REVIEW SUMMARY
The Artisan Cutlery Proponent Subsize is a compact EDC folder designed by Dirk Pinkerton featuring a 3" D2 steel Wharncliffe blade with Black PVD coating. The subsize version offers the same premium design as the full-size in a more compact 4" closed form factor. Notable features include ceramic ball bearing pivot for smooth action, G10 handle scales, and robust liner lock construction. At 5.64oz, it's a solid mid-weight carry option with excellent tactical utility and everyday versatility.
