Great review. I picked one of these up for my mom recently and she loves it. The assisted opening is great for her since she has arthritis. The weight is also much better than the CRKT Crawford/Kasper she used to carry. Probably end up getting one for myself too.
I find it a bit strange that I can't seem to get this blade as sharp as my tenacious. I use the same diamond steel, same technique and it never seems to match it. Wonder why...
@horseman863 Thanks for the sub. Depends on you. Do you like the flipper/deployment hole better? Does width bother you (if so go with tenacious)? Both are same steel (and appear to be both quality level as heat treatment has much to do with how the steal turns out). Tenacious better thumb ramp with jimping. Also the clip is positional all four places where Clash is only right tip up or down. Clash is a cool assisted flipper. I know I didn't answer, but hope that's something to think about.
Your reference seems to always be your Spyderco tenacious Crocket. I have been feeling quite tempted to add a Spyderco to my collection. But being on a budget I just can't decide. I have a rule where I save my large defensive knives just for an emergency I.e. spyderco resilience (which I really want). But yet if I got an edc knife like the tenacious and put alot of daily use to it I would probably have a lot more respect for the tool. Decisions , decisions
Been looking for a new EDC knife by looking at some review videos by nutnfancy. None of them really fell along the lines of what I prefer in an EDC. When I saw your review, I knew this knife is what I was looking for. Ordered one today. Thanks for the recommendation Crocket!
blade shape very similar to Blur. Great size to do "work" which just is not truly reasonable with the smaller knives that seem to be in favor by many users. Great demo and monologue.
@usframe For me and an EDC knife, this is about the smallest I like to go. In fact, I prefer just a bit longer knife. Although this size I can be happy with.
I think this is a good "second-step" EDC or camping knife for a 12 year old, or 13 year old. It's nice and chunky in the hand, it's hard to lose, but it retains its cool factor for the boys. Not that it isn't good enough for the men! What I mean is, this is an adult size blade that could be transitioned for a young man or lady, and they would be proud to have it and care for it. And the price point is certainly appealing across the board. The black on black option is attractive. Thx!
@TheMuslimKiller Not intended to be a Z. Lots of concepts going on there that offer different targets depending on where one is on the target. Little more going on there than what you think.
@VAbackpacker No, I am well aware a knife fighting and combat methodologies. Just to make you look stupid I'm going to continue, A: The motions being made in this video are nowhere near proper knife fighting techniques. B: Conservation of motion and energy is a prime directive, he is wasting massive amounts of energy making stupid slashes. C: He is not aiming for any corroded arteries nor is he aiming for any tendon separating targets. In a knife fight he would get flayed.
@TheMuslimKiller How would you know if I was aiming or not aiming at certain targets. It's cardboard taped to a wall. Your ability to interpret what is actually happening is limited by your close mindedness and self inflated ego. Your name you've choose speaks volumes about your intolerance, prejudice, and hatred.
@TheMuslimKiller HAHAHA i get it!! You say your making vabackpacker look stupid when really your making yourself look stupid! ps. pieces of cardboard do not have arteries "nor" tendons.. haha your funny! i might even subscribe to you lol
I like the blade shape. Just enough belly. But it's a bit too large for me as an EDC blade. Make that same blade shape about 3/4 the size and I'd be all over one.
Great review. Yeah, kerhaw know what they're doing!
What would be REALLY cool, would be a review of the knife designed by the top guy in he martial art you train in -I forget what it is as it woulda been a couple of years ago now that it was mentioned on a youtube vid!
Also if you like the SOG pocket clips, FYI you'll like the Spydies with wire clips...
I bought this at a Florida Gunshow last summer. The regular non-black version. The blade shape is perfect for food prepping and such. I find it a bit bulky for EDC. Like the Skyline better in that role.
@badjujur6 companies design the clips to allow different placement, whether its leftside carry or rightside. Tip up can be essential if there is no locking mechanism on the knife, to prevent it from opening in pocket. Tip up carry usually ensures that the spine of the knife sits against the seam of your pant pocket, this way the knife can't deploy fully.
dude, I have become a kershaw fan lately! price is great and they still hold the quality levels high enough that they are worth having. Nice review! I think my mind appreciates price points and makes adjustments for all minor ergo and weight flaws. Sweet!
I used to like assisted opening knives, but 1. My state considers them "automatic" or switch blade. And 2. When I did carry one, I had it open accidentally in my pocket just one time..... But that one time it lanced my thigh open! Yea, had to get 5 stitches! Wasn't a long cut just deep! So no more Assisted opening for me!
hmmm, might just have to try a flipper design. Thought about a Leek, but by the time I got around to it, the price doubled to $50, and I passed. Great review!
Thank for the review. Yet another Kershaw I now want. I was going to get a blur next but now I may have to think. Love their speed safe assisted opening. So fun to play with, flip close, flip close. Ahhhhh relaxing :)
I like the design, flowing lines and sweet recurve blade. Crazy value too. I would moan about Kershaw not providing a left hand clip option (yet again) but as we can't get assisted openers here it's a moot point for me. Good review Crocket.
Like the review, dislike the knife... It is a thick knife, and definitely bulky. I carried a SOG trident for years, and loved it compared to this. Good price for a assisted knife though
@Steeleprophet For people that don't like the bulk I can definitely see why one would have issue with this knife. The bulk doesn't bother me so much. Appreciate the differing viewpoint.
Seems like all considered a very awesome knife! I have a definite style of look for knives that I like and this is one of those that I just like looking at... thanks for the video!
I was "talked out" of spending my money on their products due to his responses to my criticisms of the blade on the 7000auto making contact with a pillar and chipping.
I had enjoyed my kershaw blades prior to that convo, but call me petty, I haven't bought or carried one since (always found comparable alternatives, sometimes even better)
though your reviews tempt me back, a bad history loses out and the HK (Benchmade) Vex wins
@HvinnyTheViking Hey, I just wanted to say, I know how you feel. Ive had bad experiences with customer services at various places (or even had a bad waitress at a favorite restaurant for instance) and it made me feel resentment towards the product or place and has caused me to boycott for a while. I thought about what I was doing and basically I realized I was prejudiced and committing bigotry. You shouldnt base your sole opinion on your experience w/ one person and apply that..
@girtisholland you'd be surprised how many restaurants are are in the same boat with Kershaw for me, heh, but alas just like the competition for knives, there are so many competing restaurants that I get my grub elsewhere and oftentimes it tasted just as good, even better sometimes
@HvinnyTheViking ...against a whole group or entity. Basically it is a general form racism, but with a product or service. So many people judge ethnic groups based upon the actions of a few and it is unfair, unjust and prejudiced, The same applies with customer service reps. Sorry for the long reply, but basically dont let one person make your opinion of something. Judge Kershaw as a whole and not based upon one asshole rep.
Crocket, thanks for the great review man. I haven't handled one myself but after your review I might just buy one. I like the black on black look, and I know Kershaw can put together a nice EDC blade. Thanks again.
Great review of this knife. I have been carrying the satin blade Clash for about 5 months now and I'm very happy with it. It's a big knife but fits in my pocket with no problem, I don't really know it's there. This looks like some of the Zero Tolerance knives that go for a LOT more in cost. If I had bought one of those I would never carry it for fear of scuffing it up.
Great great review Crocket! I toted around the Kershaw scallion for a couple of years until I wore it out & it has an almost identical flipper design.
For what it's worth I'm diggin' the wood shaving in the background : ) Great stuff!
That was easily the best review I've seen on this knife. I may have to take another look at it. I'm one of those who skipped it due to handle width, but I can see now, thanks to your detailed review, what an excellent knife it is for the price.
@TheLateBoyScout It is a fatty and I can definitely see how that would turn some off. While I like the thinner knives, something of the Clash size does not bother me at all. For the price it's just a fun little knife.
An excellent review. I'm a Gerber person. I could change after watching this video. I don't know that much about blades, but you sold this One to me. I'm glad that you gave the price range on here too. Take care my friend. I know this is personal, but how the twins and the others in the family. Just curious. Take care and God bless you my friend.
I've been happy with all my Kershaw knives. I have 3 Blurs, a couple of Scallions and a Leek. Love the Tanto style blade for EDC and utility work. Use it for all sorts of tasks all day.
@Cr0cket20 Knives are easier to collect than guns if you aren't rich lol. Even so you can't count on getting what you pay for so a value knife of quality is even more rare, Nowadays you can't just see a mark like Gerber and know that every one of their knives will be decent. I've been disappointed by Ontario too, Not all their knives are well made. But I have not handled or seen a sub standard Kershaw, My collection ranges from the $500-ish to the $50-ish range. I love Al-Mar and Randall knives
Kershaw black finish is indeed very good, at the level of Spyderco and Benchmade. Not anything like the Rat 1's or the Cold Steel finish on their AUS8A blades.
Kershaw knives are some of the highest value knives on the market period. And they're made in the USA too. Huge bonus. I love my kershaw blackout ken onion designed edc pocket knife. It's an assisted opening blade like this one in your video. Kershaw blades come razor sharp out of the box and will take a sick edge upon resharpening in my experience. For $25 I may have to pick this one up for my collection. Nice review.
personally i love 8cr it is my favorite edc steel, don't get me wrong i like the high end steels too, but after i carry a knife i usually touch it up at the end of the day, and 8cr really just serves well in edc role
Great video as always! I like the black on black but, not too crazy about the pocket clip. Great folder for EDC for sure. A blade with marks and some fading on it is allot like a belt in Martial Arts, old, faded and worn speaks volumes about the experience and memories. Thank you for taking the time to share. Stay safe! -Tim
The lines of it remind me of a ZT knife. Prob on purpose lol

personally i love 8cr it is my favorite edc steel, don't get me wrong i like the high end steels too, but after i carry a knife i usually touch it up at the end of the day, and 8cr really just serves well in edc role

@bobmellon I'm with you. I like to touch up my blades often. Easier to keep sharp and always have a sharp blade.

Great video as always! I like the black on black but, not too crazy about the pocket clip. Great folder for EDC for sure. A blade with marks and some fading on it is allot like a belt in Martial Arts, old, faded and worn speaks volumes about the experience and memories. Thank you for taking the time to share. Stay safe! -Tim

@TheTacticalDefender I honestly did have to get used to it. It's a fat pocket clip not a phat pocket clip : )
