Product Description
The Kershaw Launch 12 CA-Legal (7130BLUBW) delivers the sharp, aggressive profile of a classic Italian stiletto in a vibrant, pocket-friendly format. Designed by Matt Diskin, this "mini stiletto" is specifically engineered with a 1.9-inch blade to comply with strict California blade length regulations. Despite its compact size, it retains the powerful "snap" and high-end materials of the larger Launch models. Proudly Made in the USA, the 7130BLUBW combines a bold blue aesthetic with professional-grade performance.
The blade is crafted from premium CPM-154 powdered metallurgy steel, offering superior edge retention and toughness. Its BlackWash™ finish provides a rugged, non-reflective look that pairs perfectly 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 reduce weight and 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.
