Product Description
The Kershaw Livewire Blue (9000BLU) brings a vibrant, high-end look to one of the most successful out-the-front (OTF) launches in knife history. A collaboration between Kershaw’s engineering team and custom maker Matt Diskin, the Livewire was built to solve the common frustrations of OTF carry: difficult deployment and subpar steel. This edition features a brilliant Blue-anodized handle, offering a premium aesthetic for those who want their gear to stand out without sacrificing tactical utility.
The 3.3-inch spear point blade is crafted from the industry's premier "super steel," CPM MagnaCut. This American-made steel is specifically engineered to provide extreme toughness and edge retention while remaining virtually immune to rust. The blade is finished with a heavy stonewash to mask the scuffs of daily use. The Blue 6061-T6 aluminum handle is lightweight yet incredibly rigid, featuring a unique "staircase" thumb slide. This tiered button design provides a secure grip for your thumb and a smooth, effortless firing action that sets the Livewire apart from the competition.
