The Kershaw Gravel 2065 is a compact EDC knife with an 8Cr13MoV steel blade, a blade unfolding mechanism and a solid frame-lock. Gravel 2065 combines all the elements that should be found in a real edc knife: functionality, safety and durability. Proven steel The 84 mm long knife is made of the popular 8Cr13MoV steel, hardened to 57-59 HRC . This Chinese steel has good corrosion resistance and hardenability comparable to AUS6. The 8Cr13MoV steel blade is perfect for everyday use , due to corrosion resistance, good sharpness and easy sharpening, for which a pocket whetstone is enough. Utility blade The wide blade has a reverse tanto profile , with a distinctly raised false blade that gives it a shark-like shape. Thanks to the use of a sharp point, a concave cut and a cutting edge with a strong curvature, the blade is durable, penetrates well and provides efficient cutting. The back of the ridge has been cut slightly , creating a place to rest the finger for precise cutting. An additional point of support is provided by transverse cutters at the base of the spine. The thickness of the blade at its widest point is 2.8 mm, which is a compromise between the durability and functionality of the knife in everyday work. The blade and handle have a BlackWash finish. Black oxidation gives an effective look and partially protects against scratches formed during use. Comfort of use The blade can be quickly and conveniently unfolded with one hand using a fin / pinball machine . The operation takes place in a very natural and easy way and enables comfortable use of the knife by right and left-handed people. A mechanism supporting the unfolding of the blade The opening process is facilitated by the SpeedSafe support mechanism . When you press down on the pinball blade or pry the pin, the support mechanism activates an internal spring that dynamically unfolds the blade, making the knife ready for use in a fraction of a second . Robust lock The monolithic frame-lock blockade, considered one of the most durable locking mechanisms, protects against accidental folding of the blade . The lock, like the flipper and the pin, can be operated with one hand. Simple and stylish The handle of the knife is made of smooth stainless steel cladding . The manufacturer gave up milling and texturing the handle. The element that provides a stable grip is the notch for the index finger and the flipper, which, after unfolding the blade, acts as a handguard. The black design of the knife provides a modern and effective look . Discreet carrying of the knife in the pocket is possible thanks to a spring clip, with the possibility of fixing in 2 positions (left and right). The handle also has a hole for attaching a decorative paracord braid, which is very popular among most knife owners.
