Product Description

The Kershaw Launch 23 7305 is a sleek, lightweight automatic knife that combines a streamlined design with premium materials and fast push-button deployment. Designed and made in the USA, the Launch 23 features a 3.3-inch CPM 154 stainless steel blade and a black anodized aluminum handle for a durable, lightweight package.

The trailing-point blade features a black Cerakote finish with satin-finished grinds, giving the knife a distinctive two-tone appearance. CPM 154 is a premium stainless steel known for its combination of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance.

The 6061-T6 aluminum handle is black anodized and features machined grooves that provide texture while maintaining the Launch 23's clean, minimalist appearance. A low-profile push button provides automatic blade deployment, while the reversible deep-carry pocket clip allows for convenient left- or right-handed carry.

Automatic Push-Button Deployment

The Launch 23 uses a push-button automatic mechanism for quick, one-handed blade deployment. The push button releases the blade from its locked position, allowing the automatic mechanism to open the knife.

CPM 154 Trailing-Point Blade

The 3.3-inch CPM 154 stainless steel blade features a trailing-point profile and a distinctive black Cerakote finish with satin grinds. The blade design provides a generous cutting belly while the premium steel offers a well-rounded combination of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance.

Lightweight Aluminum Handle

The 6061-T6 aluminum handle is black anodized and features machined grooves for added texture. The lightweight construction keeps the Launch 23 easy to carry while maintaining a solid, durable feel.

Deep-Carry Pocket Clip

The Launch 23 includes a reversible deep-carry pocket clip that can be configured for left- or right-handed carry. Its low-profile design keeps the knife securely positioned while maintaining the Launch 23's streamlined appearance.
