Katla, designed by Jesper Voxnaes, is a liner lock folding knife, which brings back the Tanto profile blade with a bevel that enhances the excellent cutting qualities.

The rotation mechanism is provided by thrust bearings, and it can be opened with either the double thumb stud or the very fast flipper.

The detail that characterizes the Katla is the 3D processing of the handle at both ends of the bolster, which reinterprets in a modern way, the inlays of the classic Viper models.

The Medford Micro Praetorian T is the smallest of Medford's knife line, but no less capable. Although in Ancient Rome they were primarily charged with the defense of the Emperor, the Praetorian Guard was entrusted with a wide range of responsibilities, from fighting fires to protecting imperial interests. The Medford Micro Praetorian T, like its modern cousins and its ancient namesake, can be used for a myriad of tasks, from self-defense to everyday cutting tasks. With its titanium handle and wide, super-strong blade, the Micro Praetorian T is an EDC option that will last a lifetime without taking up too much pocket space.

Biographical Note:
Bud Nealy is universally recognized as one of the best knifemakers in the world. He is also known as the inventor of the MCS (Multi Concealment Sheath) system that allows the knife to be placed securely in any type of position. And it is because of these two requirements that every day hundreds of his MCS systems are used by police officers, undercover agents, S.W.A.T. and R.A.I.D. members, U.S. embassy guards, Bodyguards and Air Rangers.

Under the brand name Rockstead, from Ishida Co. in Sakai, Japan, the best industrial knives currently in production are currently marketed: created by Katsumi Kitano, who has been making quality knives for over 30 years to the extent that he has been awarded the highest distinction among artisan knife makers in Japan, they prove to be exceptional both in cutting ability, penetration and edge-holding and in innovation in the materials used and construction techniques.
