Kershaw Launch 5 Auto Emerson Design Blue Handle DLC Blade 7600BLUBLK
EMERSON DESIGN MEETS KERSHAW AUTO-MAGIC
An exciting new entry in Kershaw's automatic series is the Launch 5. Designed by Emerson and USA-built by Kershaw, this handsome auto takes Emerson’s tactical looks to the next level of refinement.
The Launch 5's CPM154 powdered metallurgy blade steel offers more uniform distribution of carbides—so it takes and holds an excellent edge. It also provides good corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and toughness. The blade is black DLC coated for extra corrosion resistance and anti reflective good looks.
To lighten the Launch 5's weight, the handles and integrated backspacer are made of durable blue anodized aluminum. A machined texture on the handles provides a secure grip. The Launch 5 opens with a push button, recessed so that it is level with the flat of the handle. This is a safety feature and makes it harder for the knives to accidentally deploy. Left-handers can use their index finger instead of their thumb to press the blade-release/lock button. A reversible pocket clip is included and a lanyard tie-off is built into the butt end of the knife. These are quite possibly the best bang for the buck USA Made automatic knives available today.
