Kershaw Launch 11 Automatic Knife Stonewash Reverse Tanto/Raw Aluminum AUKS7550RAW

The Kershaw Launch 11 Automatic Knife is a compact, fast-deploying cutting tool built for performance, durability, and sleek everyday carry. Its streamlined design and premium materials make it a dependable companion whether you’re tackling daily tasks or adding a precision-built automatic to your collection.

The blade measures 2.75” and is crafted from 154CM stainless steel, a high-performance steel known for excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. Its reverse tanto profile offers a strong, reinforced tip for piercing tasks while maintaining a long, straight cutting edge that excels at controlled slicing. A rugged stonewash finish gives the blade a hardworking look while helping hide wear from repeated use.

Deployment is quick and effortless thanks to its out-the-side automatic action. A push button mechanism opens the blade instantly and also locks it securely in place during use, delivering the fast, reliable performance automatic knife fans expect from the Launch series.

The handles are constructed from raw aluminum, sometimes referred to as natural clear aluminum. This finish uses a protective, colorless anodized coating that strengthens corrosion resistance and durability while preserving the aluminum’s natural metallic appearance. The result is a clean, industrial look paired with long-lasting protection. A distinctive handle cutout reduces weight and adds visual appeal while improving overall balance in hand.

An ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip allows for versatile carry, keeping the knife secure and accessible. Measuring 3.8” closed and weighing just 2.1 ounces, the Launch 11 is exceptionally lightweight while still delivering the solid feel of a well-built automatic.

Smoky Mountain Knife Works, the world's best online knife store, stands as a true Tennessee landmark and the world's largest knife store. Located in the Great Smoky Mountains, its legendary showroom draws more than 1.5 million visitors each year who come to experience one of the most impressive knife destinations anywhere.

Proudly made in the USA, the Launch 11 represents Kershaw’s commitment to precision manufacturing and modern automatic knife design.
