This Custom Newport automatic features a titanium handle with an orange peel finish and a carbon fiber inlay. The blade is made from S35VN steel with a satin finish. Item includes a custom 3D machined titanium pocket clip and the firing button is outfitted with a black lip pearl insert.
The Newport is a larger version of Pro-Tech's Sprint knife. It utilizes the same stellar design cues, but the larger platform will appeal to folks with larger hands and those who prefer more to hold on to.
This knife is really very classy, and very beautifully masculine. This is my first Protech to own, and the quality and attention to details is phonomenal! The orange peel finish plays with the light in a great way, the carbon fiber inlay is a matte finish but reflects light with the perfect amount of sparkle? (For lack of other words).The underside of the handle scales has a jeweled finish! That’s the kind of details that makes a knife worth paying $515! Well done Protech! The pocket clip! I love this utilitarian deep carry pocket clip, and the milled line pattern just gives it that extra pop of class (the clip is actually one of my favorite features because it’s subtle but done so well). I also love the size of the Newport, it’s the perfect “small” knife in my opinion. I am very pleased to add this knife to my collection, and look forward to carry this knife especially in a more dressy environment. This is my new dress up suite knife without a doubt. Look forward to aging with it and passing this on to one of my kids later in life. If interested in a high quality, American made, classy carry piece I really think you should look no further! Thank you Blade HQ as always! Your service rocks, and you will always be on my top list to purchase a quality knife!
