Sulankstomas peilis Kershaw Starter 1301BW

Kershaw Starter 1301BW is an edc folding knife, from the budget Starter series dedicated to less demanding users.

The Starter model is an everyday folder that started a series of inexpensive knives with a modern design, made of 4Cr14 easy-to-sharpen steel and equipped with the SpeedSafe system responsible for supporting the blade opening.

Proven steel

The 86 mm long blade is made of solid 4Cr14 steel hardened to 55-57 HRC. This Chinese stainless steel has a high corrosion resistance and maintains sharpness for a relatively short time, which, however, perfectly compensates for the ease and speed of sharpening.

Such properties of steel mean that the Kershaw Starter 1301BW is intended for less demanding users and people who are just starting their adventure with outdoor and EDC.

Functional blade

The slim blade with a usable drop-point profile has an effective antiqued BlackWash finish (black oxidation), which effectively masks minor scratches or abrasions of the blade caused during use.

Thanks to the use of a narrow point, a concave cut and a cutting edge with a gentle curvature, the knife has good cutting properties and the blade does not get stuck in the material being cut.

The thickness of the blade at its widest point is 2.8 mm, which is a compromise between the durability and functionality of the knife in everyday work. Transverse cutters made on the back of the blade allow for a stable support of the fingers during work.

Convenient operation

The blade can be unfolded with one hand in two ways: with a milled flipper or with the use of a double-sided pin, thus enabling the selection of a method according to our preferences. Both solutions are convenient for both right-handed and left-handed users, they also allow for convenient use of the knife with gloves.

A mechanism supporting the unfolding of the blade

The opening process is facilitated by the SpeedSafe support mechanism. When you press down on the pinball fin or pry the pin, the support mechanism activates an internal spring that dynamically unfolds the blade, making the knife ready for use in a fraction of a second.

Robust lock

After unfolding the blade, it is securely locked with the liner-lock mechanism. The steel blockade strip ensures a high level of security, and its operation is very intuitive and convenient. A reliable lock is an important element that calls for the functionality and safety of a folding knife.

Carrying clip

Discreet carrying of the knife in the pocket is facilitated by a spring clip (1 position). The handle also has a hole for attaching a decorative paracord braid, which is very popular among the majority of knife owners.

Armored linings

The handle of the knife is made of oxidized stainless steel cladding, delicately profiled to the hand. Effective transverse milling effectively attracts attention and increases the grip of the knife to the hand.
