Few knives garner as much excitement as out-the-front automatics. After significant research, careful development, and rigorous testing, in-house designers and custom knifemaker Matt Diskin deliver Kershaw's first OTF auto: the Livewire. The premium CPM 20CV blade opens and retracts with authority. The black-anodized aluminum handle is textured for a secure grip. And its curved, staircase-like button feels comfortable on the thumb for reliable deployment. In addition, this knife is a joy to carry due to its light weight and reversible deep-carry clip. Fans have been asking for it, and the Livewire is every bit worth the wait.
