Each of the Kershaw Launch 1 features a stylish and unique integral backspacer pattern where the two pieces of aluminum connect and the USA flag is laser-engraved on the back side of the handle. In tandem with the reversible tip-up carry pocket clip, the Kershaw Launch 1 model is outfitted with a pass-through hole hidden at the base on the handle for lanyard attachment.
The Kershaw Launch Series high-performance, USA-made automatics that punch way above their price point! Shop the whole selection!
This thing snaps open, make sure you have a good grip. It is sharp, feels good in the hand. Quality knife made in the USA. Might get an aftermarket deep carry pocket clip, but thats just my preference.
I have had this knife for about a week so far and it is working perfectly. The knife snaps open with a ton of power. I work in a warehouse for my job, and use this knife to cut through cardboard, tape, and plastic. The knife came razor sharp, and is still sharp enough to cut the hairs on my arm. I bought this knife when it was on sale for $80, but even at $100 this knife is well worth the money. Great steel, and also made in the USA! Kershaw also has a warranty, so you can send it to them to get resharpened. Will absolutely be getting another one when I get the money to do so. 10/10
I have wanted a Kershaw Launch for a while now and I was ecstatic when it finally arrived. The action is really smooth and it came out of the box razor sharp. 7/7.
The Launch series is fantastic and this particular Launch 1 is an exceptional EDC blade!! Gets Razor Sharp, Stays Razor Sharp, IS Razor Sharp!!! Craftsmanship is outstanding — Made in USA!!! Blade HQ is alwsys awesome! Ordered it on a Friday night and it was in my mail box (in Texas) on the following. Monday afternoon — Now that’s some hypersonic, supersonic, speed of light shipping! THANKS Blade HQ!
This knife is a great value. The CPM154 steel is great for EDC, and Kershaw customer service is amazing. Even though the handle is a little slick, it still looks great.
Ordered it and received it in a very timely manner! Knife is fantastic, blue looks much better in person. Action is very nice, no lock up issues, such as those found in the early models. Super snappy and sharp, for the price it's a steal and I would recommend to anyone who can carry an auto.
Good Kershaw quality. Fast SMOOTH auto action. But it is a really deep blade. Pics don't really convey how deep the blade is. Wouldn't really say this is an EDC. As it is pretty large. Sits comfortably in had tho and lets be honest with a CPM154 blade how can you not like it? Great knife worth the price. Just be aware the blade is deep than it looks.
