Kershaw Antic 8710 Keychain Folding Knife
Kershaw's Antic combines a 1.75" drop-point blade with a clever ring design that doubles as a screwdriver, pry bar, and bottle opener. Frame lock, thumb stud, pocket clip.
The Kershaw Antic: Form Meets Function
The Kershaw Antic reimagines the keychain knife by combining practical cutting capability with genuine multi-tool functionality. This is not a gimmick—it's thoughtful design that works.
Blade and Steel
The 1.75-inch blade features 8Cr13MoV stainless steel with a bead-blasted finish, providing a clean aesthetic and reliable edge retention. The drop-point profile balances cutting performance with everyday practicality.
The Distinctive Ring Design
The oversized ring is the Antic's signature feature. It serves multiple purposes:
- Enhanced Grip: Slide your pinkie through the ring for a karambit-style grip that improves control and comfort
- Keychain Attachment: Easily attach the knife to your keyring or use as a lanyard point
- Integrated Tools: The ring's flat end functions as both a screwdriver and mini prybar, while the back handle features a bottle opener positioned to avoid interfering with your grip
Practical Design
Unlike aggressive self-defense knives, the Antic offers a casual, pocket-friendly format suitable for everyday carry. The frame lock provides secure blade retention, while the thumb stud enables smooth one-handed opening. The single-position pocket clip (right tip-down) keeps the knife accessible and secure.
