Product Description
The Kershaw Leek Snake Skin (1660SNAKE) is a bold, high-definition update to one of the most popular pocket knives ever created. Designed by Ken Onion and proudly manufactured in the USA, this special edition features an ultra-realistic Snake Skin pattern applied via advanced Ultra Fine Image (UFI) technology. The result is a striking, lifelike aesthetic that transforms the slim, professional Leek into a standout piece for collectors and outdoor enthusiasts alike, without sacrificing the precision performance that made the series famous.
The 3-inch drop point blade is crafted from high-performance Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel, providing an ideal balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening. A non-reflective bead-blasted finish complements the natural tones of the handle. Equipped with Kershaw's patented SpeedSafe® assisted opening, the blade snaps into position instantly with a simple pull of the flipper tab or a push of the thumb studs. For maximum security, the Leek includes a reliable liner lock and a signature Tip-Lock slider to prevent accidental deployment while in your pocket.
