Looking for a durable and stylish everyday carry knife? Meet the Kershaw Leek!
Crafted by world-renowned custom knife maker Ken Onion, the Kershaw Leek is designed to be the perfect EDC with a 3-inch Sandvik 14C28N steel blade and a reliable frame lock. The burnished stonewash finish of the blade provides a unique style that you'll be proud to display.
In a pinch, it's easy to engage the blade with one hand using the flipper or thumb stud, and the pocket clip allows for tip-up carry. Plus, the SpeedSafe assisted opening system ensures you'll always have quick access to your trusty blade.
The Leek is made in the USA for peace of mind.
For a partially serrated blade, choose the 1660ST Leek. Like other "Onion" knives, the Leek features the SpeedSafe ambidextrous assisted opening system.
