Product Description
Designed by custom knifemaker Les George, the Kershaw 3490 Seguin (pronounced "sig-EEN") is a testament to the philosophy that functionality is "Job 1." This mid-sized powerhouse is built for users who demand a rugged, no-nonsense tool that doesn't compromise on style. With its heavily machined aesthetics and overbuilt construction, the Seguin is ready to tackle a full range of cutting tasks with professional-grade reliability.
The 3.1-inch drop point blade is forged from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, featuring a sleek gray PVD coating that enhances both corrosion resistance and tactical appeal. The blade's thick 0.147-inch spine provides exceptional strength for piercing and prying, while the flat grind ensures clean slicing performance. Deployment is lightning-fast thanks to the patented SpeedSafe® assisted opening mechanism, easily activated via the integrated flipper tab. The handle is a highlight of the design, constructed from solid stainless steel with a stonewashed finish and deep, precision-milled grooves that provide an incredibly secure, high-traction grip. Secured by a rock-solid frame lock, the Seguin is a heavy-duty EDC choice that feels as substantial as it looks.
