Product Description
The Kershaw Outright Blackout (8320BLKST) is a sleek, tactical-inspired folder that balances a dramatic aesthetic with hardworking utility. Featuring a distinctive trailing point blade, this knife provides an elongated cutting curve that excels at slicing, while the partial serrations add the aggressive "teeth" needed to power through rope, webbing, and heavy plastics. Finished in a total "blackout" colorway, the Outright is as stylish as it is functional, making it a standout choice for an everyday carry that looks as sharp as it cuts.
The 3-inch blade is crafted from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, providing a durable edge that is easy to maintain in the field. The entire blade is treated with a scratch-resistant Black PVD coating, ensuring the knife maintains its stealthy look even after heavy use. Deployment is instantaneous thanks to the SpeedSafe® assisted opening mechanism, which fires the blade open with a simple pull on the flipper tab. The hybrid handle combines the strength of a stainless steel frame lock with a high-traction black G-10 overlay, offering a rock-solid lockup and a secure, non-slip grip.
