This KNIFE BLEW ME AWAY! | Medford Praetorian Genesis T s90v steel
Ойын-сауық
I can't begin to tell you how SURPRISED I was after getting this in hand. I thought this would be too small, too thin, and too stiff to be a good little carry knife. I was dead wrong.
This is the ORIGINAL Praetorian design size. The Knife was made in its current full size as a printing fluke as a novelty! Who knew it would take the knife world by storm? This was the predetermined size of the design. The Praetorian Genesis is for that “This one is too big, this one is too small” knife nut. The Praetorian Genesis is that middle ground that looks as bad-ass as ever and wont spook Democrats in your presence but is still large enough for nearly anything.

Nice! I have never had or handled any Medford, so a model video would be nice. I have been interested in them for awhile and really close to getting one, but at the price I want to get the right one. Thanks
I love the big medford clips with the m
Just ordered this same knife for Xmas! It will go good with my full size praetorian T in magnacut! Happy holidays!

You totally should
Great knife
As someone who never warmed to the full-size Praetorian less because of size and more because 1) I preferred a drop point blade and virtually everything out there was a tanto, 2) I found my fingers sliding out of the fuller on the blade, and 3) often, I'd get to look at early models that were screwing into the Ti, I really thought the Praetorian was a let-down; a design that I just gave up on as I moved toward the Marauder H and the 187DP instead. All that changed this past week when for the first time, after holding seven or eight full-sized Praetorians, I got to handle a Praetorian Genesis. I was under the mistaken assumption it would be in the same size class as the Micro Praetorian, which I was impressed by regarding design and manufacture, but just thought was too small for me personally (if someone has smaller hands out there, I imagine it would be a good hard-use EDC knife for them, in fairness). The Praetorian Genesis isn't in the same universe as the Micro Praetorian, size-wise, lucky for me; it's like an 80% size Praetorian, and I'm fine with that for EDC (since the full-sized Praetorian's size in no way bothered me). The fullers are leaps and bounds ahead of the rounded fullers on the Praetorian, it has a better design on the lockbar/it won't catch on the relief cut, and most of all, Medford's manufacturing techniques had obviously advanced, which I was expecting given the more recent dates of manufacture for my Marauder and my 187DP, but which I just hadn't seen and I suppose needed to see. In short, not only did I get one, but I would actually go so far as to say that if the full-size Praetorian took some cues from the Genesis regarding more drop points and better fullers, it would honest-to-goodness be a better knife, at least in my opinion. As a footnote, I should say I was also impressed with the Praetorian Swift I handled, but I should also point out that if you have a 187DP as I do, you basically have a budget Praetorian Swift, so the choice of going for the Genesis seemed obvious for me.
I love my medford, but both my s90v models had extream blade stick for the longest time, like 2 hands struggling. 187 dp and 187 flipper. They finaly broke in with very minimal blade stick, you had any trouble with s90v models?
Great video. I just ordered this exact knife. Is the pocket clip easily removed?
Agree 100% I have a DLT S90V Praetorian T and just bought a Genesis version, both in this fantastic drop point!
External lock pin gives more lateral strength, or so they say at least
:)
can't bring myself to like the guy... the knife looks cool but will never support that racist lol.

@symplesy2056 he was talking crap about commie chinese who steal designs and make fake knockoffs. You've been conditioned to despise any white person who even dares make a joke or reference race. You've given the term racist and homophobic no meaning anymore since it now applies to anyone who isn't part of the big govt left. Congrats, you played yourself.
