Cons: Pocket Clip
Cool backup
I found that this knife will do most of my daily cutting tasks. I hate to say “ cute “ but this knife really is! The California legal blade snaps open with authority and keeps an edge a long time. My only issue is the pocket clip. Not a fan, but it dosen’t impact the overall use, This is my first Kershaw Launch but probably not the last. Good job, Kershaw and KC!

So before I bought this knife I did a lot of research and found out 2 things. Kershaws automatics were very reliable and in the state of California automatics have to 2" or less. This guy popped up along my internet adventures and it checked all my boxes. Automatic- check Reliable brand- check Not eight thousand dollars- check Beautiful colorway- check. As a restaurant manager I use this knife every single day to open boxes and cut off the flaps. It's been 7months ive never sharpened it and it cuts the same as day 1. The mechanism is so smooth and has never once opened in my pocket. The button has just enough resistance to not open spontaneously, but not so much that it's inconvenient to open. The spring action is fast and locks without question every. Single. Time. It's also super easy to close one-handed. After all my research I knew I'd like this knife, I never thought id love it as much as I do. This knife is a 10/10 edc for me. Tempted to buy 3 more of them incase I lose it.

This knife has a strong fast spring and no shake in the blade.
