Folder Kershaw Knockout, Olive & Black

Folding Knife Kershaw Knockout, Black Blade, O.D. Green Handle
 
The original Knockout continues to deliver knockout-good looks and top performance. But now Kershaw has kicked it up a notch with an olive drab (O.D. green) handle and a black DLC-coated blade.

The olive-and-black Knockout still has its namesake knocked out section in the handle. This knocked-out piece in the anodized aluminum frame is replaced with a stainless steel plate to form Kershaw's Sub-Frame Lock. This steel plate moves behind the knife blade to lock it open safely and securely. Yet because only part of the knife handle or frame is steel, the Knockout can maintain a lighter fighting weight and still provide a strong frame lock. The result is a knife that's big, yet lightweight enough to carry every day.

The blade is a modified drop point in high-performance Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel with a matte black DLC coating. The steel offers excellent corrosion resistance and hardenability, while the coating protects the blade and enhances performance.

This folder is equipped with the SpeedSafe® assisted opening system for smooth and easy one-handed opening. Pull back on the built-in flipper or push on the thumb stud and the blade moves out of the handle quickly and easily.

The Knockout also comes with Kershaw's deep-carry pocket clip so the knife can sit all the way down in your pocket. Even better, the handle is drilled for 4-position carry.

Lightweight and versatile, this Knockout provides a new color combination that will make it an ongoing favorite.
