The Kershaw Leek Blue & Black Gradient brings together striking style, innovative design, and cutting-edge materials in a sleek everyday carry knife that’s built to impress. Proudly made in the USA and designed by legendary knifemaker Ken Onion, this version of the Leek updates one of Kershaw’s most iconic models with premium steel and a bold new look, making it an ideal blend of function and flair.
At the heart of the knife is a 3-inch Wharncliffe blade crafted from CPM MagnaCut stainless steel, one of the most advanced steels available today. Known for its superb balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness, MagnaCut elevates this Leek to new heights in everyday performance. The blade’s Wharncliffe profile adds precision for detail work, giving you a fine point and straight edge that excels in slicing, utility cuts, and general day-to-day use. The stonewash finish enhances the steel’s rugged beauty while helping to hide scratches from heavy use.
Kershaw’s SpeedSafe assisted opening system ensures fast, reliable deployment with a simple push of the ambidextrous thumb studs. Whether you're opening the knife with your left or right hand, the action is smooth, snappy, and satisfying. Once open, the frame lock keeps the blade securely in place, giving you the confidence to tackle everything from opening packages to cutting cord or breaking down boxes.
The standout blue and black gradient aluminum handle gives this Leek a visual edge as sharp as its blade. The lightweight anodized aluminum offers excellent durability while keeping the knife’s weight at just 3 ounces—light enough for all-day carry without compromise. The smooth contours of the handle make it comfortable in the hand, and the color fade adds a modern twist that sets it apart from the crowd.
Measuring 4 inches closed and 7 inches overall, the Leek is compact enough to ride easily in your pocket but ready to work when you need it. The pocket clip can be positioned for either tip-up or tip-down carry, allowing you to customize it to your personal preference. A lanyard hole gives you even more options for everyday carry, adding flexibility for those who prefer to attach a fob or keep their knife easily accessible.
This knife is proudly American-made, engineered with attention to detail and high-performance materials that are built to last. Whether you're a collector, a gear enthusiast, or just someone who appreciates a high-quality tool, the Kershaw Leek Blue & Black Gradient delivers a level of style and substance that’s hard to beat.
