The Kershaw Launch 6 7800BLK is a tactical automatic knife , equipped with an American CPM 154 stainless steel blade , a discreet unfolding button and finely finished anodized aluminum cladding . Tool steel The knife has a 90 mm long blade made of 154CM hard tool steel , which is subjected to hardening to a hardness of 58-60 HRC, optimal for EDC knives . 154CM is a stainless steel with a molybdenum addition, with a very high carbon content, which can be described as the improved version of the 440C. American steel is especially valued for its resistance to corrosion and wear (high toughness), long maintenance of working sharpness and relative ease of sharpening. Utility blade The slender blade with a symmetrical drop-point profile is completely covered with a black protective coating DLC ​​(Diamond Like Carbon). This wear-resistant carbon coating increases the external hardness of the steel, therefore it perfectly protects the blade against corrosion, wear and scratches. Thanks to the sharp point, flat cut and a slightly rounded cutting edge, the knife penetrates easily and has excellent cutting properties . The thickness of the blade at its widest point is 3 mm, which is a compromise between the durability and functionality of the knife in everyday work. Automatic unfolding The most important element of the automatic knife is its extremely comfortable and easy unfolding system . Unlike the models with a powered blade, in an automatic knife, unfolding the blade requires only pressing the button , which is responsible for releasing the lock and activating the internal spring. Folding the blade requires pressing the button again and manually retracting the blade. Such functionality makes "vending machines" very popular among soldiers, employees of uniformed services and the rapidly growing group of EDC enthusiasts. The release button is embedded in a milled cutout, so it does not protrude above the handle, which effectively prevents accidental unfolding of the blade. It is recommended to exercise extreme caution and prudence when using the automatic knife . Aluminum 3D handle The knife has ergonomic cladding made of anodized aircraft aluminum 6061-T6, which form a monolithic whole with the backspacer. Thanks to the precise 3D processing, the handle has a very attractive design and excellent grip. The anodized coating is resistant to fading, scratching and abrasion, which guarantees an attractive appearance of the knife for a long time. Discreet carrying of the knife in the pocket is possible thanks to the standard clip that can be moved to the other side. The handle also has a hole for attaching a decorative paracord braid, which is very popular among most knife owners.
