Kershaw Launch 9
The Launch 9 delivers compact automatic performance with an under-2-inch blade that's appropriate in situations where larger knives might seem aggressive. This refined design has a gentleman's knife appeal but remains a working tool. The drop-point blade in CPM 154 steel features a BlackWash finish to hide scuffs and scratches from daily use. CPM 154 provides excellent edge retention with good corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and toughness. Matte gray anodized aluminum handle offers everyday good looks with push-button deployment and release. Integrated backspacer includes a lanyard hole for paracord attachment. Reversible pocket clip carries left or right, tip-up. Built for users who want automatic convenience in a compact, less intimidating package that still delivers serious cutting performance.
