Product Description

The Kershaw Chive Damascus (1600DAMCKT) is a small but mighty masterpiece that brings artisan flair to one of the most iconic pocket knives ever designed. At just under 3 inches when closed, the Chive is the ultimate "fifth-pocket" or gentleman's carry tool. By upgrading the standard stainless steel to Damascus, Kershaw has transformed this functional EDC classic into a sophisticated statement piece that is as beautiful as it is sharp.

The 2-inch drop point blade features multi-layered, acid-etched Damascus steel, ensuring that every single knife has a unique, one-of-a-kind pattern. Despite its diminutive size, the Chive fires with authority thanks to Kershaw's legendary SpeedSafe® assisted opening technology. Simply pull back on the flipper or use the thumb stud to deploy the blade instantly. The handle is precision-machined from black-anodized aluminum, providing a sleek, lightweight, and durable frame that feels right at home in suit pants, a purse, or on a keychain.

• Exquisite Damascus Blade Steel: High-contrast Damascus steel provides a stunning visual grain while delivering a razor-sharp edge for daily cutting tasks.

• Rapid SpeedSafe® Deployment: Features a snappy, one-handed assisted opening mechanism that engages via flipper tab or ambidextrous thumb studs.

• Ultra-Compact "Gentleman's" Carry: At just 4.88 inches overall and weighing only 1.6 ounces, it is the perfect size for discreet, low-profile everyday carry.

• Secure Liner Lock Performance: The 1600DAMCKT utilizes a reliable steel liner lock to ensure the blade stays securely open during use.

• USA-Made Quality: Proudly manufactured in Tualatin, Oregon, featuring a black tip-down pocket clip and a safety Tip-Lock slider to prevent accidental deployment in the pocket.
