Product Description
The Kershaw Livewire Gray & Black Tanto (9000TGRYBLK) is a sophisticated blend of industrial aesthetics and tactical precision. As Kershaw’s premier double-action out-the-front (OTF) automatic, the Livewire series has redefined the category with an action that is famously smooth and reliable. This variant features a professional Gray-anodized handle contrasted by a stealthy Black-finished tanto blade, offering a clean, modern look for the serious user.
The 3.3-inch tanto blade is forged from CPM MagnaCut, the American-made "super steel" (60-64 HRC) that delivers a virtually impossible balance of extreme toughness, edge retention, and total corrosion resistance. The tanto profile provides a reinforced tip for high-force piercing and tactical durability. The handle is precision-machined from 6061-T6 aluminum with strategic texturing and a curved, staircase-style thumb slide designed to follow the natural arc of your thumb. Lightweight, lighting-fast, and built to last, the Livewire is the ultimate tool for those who demand USA-made excellence.
