Kershaw Knives

Kershaw belongs to the Japanese Kai group and has been building knives in Oregon since 1974. The brand is best known for putting assisted opening into the hands of normal buyers, most famously with the Leek and the Blur.

What you get is a lot of knife for the money. Many models are made in the USA, others abroad, and the range covers everything from slim office folders to hunting and outdoor blades.
