Protech Knives Les George SBR Left Handed DLC S35VN Smooth Black Automatic LG403-LH

The Protech Knives SBR (Short Bladed Rockeye) is a utilitarian, compact, every-day-carry version of the Les George iconic Rockeye model, retaining the classic design in a smaller package. The SBR has the same American innovations as the Rockeye, featuring modern materials, high-tech manufacturing, advanced coil spring mechanism, and quality American production. This left-handed version has a black DLC coated S35VN blade, smooth black hard anodized aluminum handles and matching hardware.

Brand new, direct from Protech Knives.

Blade: The SBR comes with an EDC friendly +2.5 inch blade of American CPM-S35VN stainless steel. It has plenty of cutting edge for utility work while retaining its classic full-bellied lines. A nearly half-length swedge delivers a fine point for piercing while the durable black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating resists wear and is discreet in use. The blade deploys via a button operated coil spring mechanism that is fast and smooth giving you quick access when the seconds count. Proudly engraved on the back is the George logo.

Handle: The ergonomic, hard anodized 6061-T6 aluminum handle provides an ergonomic feel in a variety of grips and deploys smoothly from the pocket for use. The left-hand button lock mechanism provides reliable lockup and smooth operation. Complementing the blade the button and hardware come in matching black.

Carries via a left-hand stainless steel deep carry clip.

CPM-S35VN: Modified CPM-S30V designed for improved toughness (15-20%) and ease of machining and polishing. Well-balanced for daily use, S35VN has better edge retention and toughness compared to 440C or VG10, with equivalent corrosion resistance.
