Kershaw Leek 1660SWBLK 3" Stonewashed 14C28N Steel Blade, Black Anodized Aluminum Handle, Pocket Clip

The Kershaw Leek 1660SWBLK is a refined everyday carry knife that proves tactical gear doesn't need to shout. This 3-inch stonewashed blade pocket knife delivers the slim, purposeful design Leek fans have come to expect, with the added appeal of a blacked-out finish that looks as good in a boardroom as it does on a campsite. Built from 14C28N stainless steel, the blade balances edge retention with easy resharpening—ideal for the shooter, hunter, or outdoorswoman who expects their tools to earn their keep without fuss.

The modified drop-point profile makes this Leek a capable slicer for camp tasks, game processing, or general cutting work, while the slim tip excels at detail work and precise piercing—handy whether you're opening ammo boxes or field dressing game. The black anodized aluminum handle is comfortable in hand and engineered to resist the scratches that come with real use, keeping that sleek aesthetic intact over time. Kershaw's assisted opening mechanism with flipper activation gets the blade into action fast, and the Tip-Lock securely locks the blade closed when you're carrying it.

This is a made-in-the-USA knife from a brand that understands working professionals and outdoor enthusiasts—no unnecessary weight, no gimmicks, just a well-thought-out tool that fits your pocket and does the job. The stonewashed finish hides carry marks naturally, so your knife looks purpose-worn rather than beat-up. Add the included pocket clip, and you've got a knife that rides discreetly wherever your day takes you.
