The Misdirect is part of Kershaw's popular Starter Series, offering exceptional value without compromising on quality. Its 2.9-inch blade is ideal for all your everyday cutting tasks. The reverse tanto style ensures precision piercing cuts, making it effortless to slice through tough packaging and open mail.
Featuring a black-oxide coated and BlackWash finished blade, the Misdirect not only looks attractive but can also conceal any unintended scratches. Opening this capable blade is a breeze thanks to Kershaw's renowned SpeedSafe assisted opening system. The efficient flipper doubles as a fingerguard for added safety when the knife is open.
Crafted with a stainless steel handle, the Misdirect exudes a smooth and modern aesthetic. Its non-reflective matte finish, achieved through bead-blasting, adds a touch of elegance to this reliable tool. To maintain its clean and minimalistic style, the Kershaw logo is lasered onto the handle instead of the blade.
The Misdirect offers convenient versatility with its 3-position pocketclip, allowing for right or left-handed tip-up or tip-down carry options. Additionally, a textured backspacer seamlessly transitions into a practical lanyard hole at the end of the handle.
With its unbeatable combination of value, style, and performance, the Misdirect is the perfect choice for those looking to enter the knife world without breaking the bank.
