KS7007: 7007 Natrix Folding Knife

Kershaw Knives

The Kershaw Natrix is based on brother brand Zero Tolerance's 0770, which itself was inspired by the award-winning ZT 0777.

Kershaw's Natrix features a drop-point blade of 8Cr13MoV that offers solid performance with good edge-holding and easy resharpening. The stonewashed blade finish looks good and even helps hide use scratches. Accessed with the built-in flipper and KVT ball-bearings makes it easy to open the Natrix one-handed so it's always ready when you need it. The handle is lightweight G-10, 3D-machined and chamfered to fit comfortably in the hand. An oversized pivot provides an attention-grabbing detail on the front of the knife, while Kershaw's patented Sub-Frame Lock secures the blade and provides a dramatic, contrasting line on the back.

The Sub-Frame Lock design also enables Kershaw to lighten the weight of the Natrix, so that you get a big, useful blade in a knife that still weighs in at a mere 2.9 ounces. A decorative aluminum backspacer lightens the load even further and adds another embellishment. Finally, a custom-designed deep-carry pocket clip echoes the lines of a special recess machined into the handle to complete this good-looking 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.
  • Sub-Frame Lock: One side of a lightweight handle, or frame, is fitted with a steel plate integral to the frame; it is the part of the frame that moves behind the blade to lock it into position during use. Sub-Frame Lock knives can be larger and lighter knife yet with an extremely secure lock.
  • Reversible: Pre-drilled holes in the handle enable the user to change either the tip position or the side on which the knife carries.

Worth It At Sale Price
The knife is nice looking and I love the snappy opening. It came sharp, but not shaving sharp. It took a little work to get it real sharp. I think it may be a function of the blade metal. I have never owned 8cr before and, so have never sharpened it before. I like the light weight and the pocket clip. It has a very strong lockup and no blade play.What I don't like about it are two things. First, it can be hard to push the lock bar out of the way to close it. It takes a strong thumb and the exact right angle at which to apply the force. It may also require practice. I did find it is much easier to close in my left hand than my right. I am ambi, so I am less bothered by this. Perhaps lefties will enjoy this knife more? The other thing I don't like about this knife is the absence of any strength in the handle; it seems to be lacking full metal liners. This explains the lightness of the knife. It just feels less solid than most of the rest of my collection. But, for my intended uses, it is constructed solid enough. Just don't expect it to be really beefy.On the other hand, it has enough positives that I am satisfied with the purchase at the sale price of $26. Had I paid the regular price of $48, I would a lot less pleased. Had I paid the MSRP of $75, I would have been really upset by this knife.I don't expect this knife to be a part of my EDC rotation, but it is nice enough to be around and part of my collection.

Meh...
I got this because it was a good cost. On the plus side the blade was razor sharp out of the box, the knife is super light, and the assisted open works like a charm. Unfortunately, the subframe lock leaves quite a bit to be desired. The lock pushes much further over than a regular liner or frame lock. The lack of jimping and the small gap between the lock and the opposite scale makes it hard to get a decent purchase on the lock tab making it quite a bit more difficult to close. I really have to dig a nail in there to release the lock. If I would have paid MSRP of $70 I would have returned it. Probably won't make it into my regular EDC rotation much. The "Lock Ease of Use" should definitely be an option in the Cons column for this knife.

Very nice budget knife!
I have a few Kershaw assisted opening knives in my collection. This version with the KVT bearings opens as fast with the slightest flick as any of them. The best part though is when you close it it codes like a normal non assisted knife. You’re not fighting the torsion spring to close the blade. The KVT bearings are much much nicer than assisted opening and I’ll take these any day of the week over the assisted openers. It also weighs next to nothing! I have a Kershaw Link and it feels like a tank next to this. Granted it’s a much heavier duty knife too but still. This weights about the same as my Spyderco Para 3 lightweight and that’s a VERY light knife and a smaller knife. Overall this is a very very nice knife for the money. I can’t think of anything out there in the $35 range from any brand that would compare to this. On a side note Kershaw doesn’t mark the boxes in ANY way which ones are speed assist and which are KVT bearings (it just says “7007 Natrix” on the sticker on the box) so the fist one I received was a assisted opening model even though I ordered the KVT bearing version and it even stated that in the packing sheet(make sure you read the description because they make these knives in both styles!). One quick call to knife centerand Malachi in the service department had me squared away with a prepaid return label and an apology. Not even a week later and I had the correct model in my hands and Malachi had personally opened the box and double checked that this one was the correct one! There’s not much customer service like that left in this world anymore and it was so nice to see that! A big thank you to Malachi and the team at knife center!
