KS2057: 2057 Celestion DuraLock Flipper Knife
Kershaw Knives
The Kershaw Celestion is a capable everyday carry folder that packs reliable performance into a lightweight, compact footprint. Its 2.75 inch drop point blade is crafted from D2 tool steel, a highly popular choice for daily tasks due to its excellent edge retention and wear resistance, and is finished with a clean satin finish. Deployment is smooth and fast thanks to the manual KVT ball-bearing pivot, while the ambidextrous DuraLock crossbar lock secures the blade open and allows for safe, easy closing without placing your fingers in the path of the edge. The handle is built with 3D-machined black G10 scales with a sleek polished finish that offer a comfortable, secure grip, and at just 1.7 ounces, this knife carries effortlessly when paired with its reversible deep-carry pocket clip.

Just the knife I was looking for...
I have been looking for a lightweight EDC for a while. While there have been several knife releases that fit the physical needs (under 3" blade, under 2 oz weight, with lock), they ranged in price from $120 to $200. More than I was willing to spend.Then came the Celestion. It is everything that I have been looking for. The only negative that I see in the knife is the smooth handle. If you are needing grip, this knife doesn't have it. But that isn't critical to my needs, so it is a keeper.
