Introducing the enhanced Kershaw Leek, now featuring a sleek BlackWash finish and a stylish Digital Blue Handle. This updated version combines a modern aesthetic with the worn-in appearance of the blade.
With its 3-inch blade, the Leek strikes a perfect balance between size and functionality. Its slim design ensures easy portability, while the high-performance Sandvik 14C28N blade remains exceptionally sharp for a wide range of cutting tasks. The blade boasts a modified drop-point shape, making it ideal for slicing, while the slender tip allows for precise and detailed work.
Equipped with the SpeedSafe ambidextrous assisted opening system, the BlackWash Leek ensures quick and effortless blade deployment. Simply pull back on the flipper, and the blade is ready to tackle any job, regardless of whether you're left or right-handed.
For added safety and convenience, the Leek features a reliable frame lock that securely holds the blade in place during use. Additionally, a Tip-Lock slider keeps the blade securely closed when folded. The pocketclip can be adjusted for tip-up or tip-down carry, and the handle is designed with drilled holes to accommodate a lanyard.
Experience the upgraded Kershaw Leek, combining style, functionality, and ease of use in one exceptional knife.
