A beauty in the mail

Kershaw began its foray into the knife business sometime during 1974. The company was originally based in Portland Oregon, but most early knives were manufactured in Japan. The first US manufacturing plant was opened in 1997 & the company currently offers knives made in the U.S., Japan, & China. Pete Kershaw (an ex Gerber salesman) started the business.

A beauty in the mail

Just got this awesome skyline in the mail today. It’s a 1760blbw model. Love this thing.
Ps, looking for an original orange skyline folder too!

First blue one I've seen. Good luck with getting an orange one. Most I've seen were pretty high priced but maybe you'll get lucky.

I got it From a dealer on the web. Only 211 made of the blue. I think he may have a orange one too, but he has to check for me Last knife I’ll buy for a while. I have only been buying for a month or so. I got all the leeks I wanted (colors) and a few that are discontinued. After I get my orange skyline, only one I want is a Damascus skyline.
