Product Description
The Kershaw Esteem 2032 is a sophisticated fusion of traditional pocket knife heritage and high-end modern refinement. Designed as a non-locking slipjoint, the Esteem is an "office-friendly" carry that doesn't sacrifice performance. It features a unique double detent system, utilizing two steel detent balls to keep the blade securely closed in the pocket while providing a crisp, controlled opening and closing action. With its slim profile and elegant hardware, the Esteem is a gentleman’s folder built for the modern world.
The 2.5-inch 8Cr13MoV stainless steel blade features a clean bead-blasted finish, offering a subtle matte look and excellent corrosion resistance. Safety is prioritized with a built-in half-stop position, giving the user an extra layer of control during manual operation. The handle is a masterclass in balance, combining polished black G-10 with a sleek stainless steel scale, all tied together by striking bronze PVD-coated hardware. Whether you’re heading into a boardroom or a brunch, the Esteem is a refined tool that demands to be appreciated.
