Product Description
The Kershaw Livewire Carbon Fiber (9000TCF) is the premium, high-tech evolution of Kershaw’s flagship out-the-front (OTF) automatic. This model elevates the Matt Diskin design to an executive level by pairing a weight-saving Carbon Fiber front handle with a robust black-anodized aluminum back. The result is a tactical tool that looks as sharp in a boardroom as it does in the field, delivering the most refined double-action experience in the Livewire family.
The 3.3-inch tanto blade is forged from CPM MagnaCut, the American "super steel" (62-64 HRC) that has redefined the industry by offering maximum toughness and edge retention while remaining virtually rust-proof. Finished in a clean, high-end Satin, the tanto profile provides a reinforced tip for superior piercing and structural strength. With its signature staircase-style thumb slide, the Livewire fires and retracts with a mechanical precision and smoothness that eliminates the heavy "thumb-shredding" resistance found in other OTFs.
