I have a few of them, this is my favorite one—small, handy, and sharp.
A lightweight and precisely engineered folding knife designed specifically for everyday carry (EDC).
Featuring a drop-point blade crafted from satin-finished D2 tool steel, renowned for its outstanding impact and abrasion resistance. Jimping along the spine provides a stable thumb rest, promoting both comfort and secure handling. In the open position, a strong and dependable frame lock keeps the blade firmly in place.
Blade deployment is achieved by a small flipper, enhanced by the SpeedSafe system. The Turismo model utilizes ball-bearing KVT (Kershaw Velocity Technology), ensuring exceptionally smooth and rapid blade action.
Constructed from stainless steel, the handle is protected by a PVD coating (Physical Vapor Deposition), offering superior corrosion resistance.
A spring clip ensures convenient daily carry by allowing effortless attachment to a belt or pocket. The clip supports tip-up carry on either the right or left side.

Kershaw is an American knife brand, founded in 1974 by Pete Kershaw in Oregon, which from the very beginning has focused on the highest quality and practical solutions for hunters, anglers, and everyday users. In 1977, the company was acquired by the Japanese Kai Group, allowing 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 won prestigious Blade Show awards for models such as the Tyrade with Composite Blade technology combining two different types of steel. The brand is also known for its collaboration with renowned knifemakers, including Ken Onion, Ernest Emerson, and Rick Hinderer, which has resulted in iconic models such as the Leek and Cryo.
