The Pro-Tech Malibu Flipper is one of if not the most popular manual knife made by Pro-Tech. With an incredibly smooth opening flipper action, and a reliable push button safety, the Malibu deserves the attention it gets. Very sought after, the Malibu comes in both Wharncliffe style and Reverse Tanto style blades. Pro-Tech introduced a unique tunes button lock detent system which allows the blade to be opened smoothly, due to a crisp breaking detent release. Ball bearings on hardened steel washers assist in providing an ultra-smooth manual flipper action. The handle is surprisingly ergonomic, given its simple shape, and a mini deep carry clip makes Pro-Tech’s Malibu Flipper one of the most reliable everyday carry knives on the market.
This specific model of the Malibu Flipper, 5205 comes stonewashed CPM-20CV reverse Tanto blade. The blue textured aluminum handle and grey stonewashed pocket clip round off this collectible Malibu Flipper, making it another great looking piece by Pro-Tech.
This PRO-TECH MALIBU FLIPPER 5205 is in very good condition. Used only on bond paper to test the sharpness of the blade, like in the posted video above. Blade has never been sharpened and has the original factory edge. Extremely sharp. No chips along the edge and tip remains intact. Blade came centered from the factory with no play. Everything remains tight with no rattles when opening and closing the knife. Great action! Knife has never been taken apart and all hardware remains untouched. TWO VERY SMALL SCRATCHES ON THE CLIP SIDE SCALE HAVE REMOVED THE BLUE COATING THAT THE SILVER METAL IS SHOWN. FROM FLIPPER TAB TO END OF BACKSPACER SHOWS MARKINGS AND SCRATCHES ON THE BLUE COATING (SEE PICS).
