Kershaw Launch 16 Auto Black CPM-M4 Serrated Tanto Blade 7105
Kershaw
The CPM-M4 knife is made from a high-speed tool steel that offers a great balance of toughness, strength, and resistance to wear. It is perfect for cutting tools and despite its high wear resistance, it is relatively easy to sharpen. The knife is made using powder metallurgy, which results in a finer grain and a clean composition, enhancing its strength and toughness. However, it has low corrosion resistance.
