Among the best-looking folding pocket knives available, two-toned Intellect from Kershaw aces the competition as the most intelligent choice for style, functionality, durability and practicality. Its blade, made of 8CR13MOV carbon-rich, heat-treated steel, is sharp, strong, resistant to wear and top-rated for edge retention and easy sharpening. As a bonus, Intellect’s polished blade with satin finish delivers an excitingly attractive aesthetic right down to its drop point tip thanks to a streamlined swedge and balanced jimping. Complementing the 3 inch classy blade is a titanium carbo-nitride coated handle that provides the rigidity and reliability needed to fully enjoy Intellect’s multi-function performance as a slicer and cutter. Add in polished hardware and matching back spacers and pocket clip, and this top-of-its-class folding knife becomes the perfect gift for graduates, employees, co-workers, lifetime friends and anyone else who values utility, safety and quality — in style.

But this may take replacing the plastic washers for brass ones. I do like the fit and finish of this knife. The deep carry pocket clip is nice and the body lock is also a good addition. And it fits my hand well. But…
