Kershaw 1370 Camshaft EDC 3" Folding Clip Point Plain Stonewashed 4Cr14 Blade, Black GFN Handle
The Kershaw 1370 Camshaft is a compact EDC folding knife built for everyday carry in the truck, shop, or field. Its 3-inch clip-point blade combines piercing tip geometry with a subtle belly curve for clean slicing work—everything from cutting cord and packaging to processing game or fish. The stonewashed 4Cr14 steel finish resists corrosion and hides the scratches that come with real use, so your knife looks practical, not neglected.
What sets the Camshaft apart is its thoughtful design language. The contoured black glass-filled nylon handle sits comfortably in your palm with enough texture to maintain a secure grip even when wet or greasy. SpeedSafe assisted opening gets the blade out quickly when you need it; flip the oversized flipper and the knife does the rest of the work. The custom pivot design and decorative backspacer give this working knife a little character without the price tag of premium blade steel.
The reversible pocket clip is engineered for deep carry, so the knife rides low and discreet in your pants pocket or shirt. Clips attach to either side, making it left- or right-hand friendly depending on how you carry. This is the knife that earns its spot in your rotation not through flashy marketing but through honest capability and value—the kind of blade that proves you don't need exotic materials or a premium brand name to have a reliable cutting tool within reach.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Camshaft good for camping and outdoor use?
Yes. The 3-inch clip-point blade handles camp tasks like food prep, kindling, and rope work. The stonewashed steel finish resists corrosion in wet conditions, and the textured handle maintains grip even when damp. It's a solid companion for backcountry trips or base camp.
Can I carry this knife left-handed?
The pocket clip is fully reversible, so you can mount it on either side of your pocket for left- or right-hand carry. The blade geometry and flipper work equally well for either hand orientation.
What does "assisted opening" mean, and is it legal?
Assisted opening means that once you flip the blade slightly, a spring mechanism completes the deployment. Kershaw SpeedSafe knives are legal in most states and countries, but knife laws vary by location. Check your local regulations before carrying.
What's included in the box?
