The Kershaw Chive 1600 is a folding pocket knife that combines the small size, proven 420HC steel and SpeedSafe support system into one fully functional EDC tool.The slim line, small size, proven steel and functional design combine to make the Kershaw Chive 1600 a stylish "gentleman's knife" and a typical EDC.Stainless steelThe short blade, 48mm long, is made from the popular 420HC stainless steel. This American steel is distinguished by its increased carbon and chromium content, which gives it corrosion resistance and good hardenability similar to AUS6.The 420HC steel blade is perfect for everyday use thanks to its wear and corrosion resistance, good sharpness and easy sharpening , for which a pocket stone is sufficient.The knife's light weight, practical size and utility make this model perfect for simple everyday tasks such as at work, at home, on hikes and in the woods.Functional bladeThe slim, usable drop point profile blade features a matte sandblast for a sleek look. Thanks to the narrow tip, concave cut and gentle curvature of the cutting edge, the knife has good cutting properties and the blade does not get stuck in the material to be cut.Transverse ribs on the spine of the blade allow stable support of the fingers while working.Convenient useThe blade can be folded with one hand in two ways: with an engraved flipper or with a double-sided pin, allowing you to choose the method according to your preferences.Both solutions are convenient for both right- and left-handed users, allowing comfortable handling of the knife even when wearing gloves.Blade opening support mechanismThe opening process is assisted by the SpeedSafe support mechanism. When you press down the flipper blade or pull out the pin, the support mechanism activates an internal spring that dynamically opens the blade and the knife is ready for use in a split second.Two locksThe monolithic frame lock blockade, considered one of the most durable locking mechanisms, protects the blade from accidental retraction.A sliding latch on the top of the knife prevents accidental opening of the blade in the folded position.Carrying clipCarrying the knife in a discreet pocket is possible thanks to the elastic (non-transferable) clip . The handle also has a hole for attaching the decorative paracord braid, which is very popular with knife owners.Simple and stylishThe handle of the knife is made of 410 stainless steel sheathing, gently contoured to the hand. Thanks to the sandblasting method, the overall structure of the knife has a very elegant and refined look.TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONSSheet infoBlade profile Drop pointBlade lock type Keretz lockKnife type foldingKnife typeFlipper machine,thumb studSteel type stainless steel - 420HCToFurther detailsClip for carrying availableMaterial treatment hardened steelHigh corrosion resistanceShort blunt resistanceCut type concaveAssist opening yes, spring-loadedApplication (normal use) EDCMetersOverall length [mm] 122Blade length [mm] 48Length after folding [mm] 74.Blade thickness [mm] 2.2Weight [g] 48
