Product Description
The Kershaw Leek just may be the ideal EDC — a 3-inch mid-sized folder substantial enough for real work but slim enough to disappear in your pocket, and an iconic Ken Onion design that's been a knife community staple for decades.
Made in the USA and ground from Sandvik 14C28N stainless, the blade is a high-performance alloy engineered specifically for knife applications, delivering excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance with a matte bead-blasted finish. The all-stainless steel construction includes a sturdy frame lock for secure lockup and a contoured handle for a comfortable, ergonomic grip, while Kershaw's patented SpeedSafe assisted opening deploys the blade lightning-fast with a simple pull of the flipper.
- Blade: Sandvik 14C28N stainless, bead-blasted drop point, hollow grind — excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance for daily EDC use
- Handle: 410 stainless steel, contoured for comfort, slim 0.31" profile for discreet carry
- Deployment/Lock: SpeedSafe assisted opening with flipper and thumb stud, secure frame lock plus Tip-Lock slider for double safety
- Carry: 3.00 oz, tip-up/tip-down reversible clip, right carry
