Medford Knives are amazing edged items. They are monster large, made of the best steels and expertly crafted entirely in the USA. These are the tools you need to get real work done - be that work in the combat arena, law enforcement, in your workshop or yard. They are a tactical knife company based in Arizona and the construction quality is really second to none. Look to Medford Knives for innovative combat knives and every day carry pocket knives that are world-class in materials and workmanship and will serve for generations.
The "187" series of folders, named for the 3/16" stock used throughout, is Medford's lower price point offering for those knife guys who want more than one MKT folder. If you are saving for the penultimate custom MKT blade or holding out for the Praetorian Ti, then we have something to tie you over. For the rest of us (who want to remain married), this series gets you a handmade American knife with rugged uniqueness that is truly American.
The 187 "F" is unique, awesome, and just plain fun. Guys who like "flippers" will love the speedy one-hand deployment of this blade. Guys who scoff at "such silliness" will get seduced by this little beast of a tool and how it feels. The deployment trigger harkens back to a graceful time in America when function was coupled with style to create the iconic tools of force and beauty that defined our growing nation. Once you get over the looks, you will realize this is a very well-designed mechanism and it rockets the blade out using the push-button deployment method.
