KS1987: RJ Tactical 3.0

Kershaw Knives

The RJ Tactical 3.0 is a classic collaboration between custom knifemaker RJ Martin and Kershaw's blade engineers. It offers tactical RJ style—versatile spear-point blade, top and bottom grind, and comfortably contoured handle—at a very affordable price.

The compact 3-inch blade folds closed into a 4-inch handle, making this a right-sized tactical knike that's at home taking on tasks in the out of doors, on the jobsite, or in the office.The blade is made of quality 8Cr13MoV steel, which Kershaw heat treats to bring out its very best high-performance characteristics—the ability to take and hold an edge, strength, and hardness.

The handle is durable glass-filled nylon with comfortable finger contours and a matte look. The handle also offers heavy back jimping for an extra-secure grip. The RJ Tactical 3.0 opens with SpeedSafe assisted opening and the built-in flipper. A locking liner secures the blade open during use. We added a reversible pocketclip for left- or right-handed carry in this good-looking tactical knife.

Features

  • Flipper - May be used on either manual or assisted opening knives. The "flipper" is a protrusion on the back of the blade that the user can pull back on, or flip, in order to move the blade easily out of the handle.
  • Liner Lock - Locks the blade open during use; one side of the knife's steel "liner," the steel plate to which the handle scales are attached, moves into position behind the blade to securely lock it open.
  • Reversible - Pre-drilled holes in the handle enable the user to change either the tip position or the side on which the knife carries.
  • SpeedSafe - Assists you to open any SpeedSafe knife quickly and easily with a manual push on the thumbstud or pull back on the flipper, built into many Kershaw best sellers.

Terrific Perfect Knife
If your using a knife 🗡 for utility, this is NOT the knife. If you do a lot of cutting, "use a utility~knife" man, not this one. This knife is Classy. This knife don't play !!! I know knives well enough to know what to cut; And what Not to cut. I will be 63 on August ³rd. I have been shopping for "Thee Knife" for several years now. When I turned 60 I took a Long Serious Undeniable Inventory of my life. I value All that I own, like I never have before. I take very good care of All my belongings. I was at Tractor Supply®️ several months ago and I found this KERSHAW®️ RJ Tactical 3.0 1987. It was in the display case. I looked at it, held it and then, bought it. I knew, when I held it in my hand,, this was "thee knife." You see, much of what I have, I intend to out~live me. Remember this: Co$t has No bearing on any product that exist on 🌎...It's All About the Quality. Whether it's a knife, a fishing rod, or a gun...examine it closely. The three things to look for in a "carry on knife" are this: #1▪︎ The weight. A heavy knife causes Drag. A heavy knife also falls outta place on your belt loop and pocket. #2▪︎ The feel. Make sure it fits comfortably in your hand. And #3• The design. Make sure it's something that you feel comfortable looking at, for Many years to come. I found all 3 in this knife. I chose this knife over the other six knives that I had bought over the last 3 years. Thank you KERSHAW®️ 🙂 this knife will outlive me Much love from Spartanburg SC
