A pattern has emerged. Smoky Mountain Knife Works seems to have cut a deal to offer exclusive Gunsmoke Grey versions of popular Pro-Tech autos. The Pro-Tech TR-3X1 (aka the Tactical Response 3) is the latest SMKW exclusive to hit the shelves. This push-button auto lives up to Pro-Tech standards for sure and has some very nice features.
The Pro-Tech TR-3X1 falls into the medium to full-size EDC range and features a 3.5″ 154CM drop point blade. The bead blasted finish makes it appear to be gunsmoke grey. It matches the bead blasted hardware on the handle, including the button, the pivot screw, and the tip-up pocket clip.
The handles are gunsmoke grey anodized 6061-T6 aluminum with a fish scale texture. Believe it or not, the fish scale isn’t slippery. It’s fairly grippy in hand, and the handle is rounded out with a lanyard hole.
The Pro-Tech TR-3X1 is a push-button auto with that excellent Pro-Tech snap you’re used to. It closes down to just 4.5″, opens up to a full 8″ overall, and weighs in at just 3.6oz. This premium (and exclusive Pro-Tech) is just under $184.
