Battleworn black aluminum. Stonewash wharncliffe. All business.

The Pro-Tech Malibu 5305-BW puts a battleworn-finished black aluminum handle on the Malibu platform with a stonewash MagnaCut wharncliffe blade and blasted hardware. Battleworn finish on anodized aluminum creates a worn, layered surface character that hides hard carry and adds visual depth. The wharncliffe blade profile runs a straight cutting edge from the spine all the way to a fine, reinforced tip, giving you excellent control for precision cuts and a tip geometry that excels at drawer gaps, box seams, and work that needs a low angle of attack. Ball bearing pivot, button lock with tuned detent, deep carry clip. No springs. Made in Placentia, California.

MagnaCut behind a stonewash finish is a practical choice for a working knife. The stonewash hides wear and the steel's edge retention means you will sharpen it less than most alternatives. The wharncliffe profile on a Malibu is the configuration for people who carry a knife to use it.

Note from Lone Star Knife & Supply: The BW Malibu is the version for everyday use. Battleworn black, stonewash wharncliffe, blasted hardware, MagnaCut. No color competing for attention, no finish that shows everything. The Malibu action is still one of the best reasons to carry a manual flipper, and this configuration lets the performance be the story.
