Kershaw Leek Green/Red/Black Splatter 14C28N Blackwash Spring Assisted Knife (3.00" Blade) 1660NTR

This Kershaw Leek pairs a Green/Red/Black Splatter aluminum handle with a blackwash 14C28N Wharncliffe blade. It is a pocket-size assisted folder made for slicing and fine point work.

• 14C28N Blackwash Blade - A blackwash finish gives the hollow ground modified Wharncliffe a dark, well-worn look that suits the splatter handle. Sandvik 14C28N takes a scary-sharp edge and resharpens fast, though premium powder steels can go a bit longer between touch-ups.
• Green/Red/Black Splatter Handle - Green, red, and black splatter covers the handle in a pattern that stands out on a desk, a dash, or a workbench. A steel liner runs underneath to carry the lock and stiffen the frame without adding bulk to the slim profile.
• SpeedSafe Assisted Opening - Push the flipper tab or either thumb stud, and the SpeedSafe torsion bar takes over and drives the blade the rest of the way open. Thumb studs on both sides let either hand start the action, so it opens fast with just one hand.

The Kershaw Leek

Ken Onion designed the Kershaw Leek as a slim, quick-opening folder, and it remains one of the most recognizable knives the brand builds. It runs on SpeedSafe, the assisted opening system Onion developed, which carries the blade open once your thumb or finger starts it. The handle stays narrow and flat, and a reversible clip lets it ride tip-up or tip-down. The Leek is known for its slender, needle-tipped blade, which reaches into tight spots like the seam of a stubborn blister pack.
