Here at Adept Knives, we're confident you'll love the Kershaw Launch 11, a lightweight and easy-to-carry automatic knife. This knife is legal to carry in many places, but always be sure to check your local regulations before carrying any automatic knife.

The Launch 11 features a 2.75-inch blade crafted from CPM 154 steel. CPM 154 is a high-performance steel that offers a good balance of hardness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. The handle is constructed from anodized aluminum, making it both durable and lightweight. The Launch 11 weighs only 2.1 ounces, making it a comfortable choice for everyday carry.

Customers on the Kai USA website have rated this knife positively, with some reviewers mentioning that it feels good in hand and is easy to open. However, one reviewer wished the knife was a bit larger. Overall, the Kershaw Launch 11 is a great option for those looking for a compact and lightweight automatic knife for everyday carry.
