The Palmer packs all the functionality of a classic utility knife in a refined design that sits comfortably in your hand and pocket, featuring a lanyard for easy deployment, and a variety of great colors in both aluminum and clear recycled PCTG handle options. Its patented mechanism allows for tool-free blade changes and buttery smooth action. Check out the latest addition to The Palmer Family: The Palmer Clear. Made from 100% post-consumer recycled PCTG, it is lighter, brighter, and just as durable as its aluminum counterpart. The Palmer Clear is available in five translucent colors that will instantly make you nostalgic for the days of the Game Boy and the iMac G3. Whichever option you choose, it’s clear that the Palmer bridges the gap between a traditional everyday carry, a lifestyle accessory, and a pure utilitarian tool.
