Kershaw Iridium Reverse Tanto Folding Pocket Knife, Sleek 3.4 inch D2 Steel Blade, DuraLock Locking Mechanism, Aluminum Handle, Designed in the USA

The media could not be loaded. Love this knife! I started purchasing several different knives to start a collection, and this is my favorite so far. The aluminum handle is amazing. Feels good in the hand. Blade length is great and the sharpness straight out of the box is insane. Opening the blade is buttery smooth compared to the other knives I bought. For the $55 I spent on it, I feel this knife is top notch. I don't write many reviews, however with how pleased I am with this knife, I felt I should let others know it was absolutely worth the purchase. I carry it in my pocket everyday.

I was pleasantly surprised when I received this knife. Kersha has really stepped up their game with this offering. The drop point version seems to one getting more attention, but I prefer the reverse tanto blade shape. It looks better and it’s way more versatile.Construction on is top notch, it feels incredibly solid in hand and weights only 3.4 OZ, making it lighter than the CJRB Pyrate (with SS handles). Kersha’s version of the crossbar lock is flawless, I actually prefer it over Benchmade’s.The only thing I would change about this knife is the type of steel. Although D2 is tough and holds an edge for quite a while, it is a pain to sharpen. Also, since it’s not stainless, you need to be careful and wipe it/clean it when used in wet environments or when cutting stuff like fruit, for example.

Great first knife. Still sharp. Use it in the yard.

This knife is awesome. Honestly purchased because i liked the blade style. This knife has quickly become one of my favorites. it feels great in the hand, quick to deploy and easy to close. Blade is extremely sharp right out of the box, may need to start trying more Kershaw knives.

This is a fantastic knife! Stays sharp for a long time with many uses. It's now my favorite knife. Especially, for the price!

This is a nice knife. Nice design, great quality build, light enough and quite sturdy (the tiny bearings might be an issue).Some issues with it:- It can get quite slippery - the matte black paint provides some traction, but not much.- No (or minimal) finger guard.- The blade is held closed by minimal tension in the omega springs and can (especially for the reverse-tanto model with the taller blade) open unexpectedly, e.g. when pulling it out of the pocket. On the plus side, this makes it a nice fidget toy - easy deployments, can even deploy with a flick of the wrist without having to disengage the lock.- the lock bar engages very minimally with the blade. While this makes blade release/closing very easy it does not look very safe while actually using the knife.So overall, a very nice gentleman knife (and fidget toy, certainly not very "tactical") that can potentially bite you. OK to carefully use around the house, in the office, or in more civilized environments with air conditioning where your hands don't get too sweaty or slippery and you don't need to apply too much forward/thrusting force to it.

I've loved Kershaw since I can remember. Now that they can use Benchmades system I'm picking up some of these style knifes and they are awesome! Opens and closes very smooth and love the new mechanism!

Well made and great size for EDC. Not too bulky or heavy. Excellent price for such a well made knife.
