The Kershaw Launch 18 automatic knife is a compact, lightning-fast folder built for shooters and outdoors enthusiasts who need a reliable blade in their pocket. At 2.79 inches, this American-made automatic strikes the sweet spot between a true utility knife and a tactical EDC blade. The spear-point design and CPM 154 powdered metallurgy steel give you the cutting performance to handle camp chores, gear repairs, or quick processing work in the field—and the full-flat grind means it'll hold that edge and sharpen up straight every time.
What sets the Launch 18 apart is how it balances ruggedness with everyday practicality. The gray anodized aluminum handle feels substantial without weighing you down, while the ceramic bead-blasted titanium pivot trim ring adds durability where it counts. The integrated backspacer and low-profile push button keep the blade from deploying accidentally in your pocket, and the deep-carry clip reverses for left or right-hand carry—exactly what you want in a knife you'll reach for without thinking.
CPM 154 is a proven choice for working knives: it takes and holds a keen edge, resists corrosion, and shrugs off the wear that comes with real use. The stonewashed finish on the blade hides use scratches naturally, so your Launch 18 looks right at home on the range, in the truck, or at base camp. Kershaw made this one in the USA, and it shows in the thoughtful design and build quality.
