Product Description
The Kershaw Launch 13 Blue (7650BLU) brings a vibrant, high-energy aesthetic to one of the most avant-garde designs in the Launch series. Proudly made in the USA, this automatic folder is the perfect marriage of slim ergonomics and full-sized cutting power. The striking Blue-anodized handle provides a custom look that sets it apart from traditional tactical knives, while the aggressive Wharncliffe blade remains ready for serious work.
The 3.5-inch blade is crafted from CPM-154 powdered metallurgy steel, selected for its superior edge retention and durability. This model features a sophisticated two-tone black finish that accentuates the sharp, angular grinds of the Wharncliffe profile. The blade’s slight angle provides enhanced leverage for slicing and detail work, making it as utilitarian as it is eye-catching. With a weight of only 2.4 ounces and a narrow 0.47-inch handle thickness, the Launch 13 Blue offers rapid deployment and effortless carry for the discerning EDC enthusiast.
