Product Description
The Kershaw Launch 12 CA-Legal (7130BLUBLK) delivers the sharp, aggressive profile of a classic Italian stiletto in a vibrant, California-compliant format. Designed by Matt Diskin, this "mini stiletto" is specifically engineered with a 1.9-inch blade to meet strict automatic knife regulations while retaining the premium materials and snappy action of the full-sized Launch series. Proudly Made in the USA, the 7130BLUBLK features a striking blue and black aesthetic that stands out in any collection.
The blade is crafted from premium CPM-154 powdered metallurgy steel, a top-tier American steel favored for its exceptional edge retention and toughness. The non-reflective black finish provides a tactical look that contrasts beautifully with the blue anodized aluminum handle. To further elevate the design, Kershaw has integrated sleek carbon fiber inlays and a deep top grind on the blade to enhance the traditional stiletto silhouette. With integrated finger guards for safety and a recessed "bullseye" firing button, the Launch 12 CA is a sophisticated and legally-conscious choice for automatic knife enthusiasts.
