Kershaw Flatbed BlackWash Tanto Steel Inlaid Black GFN Assisted Liner Lock Flipper 1376

Part of the Kershaw Starter Series line, the Kershaw Flatbed is all about getting the job done while having a little fun in the process. A practical, budget friendly flipper designed with hard use and daily carry in mind, the Flatbed offers plenty of style with an angular BlackWash finished American Tanto blade and practical black GFN scales with geometric steel inlay on the front.

Brand new, direct from Kershaw.

Blade: SpeedSafe assist makes ambidextrous flipper deployment fast and reliable on the 8Cr13MoV stainless steel blade. The American Tanto profile pairs a durable flat ground point with a deep hollow grind for excellent utility performance while the tumbled BlackWash finish hides wear and make the knife discreet in use. Stylized milling on the spine pulls double duty as traction jimping.

Handle: BlackWash stainless steel liners support tough, lightweight GFN polymer scales with molded texture and a geometric steel overlay providing style and added traction. The steel liner lock is smooth, reliable, and easy to operate while the semi-open construction reduces weight while protecting the blade. A generous hole allows for lanyard attachment.

Carries via a reversible stainless steel deep carry clip.

8Cr13MoV: Similar to Japanese AUS-8, 8Cr13MoV is a low carbon, high chromium stainless steel with a good balance of toughness and strength. It offers good corrosion resistance and takes a razor sharp edge with ease. Edge holding is relatively low.
