The Kershaw Launch 17 automatic knife is a purpose-built cutting tool for hunters, outdoorsmen, and everyday carry users who want reliable one-handed deployment. With a 3.5-inch clip point blade in CPM S35VN stainless steel, this knife combines tactical functionality with practical cutting performance. The push-button automatic mechanism fires with authority and confidence, while the integrated fingerguards on the handle top and bottom provide safety during use. Built with a black Cerakote-coated blade and gray anodized aluminum handle featuring textured G10 inlays, the Launch 17 is tough enough for field work and refined enough for EDC.
CPM S35VN blade steel is renowned for its balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness—traits that matter whether you're processing game, cutting rope at camp, or tackling daily cutting tasks. The Cerakote finish protects the blade from the elements and extends its lifespan. The textured G10 inlays provide secure grip control, especially in wet or gloved conditions, while the low-profile push button sits flush to avoid accidental deployment during carry.
The reversible deep-carry pocket clip works seamlessly for both right- and left-hand carry, making this knife accessible to shooters and hunters regardless of dominant hand. Made in the USA, the Launch 17 delivers fighting-knife aesthetics with genuine utility. It's the kind of automatic that earns its place in your pack or pocket through honest, repeatable performance.
