The Kershaw Leek Blackwash is a slim EDC frame lock knife with a grey stonewash finish on the handle scales and blade. The blade steel used is the high-performance 14C28N steel, which can be resharpened easily and impresses with its very good durability and hardness. The blade opens in a flash with the flipper or the thumb pin thanks to the spring support and is held in position by the solid frame lock. The knife can be carried inconspicuously in the trouser pocket with the convertible deep-carry clip, making it a practical everyday companion you can rely on.

Kershaw was founded in Portland, Oregon in 1974. Many well-known knife designers such as Ken Onion from Hawaii, Grant Hawk and his son Gavin, Launce Barber and others develop interesting knives for Kershaw. Some models come with Ken Onion's SpeedSafe mechanism, which manually raises the blade slightly, then a spring ensures the blade opens in a flash.
