The Back Door: Kershaw Launch 20 Automatic - Raw Aluminum with Marbled Carbon Fiber, 3" CPM-MagnaCut Reverse Tanto - Made in USA (7050) (Trade In)

Back Door Entry. The Kershaw That Actually Gets Built Here.

This is a Kershaw Launch 20 in raw aluminum with marbled carbon fiber inlays, running a 3 inch CPM-MagnaCut reverse tanto. It came in used with the box, no fall damage.

Worth clearing something up first. Kershaw builds plenty of knives overseas and a lot of people assume the whole brand is. The Launch automatics are not. They come out of Tualatin, Oregon, the same building as Zero Tolerance.

MagnaCut is the part that still surprises people at this price. It is the stainless everyone spent years chasing, corrosion resistance without giving up edge retention, and Kershaw put it on a push button auto before most of the industry caught up. The reverse tanto gives you a strong tip with usable belly behind it, which is an easier shape to live with day to day than a standard tanto.

The Launch fires hard. Press the button and it is open, no wrist, no thumb stud. Raw aluminum picks up character with handling, and the carbon fiber inlay keeps the handle from reading as a plain slab.

Made in Tualatin, Oregon.
