Kershaw Bel Air XL Folding Knife - Black/Stonewashed
Robust folding everyday carry knife (EDC), designed as an oversized variant of the renowned Bel Air model. Outfitted with a Reverse Tanto blade crafted from CPM MagnaCut steel. Owing to its sturdy build and premium materials, the knife excels in daily use as well as in more rigorous conditions.
Reverse Tanto blade made of CPM MagnaCut stainless steel
Featuring a Reverse Tanto blade profile, the knife is crafted from CPM MagnaCut stainless steel, hardened to a level of 62-64 HRC. This steel offers exceptional resistance to both corrosion and wear, as well as a minimal risk of chipping or cracking. The blade receives a matte finish through the Stonewashed process, which also helps disguise light signs of use.
Deployment is enabled by a thumb stud combined with ceramic ball bearings at the blade pivot, providing rapid and seamless blade opening.
G10 laminate handle and deep-carry clip
A handle crafted from G10 laminate combines a lightweight build with exceptional durability, ensuring a secure grip and superior user comfort. The inclusion of a deep-carry clip enables discreet and reliable knife carry, while the option to attach the clip on either side of the handle lets users tailor positioning to suit personal preferences.
DuraLock locking mechanism
The DuraLock mechanism secures the blade in the open position, reliably guarding against unintentional closure. As a result, the knife remains safe to operate, even under challenging conditions.
