Kershaw's Grid features a modified drop-point blade in 8Cr13MoV steel with black-oxide finish, titanium carbo-nitride handle, SpeedSafe assisted opening, and reversible carry clip.
The Grid represents a thoughtful approach to everyday carry design. Its blade geometry—a modified drop-point that echoes tanto characteristics—delivers the best of both worlds: a reinforced tip for piercing tasks and sufficient belly for efficient slicing work.
8Cr13MoV steel provides the foundation for reliable edge retention and corrosion resistance. The black-oxide coating serves dual purposes: it eliminates reflective glare and enhances the blade's resistance to rust and wear. This is practical steel for real-world use.
The handle employs a steel construction finished with a grey titanium carbo-nitride coating—a durable, attractive surface that resists wear. A frame lock secures the blade firmly during cutting tasks, providing the confidence you need when the knife is in use.
Kershaw's SpeedSafe assisted-opening system means you can deploy the blade quickly. Simply pull the flipper or push the thumbstud, and the blade opens smoothly. The reversible pocket clip accommodates both left- and right-handed carry preferences, making this knife accessible to any user.
The Grid is a capable, no-nonsense folder that handles everyday cutting tasks with competence and style.
