Product Description

The Kershaw 1600 Chive is the definitive "perfect little pocketknife," packing high-performance American engineering into a compact, sub-2-inch frame. Designed by the legendary Ken Onion, the Chive is built for those who need a discrete yet highly capable EDC tool that fits effortlessly into a pocket, pack, purse, or briefcase. Despite its miniature stature, it is a workhorse ready to tackle everything from breaking down heavy cardboard to precision cutting.

The 1.9-inch drop point blade is crafted from 420HC stainless steel, offering an ideal balance of corrosion resistance and ease of resharpening. Both the blade and the sleek 410 stainless steel handle feature a rugged stonewashed finish, which effectively hides scratches and wear from daily use while providing a professional, non-reflective look. Deployment is instantaneous thanks to the patented SpeedSafe® assisted opening system, easily activated by the integrated flipper or thumb stud. For maximum safety, the Chive includes a rock-solid frame lock to secure the blade during use and a Tip-Lock slider to prevent accidental opening while in your pocket.

• 1.9" 420HC Stainless Steel Blade featuring a hollow-ground drop point profile and a durable stonewashed finish for versatile, everyday utility.

• Full Stainless Steel Construction provides a sturdy, weighted feel and a slim 0.28-inch handle thickness that disappears in the pocket.

• SpeedSafe® Assisted Opening ensures lightning-fast, one-handed deployment with a simple pull of the flipper tab.

• Made in the USA and equipped with a secure frame lock, Tip-Lock safety slider, and a single-position pocket clip for reliable daily carry.
