History
The Praetorian Genesis was conceived as the original design size for the Praetorian series. However, due to a communication error, the full-sized Praetorian was released first. Despite this, the Genesis found its place in the market, offering a more manageable size while retaining the overbuilt characteristics Medford is known for. It has been offered in various configurations, including different blade steels like CPM-S35VN, CPM-3V, and S45VN, with diverse finishes and handle treatments. The Praetorian series, including the Genesis, was officially sunsetted (discontinued) by Medford Knife & Tool in 2024, marking the end of an era for this iconic knife line.
Initial pricing for variants of the Praetorian Genesis Ti ranged, with some models listed around $1,560.00 to $1,800.00.
