Product Description

The Kershaw Covalent (2042) is "all business" and built for the modern user who demands both style and mechanical excellence. This mid-sized folder features a striking ergonomic design characterized by its unique textured handle pockets, providing a signature look that stands out in any EDC rotation. Beyond its aesthetics, the Covalent utilizes Kershaw's ultra-secure DuraLock technology, a crossbar-style system that offers a rock-solid mechanical lockup and effortless, ambidextrous closing without ever putting your fingers in the blade's path.

The 3.2-inch drop point blade is forged from D2 high-carbon tool steel, a favorite for high-performance utility due to its exceptional edge retention and toughness. The blade is finished with a non-reflective BlackWash™ coating, which hides scratches and wear better than a standard satin finish. Deployment is snappy and consistent thanks to the manual KVT ball-bearing system and an intuitive flipper tab. At only 2.84 ounces, the Covalent is a lightweight powerhouse that delivers a full-sized grip and elite cutting performance.

• High-Performance D2 Tool Steel: Premium tool steel provides world-class wear resistance and a flat-ground edge that stays razor-sharp through heavy use.

• Ambidextrous DuraLock System: The solid steel crossbar lock ensures the blade is securely locked open and allows for incredibly safe, one-handed closing.

• Ultra-Smooth KVT Deployment: Features manual ball-bearing washers for a frictionless, hydraulic-like opening experience every time you hit the flipper.

• Signature GFN Ergonomics: The glass-filled nylon handle features ergonomic contouring and recessed textured pockets for a secure, "locked-in" grip.

• Extra-Deep Reversible Clip: Designed for maximum concealment and convenience, the deep-carry clip is easily reversible for left or right-handed carry.
