The Artisan Cutlery Proponent 1820G-BP: Dirtbag EDC Exclusive Black PVD S35VN & Seafoam Topo Titanium Cleaver Tank

Listen up, you thumb-flicking maniacs, pay attention. If your current pocket setup feels like a delicate, lightweight toothpick that flexes when you put real muscle into a cut, it’s time for an immediate gear check. Stop acting like a bench-top bench-warmer who carries a weak, paper-thin blade to handle heavy-duty shop abuse. Meet the Dirtbag EDC Exclusive Artisan Proponent (1820G-BP), designed by the legendary Dirk Pinkerton. This isn't some timid, mass-produced folder—it’s an 8.85-inch, 10.9-ounce absolute slab of high-end tactical iron engineered for the garage-dwelling gearhead who demands premium CPM-S35VN super steel, titanium seafoam topographic scales, and absolute fixed-blade security while enjoying a fresh box of Crayons.

It pairs a massive, Black PVD-coated S35VN Wharncliffe/cleaver blade with custom Seafoam Topographic Titanium handles, looking completely lethal sitting on a grease-stained workbench right next to your primary daily tools.

The Sharp & Salty Details

• The Black PVD S35VN Super Steel Engine: We are talking a surgical 3.85-inch (98mm) flat-ground Wharncliffe/cleaver blade forged from CPM-S35VN steel, hardened to a serious 59-61 HRC. Finished in a low-profile Black PVD Coating with an absolute unit of a 0.18-inch (4.75mm) blade thickness, this high-grade steel delivers insane edge retention, superior toughness, and corrosion resistance that survives significantly longer than a certified "Window Licker's" daily attention span.

• Titanium Seafoam Topo Armor & Frame Lock: Outfitted with custom Seafoam Topo-engraved Titanium handle scales measuring a palm-filling 5.0 inches (127mm) closed. Backed by a ultra-solid Titanium Frame Lock and matching titanium pocket clip, giving you zero-flex lockup and a high-friction grip that sheds shop grease and grime.

• Convertible "Lock Pin" Fixed-Blade Security: Features ambidextrous thumb studs for high-speed one-handed deployment, plus a specialized threaded steel lock pin. Screw the pin directly through the frame and blade to transform this massive folding tank into a 100% solid fixed blade for extreme leverage and hard-use chopping tasks.

• Heavyweight Operational Muscle: Tipping the scales at a monster 10.9 oz (310g), this Dirtbag EDC Exclusive pulls zero punches, bringing pure destruction to thick cardboard, heavy straps, and shop debris.

The Artisan Proponent Dirtbag EDC Exclusive deletes fragile folders from your rotation and upgrades your pocket arsenal to elite status. Stop acting like a socket-wrench slinging savage with a dull piece of stamped tin and drop a real titanium-and-S35VN cleaver tank straight into your gear setup.
