REPL7BKM: PL-7 Folding Knife - Black Micarta
Reate Knives
The Reate PL-7 builds on the success of the PL series with a dramatic new silhouette and the same game-changing pivot lock mechanism. This Persian-inspired design blends bold curvature with mechanical precision, offering both visual flair and functional control in equal measure. Its 3.5-inch Nitro-V stainless steel blade features a graceful upswept profile with a pronounced belly - ideal for slicing and draw cuts - finished in either sleek belt satin or stealthy black PVD. The pivot lock continues to impress, operating with the ease of a button lock and the strength of a fixed-position pivot, allowing the blade to open or close with a press of the pivot screw.
The 4.5-inch handle, available in either Micarta or Ultem, delivers excellent grip with nice ergonomics and a slightly thicker build that enhances in-hand comfort during extended use. A sculpted titanium pocket clip and precision fitment throughout reinforce Reate’s commitment to quality and innovation. With the PL-7, Reate pushes the boundaries of form and function, pairing exotic style with rock-solid performance in a knife that’s as eye-catching as it is capable.
