Pro-Tech Malibu - Revolutionary Manual Flipper
The knife that took the world by storm in 2020 and hasn't slowed down since. Designed by Matthew Lerch, the Pro-Tech Malibu redefined what a manual flipper should be—combining lightning-fast deployment with buttery-smooth button lock action that rivals any knife at any price point. This isn't just another EDC folder; it's the reason button locks became the hottest trend in modern knife design, setting a standard that others still struggle to match.
The Perfect EDC Formula
At just 2.99 ounces with a 3.25-inch blade, the Malibu hits the sweet spot for everyday carry. The reverse tanto blade shape delivers exceptional cutting performance with a strong tip that won't round off during heavy use. Available in premium steels including CPM-20CV and MagnaCut, this blade stays sharp longer and cuts cleaner than knives twice its price.
Unmatched Action
What makes the Malibu legendary? It's the action. Pro-Tech's unique button lock mechanism creates virtually friction-free deployment that feels like magic every time. Open it with the flipper tab, close it with the button—smooth as glass in both directions. This is the fidget-friendly knife that actually works when you need it.
Built for Life
Features That Matter:
- Premium blade steels: CPM-20CV or MagnaCut with more being added
- Lightweight aluminum handles in multiple colors
- Deep-carry pocket clip that disappears in your pocket
- Ceramic ball bearings for silk-smooth action
- Made in USA with Pro-Tech's renowned quality control
Legal Everywhere, Ready Anywhere
First responders and outdoor professionals love the Malibu because it's a manual folder—no legal restrictions, but opens just as fast as any restricted knife. The ergonomic handle fits comfortably in any hand, and the textured versions give you solid grip even when things get messy.
