There are lots of very good reasons the Leek is one of the most popular Kershaws.
For one thing, the slim blade is remarkably versatile. This modified drop-point blade shape gives it good slicing capabilities, while the slim tip lets it excel at piercing and detail work. The blade steel is high-performance Sandvik 14C28N stainless that sharpens to a razor edge and holds the edge for a good long time. The 3-inch blade is perfect for most day-to-day tasks. Leek fans also appreciate the fast and easy opening provided by SpeedSafe assisted opening. Left-handed or right-handed, a simple pull back on the flipper and the Leek’s blade is ready to go to work.
And with its anodized aluminum camo-pattern handle, this Leek is also the perfect knife for your next hunting trip or every day carry if you're just living the camo life. For safety, a locking liner keeps the blade locked open during use and a Tip-Lock slider locks it closed when folded. The pocketclip is reversible for tip-up or tip-down carry and the handle is drilled to accept a lanyard. This slim, easy-to-carry design, with plenty of cutting versatility just may be the perfect EDC.

Specifications:
- Hunting
This knife is part of Kershaw’s series of hunting knives- for the toughness, durability, and edge-holding capabilities your next hunting trip demands.
- Flipper
May be used on either manual or assisted opening knives. The "flipper" is a protrusion on the back of the blade that the user can pull back on, or flip, in order to move the blade easily out of the handle.
- SpeedSafe®
Assists you to open any SpeedSafe® knife quickly and easily with a manual push on the thumbstud or pull back on the flipper; built into many Kershaw best sellers.
- Liner Lock
Locks the blade open during use; one side of the knife’s steel "liner," the steel plate to which the handle scales are attached, moves into position behind the blade to securely lock it open.
- Reversible
Pre-drilled holes in the handle enable the user to change either the tip position or the side on which the knife carries.
- Fixed Blade
The knife does not fold closed; usually stored in a sheath or blade protector.
- Made In The USA
