KershawBlur,Black Serrated(1670BLKST); Folding Knife with All-Black Body,Partially Serrated 3.4” 14C28N Steel Blade,Anodized Aluminum Handle with Trac-Tec Grip,Reversible Pock lip; 3.9OZ

For the money you will be hard pressed to find a better knife. The assist opening works great. This is really nice knife! I own a lot of higher end knives like Benchmade, Spyderco, Bradford, Fox, etc. This one is half the price of the others but works just as well.

Great knife! Sturdy, sharp and priced well. I paid twice this amount in a local store and saw them on here so I bought one for a friend at a bargain. It goes with me everywhere and then I bought another for the car.

Kershaw is such a good brand. Very durable, feels amazing in your hand. Nice smooth action for the blade. Overall a solid product.

I've owned a Kershaw Blur for nearly three years now. I work in a blue collar trade and carry/use my knife everyday. This knife get so much carry time and use that the aluminum scales are beginning to wear down and scallop where the knife rubs against my pants pocket. That's not a bad thing; just a testament to this knifes ability to last a long time.My Blur holds a edge reasonably well, sharpens very easily, has had very few issues with the pocket clip (the weak link with most pocket knives), and the assist open/frame lock have functioned flawlessly.If you're looking for an excellent daily use pocket knife then look no further. The Kershaw Blur is the knife for you.

I have been looking for a pocket knife that my hands could open AND close. (I have arthritis in my hands/fingers and my thumb joints have collapsed making my thumbs somewhat useless. I offer this information in case it helps someone determine if this knife might be right for him or her.)After a lot of reading and comparing of knives, I decided to try the Kershaw Blur partially serrated folding knife. Here are features I like and reasons this knife has proven to be the right choice for me. (1) The Kershaw brand has a well-earned solid reputation. (2) The knife appears well made and matches the listed specs. (3) The blade is sharp!(4) The knife is a good weight. I found some knives too heavy in my pocket or on my waistband or belt. (5) The handle portion of the knife is "roughed up" or textured so that I can get and keep a good grip on the knife, lessening the risk of a sharp knife slipping through wet hands.(6) The knife is pretty easy for me to open, but not quite as easy as I would like. I can't get my fingers to master the one-handed speed open. I have to use both hands to hold the knife while pulling the blade out. That said, yes it takes both my hands, but I can readily/easily pull the blade out without cutting myself.(7) For me, here is the knife's selling point: my ability to close the knife easily. I have found lots of knives relatively easy to open, but nearly impossible to close because they require strong thumbs. This Kershaw knife does require me to move a bar like thing with my thumb as I push on the back of the blade. I have found this bar easy to move as I simultaneously push on the blade. The blade releases from its locked position and then I can finish closing the knife. I can close the blade without any danger of cutting myself.A general note. I have to use both hands to open the knife and I often use both hands to close it. Having to use both hands is probably a "deal breaker" for many pocket knife owners. I suspect, however, most people who have more fully functional hands and/or people who are not as klutzy as I, can easily open and close this knife single handedly.

This is a go-to knife, I keep one on the shelf in case my "active" knife goes down or gets lost. As a landscape contractor, I use mine for a lot more than normal stuff. It makes quick work of sapplings and is my preferred method when trimming dead flower bulbs.

***Update***.... 7 months now.. knife still going strong. Thanks Kershaw. So, today marks about 3 months with this knife. As stated above, I DON'T WRITE VERY MANY REVIEWS AT ALL!!! HOWEVER in this case felt it necessary for a few reasons. 1. I really appreciated reading the others PERSONAL OPINIONS/"reviews" on this purchase for I carry a knife DAILY.. ALL DAY.. from sun up to sun down and need it to be and perform at its pinnacle. They really helped me to finalize my choice. I must also say I have a friend who has carried a Kershaw before, I did NOT like his PARTICULAR MODEL, only for its function, thus very apprehensive but willing to take a shot on this model, due to reviews, trusting a gut that's 90% right and doing my research. 2. I felt it necessary to debunk many false & untrue facts and statements.If you pull a side by side on screen comparison of the knife listed here with the same knife listed on the actually manufacture website, you will see IT'S THE EXACT SAME KNIFE, MODEL NUMBERS, ETCHINGS, NAMES AND REVERSE FLAG! WHAT'S DIFFERENT YOU ASK? At the time of my purchase it was exactly half the price on Amazon vs company site. If you look at their pictures and videos, they are same for both sites. Folks, I say the knives are IDENTICAL as the original mfgr and NOT SOME BOGUS KNOCK OFF. I can also confirm this because I took mine into a local dealer for verification and was told, "yep, she's one of ours, nice job and hell of a score!" So for anyone who received anything other than that exact knife, then my apologies and one would have immediately returned it and also be sure to look at the supplier or company selling the product on Amazon.Now, having said all that, here are MY pros and cons:PROS:SOLID f-ing knife. sturdy, fits hands nicely (average hands- not tennis rackets.. lol) its nice & lightweight, but yet you know its not going to just break apart and opens like a champ. the assisted acceleration with opening is an added bonus.CONS:lol...while I bought it specifically for the textured grip handle, to have as added grip for opening (due to speed assist) i have found that the rough "grit" texture tends to do a number on some of the pants i wear. especially the Duluth dry on the fly. it tends to act like sand paper to your clothes due to the clip begin so tight. BUT.. its a MINOR thing.ALSO TO ADDRESS SOME OF THE REVIEWS ABOUT SHARPNESS... While its "sharp" and has an edge.. you won't be dressing out a hog or side of beef with it. It's your standard "basic" edge. So, "read the room" and consider what you're going to be using it for, how often, and ARE YOUUUUU PROPERLY ABLE TO MAINTAIN, SHARPEN & CARE FOR???? Buy a knife for YOUR NEEDS or be able to put the edge you want on it and service it yourself. My Buck that this is replacing lasted 25 years, only reason I didn't get another is, A. they didn't have a design I liked and B. their knives aren't what they used to be.Well I hope this helped someone, if only 1 person. I stand by my OPINION and remember everyone has one. Like shoes & underwear, knives are a personal thing, sometimes it takes a few tries.

Kershaw make a great knife… always in my pocket. Great gift to give or receive.
