At the 2001 S.H.O.T. Show, Kershaw introduced two Ken Onion designs. Playing upon Ken's name they called them their fresh onions, and one of them was the Scallion. The original Scallion had injection-molded polyamide handle scales and like most other Onion designs, featured Ken's Speed-Safe torsion bar mechanism for smooth assisted opening. This model features the same technology but has a 410 stainless steel handle with a contoured shape to fit nicely in the hand. The blade is a 2-1/4" recurved blade of 420 HC at 55-57 Rc. Measures 3-1/2" closed. Frame lock for secure carry. Weighs 2.3 oz. Made in the U.S.A. Suggested retail $79.99.

Kershaw Knives

Kershaw Knives was founded in 1974 in Portland, Oregon when knife salesman Pete Kershaw started a cutlery company that would make knives from his designs. Japanese based KAI Cutlery manufactured those designs. In 1978, KAI Cutlery purchased Kershaw Knives and the company, renamed KAI USA Ltd., continues today with three product lines; including the original Kershaw Knives, Zero Tolerance Knives, and Shun Cutlery which primarily markets kitchen cutlery.

Over the years, Kershaw Knives has worked with several custom knifemakers. Cutlery Hall of Famer Ken Onion, a custom knife maker and inventor of the “SpeedSafe” assisted opening mechanism, is the premier knife designer for Kershaw Knives. Kershaw has also collaborated with custom knifemakers Grant and Gavin Hawk, Frank Centofante, and Ernest Emerson. Kershaw has released models that were developed in collaboration with National Geographic, Jeep, Orange County Choppers, the American Professional Rodeo Association, and the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation.

Kershaw manufactures excellent knives and has built a very strong customer fan base due to their innovative designs and their quality control.
