А тут поймала себя на мысли, что 8-ку можно и купить. Ценник есть до ста долларов и вообще: красиво (тм) )))))
Kershaw’s slimmest automatic yet is slated for 2019. Inspired by the look of classic Italian stilettos, the new Launch 8 modernizes this traditional design for a new generation of knife enthusiasts.
The Launch 8 features the sleek, symmetrical lines of a stiletto in a push-button knife that’s lightweight—only 2.4 ounces—and easy-to-carry. The blade is CPM 154 with a stonewashed finish. This powdered metallurgy steel has a more uniform distribution of carbides, so it takes and holds an excellent edge. It also offers good corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and toughness. The slim blade is sharpened on one side, and it has a deep top grind to lighten weight and add stiletto style.
The handle is gray anodized aluminum with a handsome carbon fiber insert. To maintain the Launch 8’s symmetrical look, the pivot is sunk deep in the handle and covered by an attractive carbon fiber insert. Integrated finger guards on both top and bottom of the handle keep fingers away from danger.
The Launch 8 has a reversible pocketclip (right/left, tip-up) for convenient carry.
Due to the many and varied Federal and State laws that govern the purchase, owning, and transportation of automatic knives, Kershaw Automatics will be sold only through authorized Kershaw dealers.
