PROMETHEUS DESIGN WERX TERRAVANTIUM STS-AT: A RUST-PROOF EDC FOLDER
KEVIN ESTELA
ALL-WEATHER WORTHY

I first learned about Prometheus Design Werx around 2016. The company caught my eye, and I noticed it understood the spirit of adventure. A deep dive into the company’s website revealed more than a handful of overland and backcountry trips in varying environments and a flair for the classic designs used by woodsmen and sportsmen brought up to date with modern materials and manufacturing.

A company like Prometheus Design Werx doesn’t mess around with the gear it carries and, for full disclosure, as a sponsored brand representative, I will say its gear holds up in all of my own travels and adventures. I’m fortunate to be one of its writers blogging about my adventures and general bushcraft and outdoors skills on its affiliate site, Danger Ranger Bear. Simply put, adventure and exploring run deep in this company on all levels.

FOLDING CHUTE KNIFE

I’ve had the good fortune to use Prometheus Design Werx equipment on the water and underneath it as a boater and diver. I’ve taken its gear to the arctic on fishing trips as well as to the tropics while hiking in the rainforest. I have a great relationship with the company and give feedback on products as my experience with them grows.Well, recently PDW paired with the knife company Terrain 365 to produce something I want for future adventures but was only given a temporary loaner for now. The PDW Limited Edition of the Terrain 365 STS-AT knife is truly a combination of old-school cool with modern technology and manufacturing.

KITCHEN KNIVES DON'T HAVE TO BE DULL

I have a confession to make. See if this sounds familiar. I take meticulous care of the knives I use for everyday carry, hunting, and general woods wandering. I wipe them down with an oily cloth after use and I never let them get too dull. Seldom do I have to restore a damaged edge. Most of the time I simply touch up the edges of my pocketknives with a few careful strokes across the rough bottom of a ceramic coffee cup. That’s usually all that’s needed. I don’t use my knives as screwdrivers or pry bars. As a matter of fact, I still have the very first knife I ever owned, an old Boy Scout knife that was handed down from my older brother. The blades have a deep patina that comes with using carbon steel over the years, but the knife is very usable still.
