Introducing the Kershaw 1660TEAL Leek, a knife that combines style and functionality. This popular knife now comes in a vibrant teal color, allowing you to have the Leek you've always wanted.
The blade of this Leek is made from Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel, known for its high performance. With a 3-inch length and a modified drop-point shape, the blade offers excellent slicing capabilities. The slim tip is perfect for piercing and detail work. The blade comes razor sharp out of the box and maintains its edge well.
The teal color is applied to the anodized aluminum handle, which not only looks great but also provides durability. The color is fade-resistant and scratch-resistant, thanks to a permanent bonding process. Anodizing also strengthens the aluminum, ensuring long-lasting performance.
Equipped with SpeedSafe technology, this teal Leek is quick and easy to open with either hand, thanks to the ambidextrous flipper. For added safety, a locking liner keeps the blade securely open during use, and a Tip-Lock slider locks it closed when folded.
In summary, the Kershaw 1660TEAL Leek is a stylish and reliable knife that offers excellent cutting performance. Its teal color and anodized aluminum handle make it a standout choice for those who appreciate both aesthetics and functionality.
