications. One of the Primus’ most distinctive features is its newly designed titanium pocket clip, which complements the knife’s angular handle profile while incorporating Greg Medford’s signature as a subtle design element. The knife also includes an all-titanium backstrap equipped with an integrated glass breaker and lanyard hole, adding emergency utility without compromising the knife’s balanced feel. At approximately 9.52 ounces, the Primus delivers the substantial in-hand presence that has become synonymous with Medford folders, appealing to enthusiasts who appreciate robust construction over lightweight minimalism. Every Primus reflects the company’s philosophy of uncompromising American manufacturing, premium materials, and meticulous craftsmanship. Whether carried daily, added to a premium knife collection, or relied upon as a dependable hard-use folding knife, the Primus delivers the rugged performance, precision engineering, and distinctive design that have made Medford Knife & Tool one of the most respected names in American knife making.
