Product Description
The Kershaw Outfield (1428) is a compact, high-performance folder that proves great things come in small packages. As a standout in Kershaw's Starter Series, the Outfield is specifically engineered for users who need a lightweight, ultra-reliable everyday carry (EDC) tool that won't break the bank. With its quick deployment and discreet profile, it is a "home run" for everything from opening packages at the office to handling light outdoor chores.
The 2.8-inch drop point blade is forged from 4Cr14 stainless steel, providing solid corrosion resistance and enough toughness to tackle daily cutting tasks with confidence. The blade features a rugged stonewashed finish, which is perfect for masking the scratches and scuffs that come with frequent use. Deployment is effortless thanks to Kershaw’s famous assisted opening mechanism, which snaps the blade open with a simple pull of the flipper tab. The handle is crafted from black glass-filled nylon (GFN) and features a stylized texture to ensure a comfortable and secure grip in any hand.
