Made in America, the compact and durable Kershaw Link Gray Aluminum Blackwash Tanto (1776TGRYBW) tactile folding pocket knife offers high quality at an affordable price. The 420HC stainless steel tanto blade keeps its sharp edge, is corrosion and stain resistant and has a rough, scuffed look to hide scratches, dirt and fingerprints. The drop-point blade is designed to puncture, slash, stab, slice, chop or scrape the surface of various materials. The simple craftsmanship of the blade’s Blackwash finish is non-reflective and unassuming to blend in with everything. The handles are machined from lightweight aluminum and anodized with dark gray sculpted lines to provide a comfortable and secure grip. Use the SpeedSafe Assisted Opening for quick and safe one-handed blade deployment by pulling back on the flipper. With the reversible pocketclip, left or right-handed users can change side of carry in the tip-up position. The titanium liner lock securely locks the blade open during use.

It’s big in the hand and the styling is a lot more like the nosebleed-expensive Zero Tolerance knives (also from parent company I’m a knife guy who also does several versions of traditional Japanese martial arts.

The steel isn’t quite as hard as my Leek, but it hones quickly and keeps a sharp edge well enough. Blackwash…
Good knife for the price Good knife for the price. Kershaw seems to be releasing really respectable new knife models. Most of them are manufactured off shore but they seem to be doing a good job of staying on top of quality control.I don’t think you could buy a nicer knife until you reach somewhere near the $85 mark. At that point the more expensive materials and finish will start to show.This knife has a very smooth and dependable opening design.As others have noted – the handle…
One Deal Breaker The quality is great, and it’s a gorgeous knife. Factor in the price and it’s nearly perfect.Unfortunately, the grip is just too slick to be used safely and confidently for real world work. The super smooth aluminum scales have next to no friction and the texture is very finely brushed.Get the more pain looking 1776T with the black glass filled nylon handles. Significantly better grip.
