When precision, speed, and reliability matter, the Kershaw Auto Launch 21 delivers. Designed for serious everyday carry and tactical use, this automatic knife combines high-performance materials with dependable function and a sleek, low-profile aesthetic. Proudly made in the USA, the Auto Launch 21 is built for users who demand strength and subtlety in a compact form.
At the core of this knife is a 3.05" clip point blade crafted from premium CPM M4 steel. Known for its exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. The blade wears a rugged black working finish that helps mask scratches and hard use over time, while adding a no-nonsense, tactical look to the overall profile.
The automatic push-button deployment is fast, smooth, and secure, offering one-handed operation when it matters most. Whether you're opening boxes, slicing rope, or handling precision cutting tasks, the Auto Launch 21 is ready in an instant with a simple press of the button.
The handle combines flat dark earth (FDE) G-10 scales with a black aluminum backspacer and matching hardware, giving the knife a clean, two-tone look that stands out without screaming for attention. G-10 provides a sure grip in all conditions—wet or dry—while remaining lightweight and incredibly tough. A black tip-up pocket clip allows for discreet and comfortable carry, making this knife as easy to carry as it is to deploy.
Measuring 4.2" closed and 7.25" overall, the Auto Launch 21 offers a balanced feel in hand while weighing in at only 2.6 ounces. It's light enough to forget it's there—until you need it. Built with attention to detail and American craftsmanship, this knife is a reliable addition to any EDC rotation or duty gear.
The Kershaw Auto Launch 21 blends modern materials, proven performance, and made-in-the-USA pride into one sleek, hard-working package. Order it today from SMKW!
