Kershaw Analyst 3.25in Partially Serrated Blackwash Tanto

When you need a knife that works as hard as you do, the Kershaw Analyst is ready to deliver. Built for everyday, outdoor, and work use, this folder blends utility with tactical style, giving you dependable performance in a streamlined design. From the field to the job site, it’s engineered for fast deployment, solid cutting power, and a secure grip, so you can handle any cutting task with confidence.

At the heart of the Analyst is a 3.25-inch tanto blade crafted from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, chosen for its strength, corrosion resistance, and edge retention. The partially serrated edge makes quick work of rope, cord, and tougher materials while still providing a clean slicing section for precision tasks. Finished with Kershaw’s signature BlackWash coating, the blade not only looks rugged but also hides scratches and wear, ensuring it keeps that hardworking, battle-tested look for years to come.

Kershaw’s SpeedSafe assisted opening mechanism makes blade deployment smooth and quick with just a nudge on the flipper. The Analyst opens confidently with one hand, locking firmly into place with a reliable liner lock. When it’s time to close, it’s just as simple—safe, efficient, and fast, whether you’re wearing gloves or not.

The handle is built from durable glass-filled nylon, textured for a sure grip and contoured for comfort. It’s lightweight yet tough, giving you control without adding bulk to your pocket or pack. At only 3.5 ounces, the Analyst won’t weigh you down, but it’ll always be ready when you need it most. The all-black handle pairs seamlessly with the darkened blade finish, giving this knife a tactical edge that looks as good as it performs.

Kershaw didn’t stop at functionality—they made sure the Analyst fits your carry style perfectly. The deep-carry pocket clip can be positioned four ways: right or left, tip-up or tip-down, so you can customize it to your preference. With steel hardware and precise construction throughout, every detail is built for long-term reliability and strength.

Whether you’re cutting through boxes, working outdoors, or tackling heavy-duty chores, the Analyst delivers precision and confidence every time. It’s designed to be your go-to folder—dependable, fast, and built to last. And because it’s engravable, you can make it uniquely yours or turn it into a practical, personalized gift for someone who appreciates quality craftsmanship.
