Kershaw Dividend Assisted Folding Knife, Drop Point Blade

The Kershaw Dividend assisted folding knife brings a unique dual-steel design to your everyday carry or field work. Built on Kershaw's proprietary Composite Blade Technology, this drop point folder joins CPM D2 and Böhler N690 steels in a distinctive "toothlike" pattern—N690 on the spine for corrosion resistance and hardness, D2 on the cutting edge for toughness and edge retention. It's the kind of thoughtful engineering that separates a knife you reach for from one that stays in the drawer.

The assisted SpeedSafe opening mechanism deploys the 3-inch blade quickly with a flipper, while the liner lock keeps it secure in your hand. The handle is machined 6061-T6 aluminum with olive anodizing—lightweight, durable, and built to weather seasons of real use. At 2.8 ounces and 7.25 inches overall, it sits comfortably in a pocket without bulk. The 4-position deep-carry clip lets you dial in carry angle and hand (right or left, tip-up or down), so it works however you prefer to pack it.

Made in the USA and backed by Kershaw's limited lifetime warranty, the Dividend is equally at home on the trail, at camp, or in your everyday pocket. If you appreciate a knife that's as thoughtful in design as it is functional in the field, this one deserves a closer look.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the composite blade special on this assisted folding knife?

The Kershaw Dividend uses a dual-steel composite blade that pairs Böhler N690 (upper spine) for corrosion resistance and hardness with CPM D2 (cutting edge) for wear resistance and edge retention. The two steels are permanently joined in a distinctive "toothlike" pattern, giving you the best properties of each steel in one blade.

Is the pocketclip configurable for left-handed carry?

Yes. The 4-position deep-carry pocketclip allows you to configure the knife for right or left-hand carry, and you can also choose tip-up or tip-down orientation, so it adapts to however you prefer to carry it.

What's the closed length and how does it carry in a pocket?

The Dividend closes to 4.25 inches and weighs just 2.8 ounces, making it a lightweight everyday carry option. The deep-carry clip keeps it low and discreet in a pocket, and the compact profile means minimal bulk.

Is this knife made in the USA?

Yes, the Kershaw Dividend is made in the USA and backed by Kershaw's limited lifetime warranty.
