The Medford Emperor fixed blade knife rules supreme over the world of lesser cutlery. It takes the beloved, iconic design of the Medford Praetorian, skips the pivot in favor of additional strength, and slides its blade securely into a sheath. We've said it before and we'll say it again: When the world ends, Medford knives will stand proud beside Twinkies and cockroaches in the rubble. If you need a fixed blade you can bet everything on, you'll be hard-pressed to find something better than the Medford Emperor.
