The Kershaw Bareknuckle DuraLock brings premium blade steel, smooth manual action, and a rugged earth-tone finish to a capable everyday carry folder. Designed for everyday and work use, this Bareknuckle combines a tough Dark Earth aluminum handle with a blackwashed CPM MagnaCut blade for a practical knife that looks as ready for the job as it is to handle it.
The 3.5-inch modified sheepsfoot blade is made from CPM MagnaCut stainless steel, giving the Bareknuckle an excellent balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The plain edge provides a versatile cutting surface for opening packages, cutting cord, breaking down cardboard, and handling other everyday tasks. A blackwash finish adds a subdued, well-worn appearance while helping disguise the marks that naturally come with regular use. At 0.121 inches thick, the blade offers a solid balance of strength and cutting performance without adding unnecessary weight.
Kershaw equips the Bareknuckle with manual KVT ball bearings for smooth, controlled deployment. The thumb stud provides a familiar and efficient opening method, while the DuraLock system secures the blade in place during use. The modified sheepsfoot profile offers a practical cutting edge with a useful tip, making this folder a versatile choice for everyday carry and work environments.
The Dark Earth aluminum handle gives the Bareknuckle a rugged, understated appearance that pairs naturally with the blackwashed blade. The aluminum construction keeps the knife lightweight while providing a durable platform for daily use. Measuring 0.45 inches thick, the handle offers a comfortable grip without creating excessive pocket bulk.
At 4.74 inches closed and 8.24 inches overall, the Bareknuckle gives you a useful 3.5-inch blade in a practical package. Its 3.4-ounce weight makes it easy to carry throughout the day, whether you're working around the house, heading to the jobsite, or simply looking for a dependable blade for everyday chores.
For flexible carry, the Bareknuckle features a reversible extra-deep-carry pocket clip that supports right- or left-handed, tip-up carry. The deep-carry design helps keep the knife discreet in your pocket while allowing you to configure it around your preferred carry style.
With its premium MagnaCut blade, Dark Earth aluminum handle, blackwash finish, smooth KVT action, and DuraLock system, the Kershaw Bareknuckle delivers dependable performance in a rugged everyday package.
