Here at Adept Knives, we're excited to offer the Kershaw Launch 13, a slim, lightweight, and versatile automatic knife that's perfect for everyday carry.
The Launch 13 features a Wharncliffe blade style, known for its exceptional utility for slicing and everyday tasks. The blade is crafted from CPM-154 steel, a powdered metallurgy steel prized for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance. This means you can count on the Launch 13 to stay sharp even after heavy use.
The handle of the Launch 13 is constructed from lightweight, anodized aluminum. Anodization is an electrochemical process that creates a hard, protective oxide layer on the surface of the aluminum. This makes the handle more durable and scratch-resistant. The Launch 13 also features a low-profile push button that makes it difficult for the blade to deploy accidentally, ensuring safety during carry.
For convenient everyday carry, the Launch 13 features a reversible deep-carry pocket clip. A deep-carry clip allows the knife to sit deeper in your pocket, making it less visible and reducing the risk of snagging on clothing. The Launch 13 also has an integrated lanyard hole, providing another carry option. The blade of the Launch 13 features a black Cerakote finish. Cerakote is a ceramic-based finish that enhances durability and wear resistance.
Overall, the Kershaw Launch 13 is a great option for those looking for a slim, lightweight, and versatile automatic knife for everyday carry. With its high-quality materials and construction, the Launch 13 is a knife you can count on for years to come. Stop by Adept Knives today and see for yourself why the Launch 13 is a great choice for your EDC needs.
