Kershaw

A Cut above the rest

Kershaw patents and expertly designs award-winning technologies and uses advanced materials to skillfully craft and engineer fast action, durable and reliable knives.

Kershaw Leek

One of the most popular of Kershaw knife series, the Leek, has a slim, versatile, modified drop-point blade with good slicing capabilities. The high performing blade steels sharpen to a razor edge and hold the edge for a extended use. The three-inch blade is perfect for most tasks and the slim tip allows the knife to excel at piercing and detail work. SpeedSafe Assisted Opening allows for easy blade deployment with the use of a simple pull back on the ambidextrous flipper. The variety of colors are fade-resistant, scratch-resistant and permanently bonded to the anodized aluminum handle.

Steel Type

Sandvik 14C28N steel is a high-performance steel with increased nitrogen in the formula for excellent corrosion resistance and hardness. The overall highest performing knife steel in the world that still maintains the productivity benefit of being fine-blankable, 14C28N steel is ideal for knife applications which place high demands on edge sharpness, edge stability and corrosion resistance.

Blade Finish

Kershaw’s Bead-Blasted finish enhances a knife’s aesthetics and complements its end-use. The high-tech finish is achieved by applying a mixture of fine media onto the blade’s steel under high pressure, creating a smooth, non-reflective matte surface. Fine media includes glass and aluminum oxide beads that allow color variation and optimal performance results for an overall stunning effect.

Locking

With two steel plates, or liners, on the inside of each handle scale, the liner locking system safely secures the blade open and prevents unwanted blade closure. The lockbar butts up against the blade’s backend to prevent closure, and angles or is bent towards the blade tang creating a bias locked position. Apply manual force to move the lockbar to the side and fold the blade back into the handle.

Opening

Using a torsion bar to move the blade out of the handle, Kershaw’s revolutionary SpeedSafe Assisted Opening system enables smooth, secure, fast one-handed blade deployment. Apply manual pressure to the flipper or thumb stud with a light push or pull back to overcome resistance of the torsion bar, and the blade opens smoothly and locks into place for confident handling without premature closure.

Product Description

Experience Kershaw’s classic bestseller, the Ken Onion Leek, now in the camo hunting series version. Doubling as both a collectible and the ideal everyday carry, the Camo Leek will help properly initiate the entire family into outdoor hunting, fishing and camping.

5.0 out of 5 stars I fianally got my Kershaw Leek!!!
Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2020

I ordered the Leek on 4-22, received a package on 4-27, but it was not my Leek. My name was on the package but the invoice inside and the knife were for a gentleman in Florida. I was able to contact him and found out that he got my Leek, as I got his Cold Steel Crawford.
I was able to straighten this out with Amazon and today, 4-7-20, I got the Leek and a prepaid envelope to send back the Crawford.
I was able to talk to the gentleman in Fla and text also. We have become friends and are loyal and dedicated knife collecters. It is nice to talk to another person who understands what drives collecters and users of knives. When I tell a close friend have a knife collection, they say, Really? Nice. And that is it. The gentleman in Fla and I talked about different brands, blade sharpness, the weather in Utah and Florida and etc. It wa s fun.
The Leek I ordered was my second Leek. The first one was all staianless and I felt too slippery in my hand so I gave it to my son. The one I got today is the Camo colored an d doesn't feel slippery in the hand.
The Leek is, in my oppinion, about the best EDC knife out there. This one will become my main EDC. I also have a Buck Vantage and I really like that kinfe, so I will be alternating these two knives as EDC.
The Kershaw Leek is just a beuatiful and sharp as heck knife. It is light, fast deployment and just all around a good knife. I highly recommend the Kershaw Leek. I own 10 Kershaws knives and love them all.

5.0 out of 5 stars LINER LOCK
Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2019
Verified Purchase
Note that this is a LINER LOCK knife and not a frame lock, as described in the heading.
This is my fourth leek knife puchase.
Own three / gave one away as Christmas gift.
This anodized aluminum handle version represents best value for money.
Camo print is a little cheesy, as another reviewer noted.
But this is Kershaw quality and made in USA. Great EDC "gentleman's " knife.
The version with the stainless steel handle (1660) is the sturdier one of the two, has a frame lock,
and worth the extra money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for every day carry.
Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2018

Love this knife for every day carry. It's ideal for light to medium duty chores. Out of the box the blade was razor sharp.

The assisted opening feature is great. The only negative feature for me is the thumb studs are small and set close to the handle which makes it difficult to use. I use the flipper pull back on the back of the knife, works great.

5.0 out of 5 stars This colors textured outside is great
Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2022
Verified Purchase
The textured paint on this model, for me, puts it heads above the all-metal and therefore slick versions of this same knife. I didn't care for the knife on a personal level but can see why it is so popular. Ultimately decided to return it for above reason and the fact that I felt it was overpriced for the grade of steel that it is, but, if you know you like this knife then I would recommend it in this paint/color selection

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Sharp Knife
Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2020
Verified Purchase
I was very excited to get this knife and the sharpness didn't disappoint. I will say after a couple days of in and out of my pocket the finish is already starting to wear off. Disappointing to say the least. I am sure everything else about the knife will be Kershaw worthy but can't say I would purchase this finish again.
