Title: Kershaw Knockout
Post by: Wudstix on December 24, 2014, 05:49:00 PM

Really pleasently surprised by this knife.  Folder with assited open and made in USA.  Light weight aluminum handle and good DP blade that takes and holds a scary sharp edge.  It made short work of the 60# sow I shot a few weeks ago, cleaned and skinned.  Great daily carry knife and a very good working knife, well worth the $79.99 that Academy sells them for.

Thanks for the heads up.  I like that style of knife, but get a little frustrated cleaning the gunk out of them after a butchering job.  You texas guys get more experience butchering those hogs than I do.  :goldtooth:

pdk25: I just get a small pan of water boiling, place the knife in the sink and then slowly pour the water over the whole knife with blade open.  Works perfectly.

Yup. One of Kershaw's best. I love that knife.

I love the blade shape on that Kershaw and fact that its USA made.  It'll be a toss up between this and the Esee Izula II until I decided whether I want a fixed or folding blade for my next field dress knife someday.
