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.

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.
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.

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.

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.
Dangit, Jerry. You are the worst influence. My momma told me 'bout fellers like you...

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.

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.

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).
I realize that it's been almost a year since you posted that question, guarddogg, but if you're still interested, let me know.
