Description
The Kershaw 8760 Faultline folder features a 3" 8Cr13MoV stainless blade, clip point, plain edge, black finish.
The blade is 8Cr13MoV SS, a budget-friendly Chinese stainless that sharpens easily and resists rust well, though it needs touching up more often than premium steels. Stainless scales are durable and easy to clean, though heavier than polymer.
Around three inches is the everyday carry sweet spot – long enough for boxes, cord, food prep and general utility, short enough to disappear in a pocket.
Carry laws are set locally as well as by state, and a 3.0" 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. Keep the blade dry and the pivot clean, and touch the edge up on a strop or fine stone before it gets properly dull – it is far less work than bringing back a blunt edge.
Everything about the Faultline says practical, reliable and sturdy. This right-sized knife fits comfortably in the hand but offers a bigger blade than you might expect. The broad blade provides efficient slicing while the clipped point delivers good piercing capability. Made of 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, the Faultline's blade is black-oxide coated for a tactical look while adding an extra layer of corrosion protection. Heavy jimping on the blade back adds additional grip. The handle is olive drab glass-filled nylon with a rubberized, super-grippy and textured overmold. Kershaw adds an inset liner lock, which provides the blade-lockup security of a locking liner with less bulk and at a lighter weight. The knife opens with a flipper and with their KVT ball-bearing opening system. A single-position, deep-carry pocket clip ensures the knife rides securely inside your pocket.
