Description
The Kershaw Launch 4 folder features a 1.90" CPM 154 stainless blade, clip point, plain edge, aluminum handle, black finish.
Stainless scales are durable and easy to clean, though heavier than polymer.
At under two and a half inches this is a compact everyday carry knife: light in the pocket, unobtrusive, and legal to carry in more places than a larger blade.
Carry laws are set locally as well as by state, and a 1.9" blade is legal to carry in many places and not in others – check your state and city rules before you carry it. Knives ship directly to you with no FFL transfer and no background check, unlike a firearm.
The Launch 4's blade is high-performance CPM154 steel. This powdered metallurgy steel has more uniform distribution of carbides, so it takes and holds an excellent edge, provides good corrosion resistance, wear resistance and toughness. Then to lighten the Launch 4's weight, Kershaw made the handle and integrated backspacer of durable aluminum, anodized in black. The Launch 4 opens with a push button, recessed so that it is level with the flat of the handle. This is a safety feature and makes it harder for the knives to accidentally deploy. For left-handed use, press the blade-release/lock button with your index finger instead of your thumb. The Launch 4 has a single-position pocket clip and carries tip-up. Made in the USA.
