SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Kershaw Bel Air stands out as a sleek, high-performance folding knife built for serious everyday carry and proudly made in the USA. Lightweight, durable, and engineered for smooth operation, the Bel Air brings together premium materials and expert craftsmanship in a compact, eye-catching design.
At the core of the Bel Air is a 3.10-inch reverse tanto blade crafted from CPM MagnaCut, a steel known for its exceptional edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. The stonewash finish not only adds a rugged aesthetic but also helps hide wear from heavy use. Its reverse tanto profile combines slicing power with a strong tip, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of cutting tasks. Thumb stud deployment provides quick, reliable one-handed opening, whether you're on the job or in the field.
Built around Kershaw’s robust DuraLock mechanism, the Bel Air locks up with confidence and safety while allowing for easy blade disengagement. The handle is constructed from 6061-T6 aluminum, anodized in a bold blue for added durability and style. Its sculpted shape offers a comfortable grip without adding bulk, and the anodized finish provides excellent resistance to wear and corrosion, even in challenging environments.
Weighing in at just 2.9 ounces and measuring 4.2 inches when closed, the Bel Air is compact enough for discreet pocket carry yet large enough to handle tough tasks. The deep-carry, tip-up pocket clip ensures it rides low and stays secure, making it an ideal companion for work, outdoor adventures, or everyday utility. Precision-built in the USA, this knife reflects Kershaw's dedication to quality, innovation, and real-world performance.
From the cutting-edge MagnaCut blade to the striking blue aluminum handle, every detail of the Bel Air is engineered for those who demand more from their gear. Whether you're slicing cord, opening boxes, or tackling more demanding tasks, this knife is ready to meet the moment—stylishly and reliably. Order it today from SMKW!
