Kershaw?s Brawler is an excellent utility knife, designed to perform at the top of its game every time. The Brawler?s 3-inch modified tanto blade is designed for excellent piercing capability, punching through tough materials when required. The blade is made of high-performance 8Cr13MoV steel, featuring excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance. The top of the Brawler?s blade features a swedge grind, narrowing the blade and adding to its piercing power. The Brawler?s straight belling offers excellent cutting capacity and is perfect for bearing down on a task. Just as functional is the Brawler?s handle. The blade is opened quickly and easily with one hand, thanks to SpeedSafe assisted opening and a simple pull back on the built-in flipper. The angled handle curves easily into the palm and jimping along the back of the blade offers additional traction. Completing the premium design are sturdy glass-filled nylon handle scales, a secure locking liner and a 4-position pocketclip..
