The Kershaw Blur 1670BLK is a tough, everyday folding knife built for hunters, outdoors people, and anyone who needs a reliable blade on the job site or trail. This is one of the original designs that put the Blur on the map—a no-nonsense folder with a 3.4-inch blade that handles slicing, piercing, and general camp tasks with equal authority. The slightly curved edge geometry gives you both control and bite, whether you're processing game, cutting rope, or tackling routine cutting chores in the field.
The 14C28N stainless steel blade comes finished with a black DLC (diamond-like carbon) coating that hardens the edge, resists corrosion, and gives the knife a purpose-built appearance. The handle is anodized 6061-T6 aluminum—the same material used in aircraft construction—so you're getting genuine durability without unnecessary weight. Kershaw added Trac-Tec grip-tape handle inserts to ensure your hold stays firm even in wet or gloved conditions, and the inset liner lock keeps the blade secure when it's deployed.
One-handed opening is handled by SpeedSafe assisted opening: a quick push on the thumb stud fires the blade out smoothly and reliably. The reversible pocket clip lets you carry tip-up or tip-down depending on your preference, and a pre-drilled lanyard hole is there if you want extra insurance against loss. This is a folder that works as hard as you do.
