Sleek, stylish, and sharp in more ways than one, the Kershaw Leek Black Damascus is a refined folding knife that delivers everyday utility wrapped in striking design. It’s a perfect fusion of high-performance materials, smooth operation, and timeless craftsmanship—built for users who want more from their pocketknife than just function.
The 3-inch Damascus steel blade is the centerpiece of this refined tool. With its beautiful patterning and a Wharncliffe profile, this blade isn’t just visually striking—it’s made to perform. The Wharncliffe shape offers outstanding control for precision slicing, and the razor-sharp plain edge makes it ideal for everything from detailed work to everyday cutting tasks. The black finish deepens the contrast of the Damascus layers while adding a sleek tactical edge.
Kershaw’s signature SpeedSafe spring-assisted opening mechanism makes one-handed deployment smooth, fast, and reliable. Just a simple press on the ambidextrous thumb studs or blade flipper, and the Leek is ready to work. A secure linerlock keeps the blade firmly in place during use, giving you peace of mind when it counts.
The handle is crafted from lightweight yet resilient black carbon fiber, offering not only a modern look but a feather-light feel. At just 2.3 ounces, this knife disappears in the pocket without sacrificing performance. The carbon fiber’s subtle texturing offers grip without bulk, making it both functional and stylish in equal measure.
Measuring 4 inches closed and 8 inches overall when open, the Leek Black Damascus is compact enough for everyday carry but long enough to give you the cutting edge you need. A tip-down stainless steel pocket clip provides secure carry, while the built-in lanyard hole offers even more carry and customization options.
Everything about the Kershaw Leek Black Damascus speaks to thoughtful design and premium construction. It’s well-balanced in hand, quick to deploy, and ready to handle anything from opening boxes to detailed utility work. Whether you’re a seasoned knife enthusiast or looking to upgrade your everyday gear, the Leek’s performance and elegance make it a standout choice.
