Kershaw 1870 Knockout

Kershaw 1870 Knockout

"The Knockout features Kershaw's Sub-Frame Lock. What that means is that Kershaw has ""knocked out"" a piece of the machined aluminum frame and attached a stainless-steel plate in its place. It's this steel plate that moves behind the knife blade to lock it open safely and very securely. Yet because only part of the knife handle or frame is steel the Knockout can maintain its fighting weight and still provide a strong frame lock. You get a knife that's big yet lightweight enough to carry every day.

Then there's the blade itself. It's a modified drop point in high-performance Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel with a stonewashed finish. It offers excellent corrosion resistance and harden-ability. The finish provides extra protection against rust too. The Knockout is equipped with SpeedSafe assisted opening for smooth and easy one-handed opening. Pull back on the built-in flipper or push on the thumbstud and the blade moves out of the handle quickly and easily.

The Knockout also comes with a deep-carry pocketclip so the knife can sit all the way down in your pocket. Even better the handle is drilled for 4-position carry. Lightweight and versatile the Knockout is destined to be your favorite every day carrying knife.
