Product Description

Discover the perfect balance of agility and strength with the Kershaw Launch 18 (7551). Proudly made in the USA, this compact automatic is the ultimate companion for those seeking a sharp, featherweight, and blazing-fast everyday carry. Designed with a streamlined profile and a full-flat grind, the Launch 18 is engineered for maximum "slicey" performance in a discreet package that disappears in the pocket.

The 2.79-inch spear point blade is crafted from CPM-154 powdered metallurgy steel, a premium alloy favored for its exceptional edge retention, toughness, and ease of maintenance. Its stonewashed finish expertly hides use scratches, ensuring the knife looks great even after years of hard work. The handle is precision-machined from dark gray anodized aluminum, featuring a contoured, ergonomic design that provides a surprisingly substantial grip for its size. High-end accents, including a ceramic bead-blasted titanium pivot trim ring and an integrated backspacer, give the Launch 18 a touch of custom-tier luxury.
