KS7100BLKDAM: Launch 1 AUTO Damascus - Black Kershaw Knives Got an automatic attraction? Then look into Kershaw&';s Launch 1. This automatic knife features Alabama Damascus steel, a strong opening kick, and is made in the USA at Kershaw&';s Tualatin, Oregon manufacturing facility. To lighten the Launch 1&';s weight, the handles are durable anodized aluminum and are contoured to fit snugly in the hand. The Launch 1 opens with a push button, which is recessed so that it is level with the flat of the handle. This is a safety feature and makes it harder for the knives to accidentally deploy. Nevertheless, automatic knives are dangerous and should be handled with extreme caution in all circumstances. The Launch 1&';s pocket clip is left/right reversible. Features Push-Button Lock - Found on the Kershaw Folding Saw, It locks the blade open during use, then releases with the push of a button.
