Product Description
The Kershaw Launch 17 7951 is an automatic folding knife with a 3.5-inch S35VN blade. It is part of the Kershaw Launch series. The blade is a clip point with a plain edge, and it is 0.12 inch thick.
Opening and locking both run through a push button. Press it and the blade fires open. The same button releases the lock when you are ready to close the knife. The blade carries a black Cerakote finish, and the steel is hardened to 60-62. The handle is gray 6061-T6 aluminum.
Size and carry
Overall length is 8.45 inches with the blade open. Closed, the knife measures 4.95 inches and weighs 3.1 oz. That is a manageable size for a pocket or a belt. Kershaw builds this model in the USA.
This knife fits someone who wants a one-hand automatic for daily tasks like opening boxes, cutting cord and general utility work. The clip point gives you a fine tip for detail cuts. Check your local and state laws on automatic knives before you carry one.
For gear, a good sharpening stone or system keeps S35VN in shape. A compact flashlight and a multitool make a solid everyday carry set. A sturdy belt or a pocket organizer helps keep the knife where you can reach it.
