Folder Kershaw Leek, Orange

Folding Knife Kershaw Leek with Orange Handle
 
Looking for a Leek that won't get lost in the grass? Take a look at Kershaw's new orange Leek! This folder is a slim, easy-to-carry design that gives you plenty of cutting versatility - and good looks.

The brilliant orange of the anodized-aluminum handle scales is a fade-resistant, scratch-resistant dye which is permanently bonded to the aluminum - so it looks good now and will continue to look good later.

The business end of the knife is a task-ready 3-inch (approx. 7.6 cm) blade of Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel, designed in a partnership between Kershaw and Sandvik. This high-performance steel enables Kershaw to make the Leek's blade razor-sharp out of the box and helps it hold that edge, too. The modified drop-point blade shape makes it a good slicing knife, while the slim tip gives it piercing capability and the ability to do detailed work.

Like other Onion* knives, the Leek features the SpeedSafe assisted opening system. Whether you're left-handed or right-handed, just pull back on the ambidextrous flipper and the Leek's blade is ready to go to work. For confident blade use, a locking liner keeps the blade locked open during use and a Tip-Lock slider locks it closed when folded.

The pocket clip is reversible for tip-up or tip-down carry and the handle is drilled to accept a lanyard.
