Product Description
Inspired by the legendary Zero Tolerance 0999, the Kershaw Frontrunner (2039) is a masterpiece of complex engineering and avant-garde design. This manual folder breaks away from traditional aesthetics, utilizing a multi-piece handle construction and strategically placed negative space to create a knife that looks like a high-end custom piece. But don't let its striking appearance fool you—the Frontrunner is a precision tool built for real-world performance, featuring a heavy-duty D2 tool steel blade and ultra-smooth mechanical action.
The 2.9-inch clip point blade is finished with a combination of gray PVD and stonewash, expertly hiding wear while providing a non-reflective, tactical look. Deployment is effortless thanks to the KVT ball-bearing system and a snappy flipper tab. The handle is a sophisticated blend of stainless steel and machined G10 components, accented by a custom G10 pivot collar and a bronze-tone overtravel stop. Despite its intricate, multi-layered look, the Frontrunner remains highly functional, offering a secure frame lock and an extra-deep-carry pocket clip for discreet transportation.
