It's so sad that Kershaw knives are only budget options in the US.  :-[

There they are really nice, fun and inexpensive folders with so many different features (SpeedSafe, IKBS, different blade steels, shapes, sizes, handle materials and colors, etc.) you can try almost any and every feature of modern folding knives and have a very decent collection in a few months

My favorite that I own is the OSO Sweet, I could find it at very good price. :)

(Image removed from quote.)

The ones I'd like to own are more than 30, but the CQC Series, the Chill, Whirlwind, Launch and the new Method have been on my  :drool:  sight for a long time. Their neck knives are also very sexy and decent looking.

If only Kershaw had a similar price in all countries, I'd have never gotten a Ganzo or other Chinese branded knives I'm sure of that   :rant:

I hear that percent! I love that one of mine. I got it off of Amazon for a good deal

I will post some newer pics tomorrow, but here's one to avoid, got it super cheap on amazon for like $13, but it is stupid big, heavy and the paint is slippery, I had to scuff the flipper and lock with a wire brush to make it easier to use, a beater I guess. Identity(big stupid ugly slippery heavy is what that means  :rofl:)

I have a bit of a Kershaw problem  :facepalm:

I very much like the Knockout.........  :drool: .......but I know it won't fit my carry.

Also very much like the Skyline, (semi) ordered it once, had it in hand and felt it was to small for me........bought by somebody else the same day....

Now there's a massive discount on it, and I've grown to love small & light  :facepalm:

Knockout is very light believe it or not, Will get a few pics up tomorrow, has a great wide blade and handle is pretty thin as well. Really great knife, I got amazing deal on it a few years back. Lots of people seem to like the skyline, I missed it at lower price and its just too much $ past couple of years

The Knockout is the only Kershaw I can think of that always grabs my eye, and it has for a long time.

Every review I see just makes me want it more.......BUT.....

It might be thin but it's very wide, clipped it would work, in-pocket like I have to 80% of the time.....not so much.

Looking forward to the pics  :cheers:


BTW.....the supplier where my purchases come from has the G10 model in stock.......really love the green but not so much the black blade on the regular model.  :think:

Believe it or not the identity and knockout share a very similar footprint, but that's about it, I would rate Identity a 3/10 and knockout a 9/10, when you compare them it's hard to believe the same company makes both although one is USA made and the other made in China. When you use the knockout you say damn thats a good knife, the identity you say damn thats a pos  :rofl:

I deduct 1 point from knockout cause it could use some gimping on the spine otherwise its just about perfect imo. I have a bunch more models I will post some pics of soon.

Kershaw Zing, got it on sale for $14, very slim like the Leek, and great assited action, but the thumb stud is poorly placed and unusable.

Funny how that works! :pok: :D I have the same issue with the thumb stud on my Scallion. The thumb stud is on both sides, but the handle is only notched out for right handed people, so it's hard to open with your left hand.

never knew that and I carry the black scallion from my pic above all the time, but in right pocket. this zing is impossible to use stud, its way too close to handle, sometimes I wonder how I get them so cheap until I discover the flaw.

Yeah, if you look at the two thumb studs, the right hand one actually has a groove in the handle for more room. I find it easier to just use the plunge for deployment, being left handed.
