Product Description
The Kershaw Livewire Damascus Tanto (9000TCFDAM) represents the pinnacle of premium out-the-front (OTF) design. A stunning collaboration between Kershaw and custom maker Matt Diskin, this model fuses tactical performance with high-end luxury. Featuring a visually captivating Damascus steel blade and a lightweight carbon fiber chassis, the 9000TCFDAM is as much a collector's masterpiece as it is a reliable tool. Known for having one of the smoothest double-action mechanisms in the industry, the Livewire delivers instant deployment and retraction with unrivaled authority.
The 3.25-inch tanto blade is forged from exquisite Damascus steel, offering a unique, wavy-patterned aesthetic that ensures no two knives are exactly alike. The tanto profile provides a reinforced tip for superior piercing power while maintaining a razor-sharp edge for slicing. The handle construction utilizes a hybrid approach, pairing a high-strength black carbon fiber front scale with a rugged black-anodized aluminum back. This design keeps the knife incredibly light at just 2.9 ounces, while the signature "staircase" thumb slide ensures effortless, one-handed operation.
