K1560BW: Whirlwind Spring Assisted Knife Blackwashed
Kershaw Knives

Get your hands on a Kershaw Whirlwind knife and you won't want to let go. The Whirlwind knife will be your constant everyday companion whether you're on the jobsite, working in the garage, or doing chores around the house. The first thing you'll notice is how this big handful of a knife nestles into your palm.

The ergonomic design and the tough, glass-filled nylon handle scales provide a grip that's comfortable, secure, and ensures that you're always in control of the cut. Next, of course, you'll want to try out the razor-sharp blade. Just push on the thumbstud and--twack!--the SpeedSafe assisted opening mechanism moves the blade out of the handle and locks ir securely in the open position, ready for use.

The blade is a classic drop-point, perfect for handling a wide range of tasks--pretty much anything you care to throw at it. The blade steel is high-performance 14C28N. Developed in a partnership between Kershaw and Sandvik Steel, it offers excellent corrosion resistance, hardness, and edge retention. In fact, Sandvik considers this the highest-performance steel available that can still be fine-blanked. We would have to agree. But the only way you're going to know for yourself is to get a Whirlwind of your own.
