Product Description
The Kershaw Launch 8 (7150TEALBLK) modernizes the iconic Italian stiletto for a new generation of enthusiasts. Combining the symmetrical, aggressive lines of a traditional switchblade with high-performance American materials, this model features a vibrant teal anodized handle that stands out in any collection. Proudly Made in the USA, the Launch 8 is engineered to be exceptionally lightweight—at just 2.4 ounces—offering a full-sized 3.5-inch blade in a package that is remarkably easy to carry.
The slim spear point blade is crafted from premium CPM-154 powdered metallurgy steel, delivering elite edge retention and toughness. The blade features a non-reflective black finish and a deep top grind to reduce weight while maintaining that classic stiletto silhouette. To preserve the knife's perfect symmetry, the pivot is recessed into the handle and concealed by a carbon fiber insert. With integrated top and bottom finger guards for safety and a powerful "bullseye" firing button, the Launch 8 Teal is a sophisticated blend of heritage style and modern tactical engineering.
