For all the different makes and models of pocket knives out there, it’s still the humble utility knife we turn to most often around the shop. So it seems fitting that the often utilitarian blade received a bit of a makeover. Meet the Praetor Pocketblade, a better-looking, reimagined utility knife. Instead of the large, unattractive handle with thumb slider you are used to, the Praetor boasts a carbon fiber frame that locks the blade in place, which means less movement and less danger to your digits. It’s also designed for comfortable use, which, if you use a utility knife often, you know is a refreshing change. If you’re worried about the blade going dull, know you can replace it when time comes and continue to use your sharp tool. Each comes with a sheath that boasts a unique magnetic mechanism to holster the blade safely in place. You can back Praetor on Kickstarter right now.
