Kai USA is probably one of the most reputable knife manufacturers in the world, and their flagship Kershaw knives brands have a solid reputation of being manufactured to the highest standards. As a result, millions of people around the world have become loyal fans, but this also means that they have a high level of expectation when they purchase a Kershaw knife. If you've had the opportunity to inspect a Kershaw Blur knife, then you'll no doubt have noticed just how much attention has been paid to detail in order to make the knife aesthetically appealing, while at the same time ensuring that its quality and effectiveness is in no way compromised.
The vast majority of Kershaw knives tend to have a naturally shaped handle, but the new Kershaw Blur sports a much flatter and sleeker design. In order to accommodate this, they have used a special tape on the grip so that the knife can still be handled effectively without having to worry about it slipping out of the hand.
The knife handle is light and durable since it is made from anodized aluminum-the same type of metal that is used for building airplanes. The approximate weight of the Kershaw Blur is about 4.2 oz which is impressive when one considers that the knife is about 4.5 inches long.
The blade is made from stainless steel thereby making it strong and resilient against corrosion. The knife is shipped with the blade already sharpened so you will not need to do that on your own. When compared to other knives used in similar conditions, the sharpened blade of a Kershaw Blur retains its sharpness for a much longer duration.
One of the things that some Kershaw die-hards might have a problem with when it comes to the Kershaw Blur might be the integration of a thumb-stud as opposed to the usual trigger. Strictly speaking, this in itself might not be a problem and the main issue here would likely be the discomfort experienced Kershaw knife veterans that might have gotten used to the trigger now having to contend with this new mechanism.
Kershaw die-hards will also be pleased to discover that the Speed Safe concept has been retained, and so has the ability to open the knife with just a single hand.
One thing to bear in mind however is that even though the knife blade has been manufactured from stainless steel, under certain circumstances and conditions a certain amount of rust could end up accumulating, but unless the knife to spends most of its life in a very humid environment, there's not much chance that this will ever happen.
Rather than limiting buyers with regards to color, the manufacturers have made the knives available in black, gray, and red. Depending on where you purchase your knife, you can expect to pay in the region of $60 to $65, and they can be purchased online or from your local store. - 31499
