Kershaw Spoke 1313BLK Black Stainless Steel 2-Inch Blade
Kershaw
The Kershaw Spoke is a compact knife with a blade length of just 2 inches, making it convenient to carry anywhere. Despite its small size, this knife is highly functional. Its large blade belly allows for efficient and effortless slicing, even though the overall blade length is shorter. Opening the knife is quick and easy thanks to Kershaw's assisted opening and the built-in flipper. The flipper, slightly oversized, also serves as a finger guard when the blade is open. It's important to note that older models of this knife use 4Cr14 blade steel, while current production models are made with 8Cr13MoV blade steel.
