Kershaw Black Blur Pocket Knife (1670BLK)

Description

The Kershaw Black Blur Pocket Knife (1670BLK) is a highly effective everyday carry pocketknife designed by Ken Onion. It features a 3.4-inch slightly recurved drop point blade made from high-performance Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel. This steel offers a good balance of corrosion resistance, hardness, and edge retention, making it suitable for a variety of cutting and piercing tasks. The blade is coated with a Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) finish, which provides additional corrosion resistance and enhances the blade’s overall durability and appearance. The handle is constructed from black anodized 6061-T6 aluminum, which is known for being scratch and fade resistant, ensuring long-term aesthetic integrity. Integrated Trac-Tec grip-tape inserts are a crucial feature, providing a remarkably solid and non-slip grip, even in wet conditions, enhancing user control and safety. The knife utilizes Kershaw’s SpeedSafe® assisted opening mechanism, allowing for quick and smooth one-handed blade deployment via a thumb stud, making it readily accessible when needed. Its inset liner lock securely holds the blade in the open position during use, contributing to its reliability. Made in the USA, this knife embodies classic Kershaw quality and design, offering a versatile tool for daily tasks and work.
