Kershaw LEEK, BlackWash, Folder

Folding Knife Kershaw Leek with BlackWash Finish
 
A must-have addition to your Leek collection!

The famous Kershaw Leek just got better - with Kershaw's new BlackWash™ finish that gives this knife an already-broken-in look, like your favorite pair of well-worn jeans.

The Kershaw Leek just may be the ideal EDC. With its 3-inch (approx. 7.6 cm) blade, this folder is a good-sized knife, but not too big. The slim design makes it easy to carry and its razor-sharp blade of high-performance Sandvik 14C28N steel means it can take care of a full range of cutting tasks.

The blade is a modified drop-point, so it is a good slicing knife, while the slim tip gives it piercing capability and the ability to do detailed work. Like other Onion* knives, the Leek features the SpeedSafe ambidextrous assisted opening system. Whether you're left-handed or right-handed, just pull back on the blade protrusion or push outward on the thumb stud and the Leek's blade is ready to go to work.

For confident blade use, a super-secure frame lock keeps the blade locked during use and a Tip-Lock slider locks the blade closed when folded.

The pocket clip can be configured for tip-up or tip-down carry, and the handle is drilled to accept a lanyard.
