Folding everyday carry (EDC) knife featuring a recurve drop-point blade crafted from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, renowned for its strength and outstanding resistance to wear and corrosion.
A Stonewash finish enhances the blade, while the ergonomically shaped handle is constructed from robust glass fiber-reinforced nylon. Textured for improved grip, the handle ensures secure handling during operation. When deployed, the blade is secured with a Liner-Lock mechanism.
The flipper with assisted opening guarantees fast and effortless blade deployment. An extra-deep-carry clip offers ambidextrous mounting options for either right- or left-side carry, making the knife easy to attach to a belt, pocket, backpack, or other gear for convenient everyday transport.

Kershaw is an American knife brand founded in 1974 by Pete Kershaw in Oregon, which from the beginning focused on top quality and practical solutions for hunters, anglers, and everyday users. In 1977, the company was acquired by Japan's Kai Group, which allowed it to combine American innovation with Japanese craftsmanship. In 1998, Kershaw revolutionized the market by introducing the SpeedSafe assisted opening mechanism, and in the following years it won prestigious Blade Show awards for models such as the Tyrade with Composite Blade technology combining two different grades of steel. The brand is also known for its cooperation with outstanding knifemakers, including Ken Onion, Ernest Emerson, and Rick Hinderer, which resulted in iconic models such as the Leek and Cryo.
