Great handle grip. Assisted opening blade, comes very sharp and in great condition. Definitely plan to buy more in the future.

I purchased this very knife 4 years ago in March of 2021. This has been a very good knife. It's very sharpe and very easy to sharpen. The spring in the assisted folder is still top notch. It opens very smoothly and fast. The only issue is that the grippy inlays on the non belt clip side fell off. I wish I could get some more of those grip inlays. But all in all a very capable pocket knife.

Love this knife. It's strong, sharp, fast opening, slim - everything I was looking for in a replacement to my old knife. Very happy with my purchase.

First things first this pocket knife in my opinion is all cracked up to what its supposed to be. I am very happy I decided to purchase it. Number one it is absolutely a beautiful black beauty. Number two it is very well built and super solid. The belt clip is super strong and tight. The assisted open feature is magnificent! Also it is super easy to unlock which i really like! Finally number three this knife is the sharpest damn pocket knife I have ever owned. I am not exaggerating when i say this knife comes RAZOR RAZOR sharp! You can literally shave your face, legs, arms or any other part of your body you'd like. I am absolutely stunned how sharp this knife really is. To all future buyers, be very careful when handling this knife. It can do serious damage if you are careless with it. With all that being said I highly recommend this knife to any responsible person who is really looking for a well crafted, hand and shart AF pocket knife!! Thanks Kershaw for a great product! And thanks Amazon for a great price. Oh by the way it costs double on the manufacturers website!!! Thanks again AMAZON!!!

This is the only negative thing in my review:I had to bend the pocket clip out just a bit because it was quite difficult to clip it on to any fabric that wasn't taught and thinNow for the good bitsIt took me forever looking for my next knife. Im no knife expert and have never purchased a high-ish quality pocket knife, but this thing...this thing is amazing! Im super picky when it comes to looks, so when I found this one I instantly knew I had to have it. It is lighter than I expected, but not in a cheap-feeling way. The rubberized coating on the handle (which sort of feels like what they put on the running tracks around a football or soccer field) really helps keep it in your hand, but not grippy enough to make it difficult to put in your pocketDon't even get me started on the finish of the blade. Im a sucker for matte black because of its smoothness and how it reflects light, and this coating has me wanting to rub it every time I pop her out. Right out of the box, the blade was extremely sharp (the sharpest I've ever felt, but like I said, I have never seen a super high-quality blade) and slices through paper with ease. I had some suspension work to do on my car and started with my plain box knife which took some effort to cut through this plastic piece, but I but this baby on there and you would have thought the plastic turned to sour cream.I bought the Tanto version of the Blur, as I love the blade style for the scenarios I use it in, and the serrated section almost made my eyes pop out with how sharp it was. It sliced through a rubber/foam piece like it wasn't even there.If you're looking for a good, reliable, sharp pocket knife, then get this baby. Its extremely sexy, so you can enjoy cutting things even more! It's large enough to not feel shrimpy, but small/thin enough to easily slide on your pants or not bulge your pockets.

Great Knife! I have a small collection of folding knives, and this is one of my favorites. The handle has a great textured grip and the side clip is handy and durable. And I like the fact that the clip is reversible or removable, depending on your preference. The blade is extremely sharp and very durable. I like the blade thickness, very strong; and the length is good for tackling almost any situation you come across. The Kershaw Speed Safe assisted opening is also excellent. Easy enough to open with one finger, yet secure enough so it won't open accidentally. That makes it great for one handed operation when you're multi tasking.A few minor considerations to keep in mind...-The textured grip along with the side clip can cause some wear to your clothing over time; depending on how often you use it.-The screw that secures the blade to the handle MAY loosen from constant opening and closing, but some thread locker will solve that.-The screws used to put the knife together and machine screws with a Torx head. So if you need to do any tightening or adjustments you'll need small size Torx bits.Even with these minor points, I still consider the Black Blur a great knife, and I would recommend this to anyone. Mechanic, outdoorsman, do-it-yourself enthusiast, this knife will serve you well. Just my opinion. And as if that weren't enough...I checked some local retailers and the exact same knife costs AT LEAST TWICE what Amazon was asking. That made it a no-brainer. Keep up the good work Kershaw and Ken Onion.
