Product Description
The Kershaw Catalytic (1341) is an all-steel, high-performance everyday carry folder designed for those who prefer the substantial, "built-to-last" feel of a solid metal handle. Featuring a clean, industrial aesthetic and a robust frame lock, the Catalytic is engineered to be a dependable workhorse for a lifetime of service. Its sleek, bead-blasted finish gives it a professional look that fits just as well in an office environment as it does on a job site, offering a "no-nonsense" approach to modern utility.
The 3.0-inch drop point blade is crafted from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, providing an excellent balance of edge retention and ease of maintenance.

With its full stainless steel handle, the Catalytic offers exceptional structural strength and a secure, confidence-inspiring grip that heavy-duty tasks demand.
