Purple Buddy MTech – Spring-assisted pocket knife with droppoint blade

The Purple Buddy MTech is a spring-assisted pocket knife featuring a 8.89cm droppoint blade made from 3Cr13 stainless steel. This everyday carry knife weighs 158g and includes a liner lock mechanism for secure blade deployment.

Construction and materials

The knife measures 20.96cm when open and 12.07cm when folded. The blade features a coated finish in purple and a plain-edge grind. The 3Cr13 steel construction provides basic corrosion resistance while remaining easy to sharpen. The handle includes textured surfaces for grip and a pocket clip for convenient carry.

Application and use

Designed for EDC (everyday carry) applications, this pocket knife handles routine cutting tasks such as opening packages, cutting rope, and food preparation. The spring-assisted opening mechanism allows for quick deployment, while the droppoint blade shape offers versatility for general utility work.

Integration and compatibility

The knife operates with a spring-assisted opening system and can be deployed one-handed. The integrated pocket clip allows for tip-up carry in standard pockets. The liner lock secures the blade in the open position and releases with thumb pressure.

Maintenance and lifecycle

The 3Cr13 steel requires regular maintenance despite its stainless properties. Monthly oiling prevents corrosion, while the coated finish provides additional protection but may show wear with intensive use. The blade sharpens easily with standard whetstones when edge maintenance is needed.
