The Kershaw Scallion 1620FL is an EDC folding knife that utilises a 420HC stainless steel blade, a mechanism to support the blade opening and a lock with the tried and tested frame-lock.Lightweight and practical designThe Kershaw Scallion is designed for everyday use, clearly accentuated by its compact size, lightweight construction and typically functional style.The 61mm long blade is made from the popular 420HC stainless steel. This American steel is distinguished by its increased carbon and chromium content, which ensures 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 durability and easy sharpening with just a single whetstone.The slim blade has a drop point profile for easy use, with an elegant sandblasted finish. Thanks to the narrow tip, concave cutting and the use of a cutting edge with a gentle curvature, the knife has good cutting properties and the blade does not stick to the material.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.Convenient to useThe blade can be opened with one hand in two ways : with a mart flipper or with a double-sided pin, allowing you to choose the handle according to your preference.Both solutions are convenient for both right and left-handed users and also allow you to carry the knife comfortably and safely in your pocket.Blade opening support mechanismThe opening process is assisted by the SpeedSafe support mechanism. When you press down the flipper 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, effectively protects against accidental blade bending.A sliding latch on the top of the knife prevents accidental opening of the blade in the folded position.Carrying clipThe knife can be carried discreetly in a pocket thanks to the profiled clip (right side) . On the other side of the handle is a hole for attaching a decorative paracord braid, very popular with knife owners.Simple and stylishThe handle of the knife is made of 410 stainless steel sheathing, gently profiled to fit the hand. The handle is finished using a sandblasting method, similar to the blade, which makes the knife very stylish and elegant.TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONSSheet informationBlade profile Drop pointBlade lock type Keretz lockKnife type foldingKnife type flipper machine,thumb studSteel type stainless steel - 420HCToFurther detailsClip for carrying is availableBlade material metal - stainless steelCorrosion resistance highDull resistance averageCut type concaveAssist opening yes, spring-loadedApplication (normal use) EDCMetersOverall length [mm] 146Blade length [mm] 61Length after folding [mm] 89Blade thickness [mm] 2.8Weight [g] 82Manufacturer's dataManufacturer Kershaw, USA
