Product Description
The Kershaw Launch 13 (7650RAW) is a masterclass in aggressive geometry and lightweight precision. Proudly made in the USA, this automatic folder bridges the gap between a high-performance utility tool and a futuristic tactical piece. With its narrow profile and "Raw" silver aesthetic, the Launch 13 offers a full-sized 3.5-inch cutting edge in a package so slim it virtually disappears in your pocket.
The blade is crafted from CPM-154 powdered metallurgy steel, delivering an elite balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The Wharncliffe blade shape is uniquely angled to provide a superior "draw cut" and surgical precision for fine work, while the stonewashed finish masks wear from heavy use. The handle is precision-machined from silver anodized aluminum, featuring sharp, angular lines, a custom triangular pivot, and an integrated lanyard hole. At just 2.4 ounces, the Launch 13 is one of the lightest full-sized automatics on the market, offering rapid deployment at the push of a button.
