Kershaw in the pocket?????
Re: Kershaw in the pocket?????
Jerry & Dale,
I was in Cabela's today and they had a sale on the Kershaw Blur. They had one left at $39.99. It's the sandvik 14c28n blade steel. A black one, with tiger stripe on the blade. so, I now own a Blur. Seems like a good knife, I've been carrying it all day.
The darn thumb studs have some very sharp edges, so if I run my hand in my pocket, I get some pretty good scratches on my skin. Doesn't feel very good. Other than that, it's fine.

New Link came the other day. Nice weight to it, and clips point up. Not too sure about this blackwash finish, going to have to see how it holds up. I usually stay away from coated blades and stick to nice satin finishes.

Mike, I like the blade profile but what is that handle color? Is that gray?

It's gray, but it does seem to have a rosy tint to it also, even in outdoor lighting.jerryd6818 wrote:Mike, I like the blade profile but what is that handle color? Is that gray?
I can't complain, stole it for $23 shipped off eBay, NIB. It did have a slight tipped blade. looks like the blade must have dropped right on the point. Either way, it took about 15 secs on the belt sander to re-profile the edge to cover it up. I think the tanto shape made it easier, as I would have had to lose more blade if it had been a drop point.

Re: Kershaw in the pocket?????
I normally prefer a satin or even polished finish to coated on modern folders, but my blackwashed Leek has held up nicely. I've seen some well-used ones that didn't show finish loss at all, even as the blade had been sharpened down some. I'm not sure how I feel about a blackwashed blade with a satin handle like that but the all-blackwashed knives look right.

Re: Kershaw in the pocket?????
I almost always have my Kershaw Blur in my right leg pocket.
It is #1670TBLBKDZ which is the stone wash tanto blade of BDZ-1 steel.
When it gets dull it still "Kershaw sharp."

Hmm, looks like the deep-carry clip for the Leek would work perfectly for tip-up carry of that knife, too.

Re: Kershaw in the pocket?????
Why yes there is a Kershaw in my pocket .
I got this leek a couple of weeks ago to replace one I had given to a friend. He did not carry a pocket knife and I thought that was just wrong.

Re: Kershaw in the pocket?????
Just picked up a nice brand spanking new Kershaw Camber. My first and only AO knife. I got it at a fairly good price from a Knife Store (Kutter's) in Ottawa. I like to think of it as a baby ZT.
Re: Kershaw in the pocket?????
Nice Kershaws, gentlemen. I've had this Kershaw Ken Onion Blur for about 9 years. I bought it for a pitbull a friend had that at last count had ripped into 27 different people. I gave fair warning to my buddy and his wife that if that dog bites me, I would be his last. I love the vintage knives but these spring assisted Kershaws are great in tight spots.

"They" don't, but I just happen to have one that I'm selling -- the all black part serrated 7000ST (the blue on black 7000BB has already been spoken for).garddogg56 wrote:Nice Mitch do they still sell that model??
I realize that it's been almost a year since you posted that question, guarddogg, but if you're still interested, let me know.
