High-Performance Steel

A highly stain resistant, value-priced steel, 4CR14 stainless steel is reasonably tough and corrosion resistant. Capable of taking a wicked, sharp edge, 4CR14 strikes a solid balance between toughness and edge retention. This budget-friendly, affordable steel is excellent for knives used sporadically, spending a good amount of time at-the-ready in a purse or suitcase.

Attractive Blade Finish

Kershaw’s patented Blackwash finish derives from a balanced blend of blade coating and stonewashing. Together the two produce a precisely formulated all-black matte finish impervious to fingerprints, smudges and marring. And, even though the knife itself is brand new, Blackwash projects a well-worn, vintage look popular for blending comfortably with clothes and gear during everyday use and carry.

Fast Deployment

Using a torsion bar to move the blade out of the handle, Kershaw’s revolutionary SpeedSafe Assisted Opening system enables smooth, secure, fast one-handed blade deployment. Apply manual pressure to the flipper or thumb stud with a light push or pull back to overcome resistance of the torsion bar, and the blade opens smoothly and locks into place for confident handling without premature closure.

Secure Locking System

Kershaw’s frame lock design makes knives safer, securer, sturdier and quicker for one-handed blade deployment. The knife handle, or frame, has two metal plates on either side of the blade, and when open, the lockbar butts up against the blade’s backend to prevent blade closure. To close the knife blade, push the frame to the side to unlock the blade and fold the blade back into the handle.

One-Handed Flipper

Knives with SpeedSafe open have two options for one-handed blade deployment. To activate the smooth, instant open, user can push a thumbstud or press a flipper. The flipper on SpeedSafe assisted knives is easy to operate by both left- and right-handed users. And, once blade swings open and locks into place, flipper either disappears for aesthetics or remains visible for added finger protection.

Durable Handle

Very tough, able to take heavy-duty hard use, and versatile, glass-filled nylon handle material is a nylon synthetic polymer reinforced with glass threads for increased strength. Glass-filled nylon has incredible stiffness for a secure and stable grip, great ability to withstand heat, and dimensional stability combined with excellent wear resistance. Unique to certain Kershaw products, an exclusive and iconic texture is used on the handle to identify the brand and to provide additional traction when using the knife. The pattern is in a 'K' shaped repeating pattern to provide an extremely secure and safer grip. The K-Texture pattern ensures the user will always have a secure hold, even in slippery, wet, marine conditions.

Attractive Blade Coating

Black oxide coating is a chemical bath, or conversion coating, that converts the surface of the blade steel to magnetite. Mainly for appearance, black oxide does add some mild corrosion resistance and tends to minimize light reflection from the blade. The blackening process gives the blade an attractive, smooth, tactical, fierce black surface that is very desirable to knife owners.

Product Description

A streamlined look at a streamlined price, the Kershaw Filter is the perfect starter knife. Made with 4Cr14 steel, the 3.25-inch blade is highly stain resistant. Use the drop point blade for any cutting task and easily resharpen as needed. Assisted opening technology allows swift blade access, while the frame lock secures the blade in place. Made from stainless steel and contoured for a comfortable grip, the handle hides scratches and offers smooth function. Use the small pocket knife as your everyday carry, or break it out for camping and hiking adventures. Kershaw was founded in 1974 to design and manufacture tools that knife users would be proud to own, carry and use. Whether it's a hardworking pocketknife, a hunting knife or a special collectors' edition, Kershaw always chooses appropriate, high-quality materials and is dedicated to intensive craftsmanship.
