Product Description
The legendary Kershaw Leek (1660GRD) receives a high-performance upgrade, combining the industry's most wanted "super steel" with a striking new aesthetic. This Made-in-the-USA classic now features a CPM MagnaCut blade, offering an elite balance of edge retention, toughness, and extreme corrosion resistance. Whether you are a longtime collector or looking for the ultimate everyday carry, the Leek 1660GRD delivers premium metallurgy in a slim, pocket-friendly design.
The 3-inch Wharncliffe blade is finished in a rugged stonewash that expertly hides wear, while the hollow grind ensures surgical slicing precision.

Equipped with Kershaw’s famous SpeedSafe® assisted opening, the Leek snaps open with a simple pull of the flipper or a push of the thumb stud. Complete with a secure liner lock and the signature Tip-Lock slider to prevent accidental deployment, this MagnaCut Leek is the new gold standard for EDC.
