Kershaw Olive Composite Blade Dividend Pocket Knife (1812OLCB)

Description

The Kershaw Olive Composite Blade Dividend Pocket Knife (1812OLCB) stands out with its innovative Composite Blade Technology and refined design. Crafted in the USA, this premium everyday carry (EDC) knife seamlessly blends two high-performance steels into a single blade: CPM D2 and Bohler N690. The Bohler N690 steel forms the upper portion of the blade, offering exceptional hardness and superior corrosion resistance. Meanwhile, the CPM D2 tool steel is strategically placed on the cutting edge, providing outstanding wear resistance, toughness, and long-lasting edge retention. These two steels are permanently joined in a distinctive “toothlike” pattern, creating a blade that is both highly functional and visually striking, reminiscent of a warbird’s aesthetic.

• USA Made Quality: Designed, prototyped, quality-controlled, and manufactured in the United States, ensuring high standards of craftsmanship and reliability.
• SpeedSafe® Assisted Opening: Provides rapid, smooth, and reliable one-handed blade deployment via a convenient flipper, making it ready for action instantly.

The SpeedSafe® assisted opening mechanism will engage, swiftly deploying the blade into the open and locked position.

Carefully fold the blade back into the handle until it is fully closed and secured. Keep fingers clear of the blade path.
