If you're considering stepping into the world of automatics, the Kershaw Launch 1 might just be The One. This USA-made folder delivers fast, reliable performance with a powerful push-button automatic action. The 3.4-inch CPM 154 blade offers a superb balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, finished in BlackWash™ to hide scratches from hard use. The lightweight aluminum handle is contoured for a secure, ergonomic grip and features a low-profile push button for added safety against accidental deployment. A reversible pocket clip and integrated backspacer with lanyard tie-off make this knife as functional as it is sleek—ideal for everyday, work, or tactical use.
