SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Kershaw Launch Iridium Auto in Blue is a modern automatic built for speed, precision, and everyday reliability. Designed with clean lines and premium materials, this out-the-side auto brings a bold look and high-performance edge to your EDC rotation. With the press of a button, the Launch Iridium deploys with authority, locking up solid and ready for action. It’s compact enough for pocket carry but has the reach and control for demanding tasks—at home, in the shop, or out in the field.
The 3.45-inch spear point blade is crafted from CPM Magnacut, a high-end stainless steel that offers a rare balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. The stonewash finish adds a rugged touch, hiding wear while reducing glare, and the symmetrical spear point design excels in piercing, slicing, and precise control. Whether you're cutting rope, breaking down boxes, or handling finer tasks, this blade holds its own.
Kershaw pairs that performance steel with a strong, lightweight 6061-T6 aluminum handle, anodized in a striking blue. The smooth contours and slim profile make it comfortable in hand and quick to draw from the pocket. A reliable button lock ensure safe operation and confident grip, while the handle’s construction stands up to hard use without adding unnecessary weight.
At 4.55 inches closed and weighing just 3.10 ounces, the Launch Iridium carries light but works hard. The reversible, tip-up pocket clip makes everyday carry practical and accessible, whether you're left- or right-handed. Kershaw's automatic action is fast, clean, and built with the same precision that defines their American-made Launch series.
This knife is the result of smart engineering and premium materials packed into a sleek and fast-deploying form. Made for real-world use and built to last, the Launch Iridium Auto is ready to go wherever your day takes you. Order it today from SMKW!
