Kershaw 9000De Livewire Automatic 3.45" Otf Spear Point Plain Pvd Cpm Magna
The Kershaw 9000De Livewire Automatic is a double-edge out-the-front (OTF) knife built for users who want speed and cutting performance in a compact package. This made-in-the-USA automatic features a 3.45" spear point blade ground sharp on both edges, giving you twice the cutting surface in a single deploy. The blade stock is CPM MagnaCut powdered metallurgy steel—a premium choice for edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance—with a black PVD coating for extra durability against wear and the elements.
Kershaw and designer Matt Diskin engineered the Livewire with a curved, staircase-button actuator that sits naturally under your thumb for smooth, confident deployment and retraction. The handle is lightweight black anodized aluminum that won't fatigue your hand during extended use, paired with a black Cerakote-finished button for a cohesive, professional look. The reversible deep-carry pocket clip lets you set up left or right carry to match your draw preference and pocket depth.
This is a compact, purpose-built automatic knife for folks who value fast blade access and reliable construction. It's comfortable to carry thanks to its light weight and low-profile clip, and the double-edge design makes it efficient when you need real cutting power without fumbling for a second tool. As always with automatic knives, verify your local and state laws before purchase—regulations on ownership and carry vary by jurisdiction.
