Folder Kershaw Emerson CQC-9K

Folding Knife Kershaw Emerson CQC-9K

Kershaw Knives and Emerson Knives have joined forces on a series of knives that combine the precision engineering of Kershaw with Emerson's uncompromising functional design.

The CQC-9K folder is one of the biggest of the bunch and offers both maximum Emerson look-and-feel as well as maximum Kershaw build quality.

The knife's big drop-point blade is 3.6 inches (approx. 9.1 cm) of black-oxide-coated 8Cr13MoV stainless steel for good edge retention, hardness and wear resistance. There's a slight recurve in the blade for enhanced cutting of rounded materials, such as rope, hose or zip ties.

The handle is contoured to fit the hand like a glove. The front scale is textured G-10 for a secure grip. The handle back is black-oxide coated steel and features a secure frame lock.

The CQC-9K is a manual opener using either the thumb disk or the patented Emerson wave shaped feature. This opening feature enables the knife to be opened as it is removed from the pocket. By the time the knife has been fully withdrawn from the pocket, the blade is deployed and ready for use. A small wave-shaped tab on the top of the blade is built to catch on the pocket seam, opening the knife as it comes out of the pocket. This instant-open feature is a favorite among military, rescue, and law enforcement knife users. 

The pocket clip is reversible for left- or right-handed carry.
