Order Details

ONLY 1 LEFT

With a handle length of 3-7/8", the Turismo will not take up much space in the pocket, yet users can easily achieve a four-finger grip. Its black PVD coating adds a stealthy look and helps to protect against corrosion. The 2-7/8" leaf shaped blade has a gently curved belly providing ideal cutting power for everyday tasks. The custom backspacer includes small, hexagon-shaped cutouts for a little added interest. The Turismo proves that small knives can deliver big features and big performance.

The D2 high-carbon tool steel is highly wear resistant, tough and offers excellent edge retention. Equipped with Kershaw's patented SpeedSafe® assisted opening system for smooth, easy opening. The built-in flipper design makes the knives easy to deploy, left or right-handed. The deep-carry pocketclip is easily reversible for left/right tip-up carry.

The blade steel has a hardness of 60-61 Rc. Weighs 3.3 oz. Made in China. Suggested Retail $71.99.

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.
