Kershaw Method Straightback Folder Knife, 3", Black - 1170
Kershaw Method Straightback Folder Knife, 3", Black - 1170, This smaller pocketknife from Kershaw and Jens Anso features a slim, 3 inches blade of 8Cr13MoV in our BlackWash finish. A top swedge adds to its eye appeal. The Method opens quickly, easily, and manually with our KVT ball-bearing system and a built-in flipper. The handle is black - of course. The G10 handle features an unusual machined pattern reminiscent of an architectural truss. It not only looks good, but also offers additional grip security. A custom backspacer features Jens' large lanyard attachment for those of you who prefer a lanyard, and adds a touch of style even if you're the lanyard-free type. An inset liner lock keeps the weight down on the Method while still providing solid blade-lockup security. A single-position pocketclip (right, tip-up) enables the knife to sit securely inside your pocket. How do we accomplish all this style and value in a smaller knife? By using the Kershaw manufacturing "Method", of course.

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
