Kershaw - EDC Launch 20 Spring Knife - Reverse Tanto - Silver - 7050

EDC Launch 20 Folding Knife Spring Head Reverse Tanto Silver Kershaw 7050

The Kershaw Launch 20 7050 is a modern and practical automatic knife featuring a blade made of high-quality CPM MagnaCut steel, a discreet button and sleek anodized aluminum liners.

Structurally, the Launch 20 7050 is a classic automatic knife that can be successfully used for everyday use when you need to carry a reliable EDC tool. It has a 76 mm long blade, made of high-quality CPM MagnaCut stainless steel produced with powder technology. The main difference between CPM MagnaCut steel and other stainless steels is the chromium content.

The elimination of chromium carbides from the steel's composition has resulted in a fine microstructure, making CPM MagnaCut much easier to sharpen compared to steels with similar wear resistance. The absence of chromium carbides has not only improved the balance of strength and wear resistance, but also its resistance to corrosion.

CPM MagnaCut combines the strength of CPM-4V, the corrosion resistance of CPM-20CV, the retention of CPM-CruWear/ CPM-4V, and an impressive hardness of as much as 64 HRC, making it now considered one of the world's best steels used in factory-made knives.

The Reverse Tanto profile blade has a uniform matte finish using the Stonewashed method of bathing the blade in abrasive stones. Such a finish effectively masks any scratches or abrasions on the blade, caused by use.

The most important feature of the automatic knife, is its extremely comfortable and easy unfolding system. In an automatic knife, unfolding the blade requires only pressing a button, which is responsible for releasing the lock and activating the internal spring. Folding the blade requires pressing the button again and manually retracting the blade. Such functionality makes "automatics" extremely popular among soldiers, uniformed service personnel and the rapidly growing group of EDC enthusiasts.

The release button is embedded in a milled cutout, so it does not protrude above the handle, which in turn effectively prevents accidental unfolding of the blade. Extreme caution and prudence are recommended when using an automatic knife.

The knife has slim and straight liners made of anodized aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum, which provide a firm grip. An element that gives the knife an elegant style is the decorative carbon fiber inserts. The anodized coating is resistant to fading, scratching and abrasion, which guarantees the knife's attractive appearance for a long time.

Discreetly carrying the knife in your pocket is made possible by the Deep Carry clip, which can be flipped to the other side. This type of clip allows the knife to be carried discreetly and securely, when embedded deep in a trouser pocket. The Kershaw Launch 20 Folding Knife is certainly an option for those looking for a reliable EDC tool with the ability to fold out in an instant and with a classic look.
