The Kuro represents a thoughtful marriage of form and function—a knife that performs as well as it looks.
Blade Design and Performance
The blade is an Americanized tanto configuration featuring partial serration along the cutting edge. This hybrid approach gives you the best of both worlds: a sharp, straight edge for clean slicing and serrated sections that excel at cutting fibrous materials. The drop-point geometry provides excellent piercing capability and structural strength, making the Kuro equally at home in the field or at the workbench.
Steel and Durability
8Cr13MoV stainless steel forms the blade core—a proven alloy that balances edge-holding capability with corrosion resistance. The black-oxide coating adds an extra layer of protection against the elements while enhancing the knife's distinctive appearance.
Rapid Deployment
Speed matters when you need a blade in hand. Kershaw's assisted-opening mechanism, activated by the built-in flipper, delivers fast, reliable deployment with a single hand. The flipper is ambidextrous, making the Kuro equally accessible to left-handed and right-handed users.
Handle and Carry
Glass-filled nylon scales provide a lightweight yet durable handle that maintains dimensional stability across temperature extremes. The textured pattern on the scales offers genuine grip traction and distinctive visual appeal. A 3-position pocket clip allows you to carry the knife at your preferred angle and depth.
The Kuro is a no-nonsense tool that refuses to compromise on either performance or style.
