Kershaw Bracket FAQ

The Kershaw Bracket is an upsized evolution of the popular Static folder, pairing a substantial 3.4-inch cleaver blade with a SpeedSafe assisted opening mechanism. This series is designed for users who need more handle real estate and cutting surface than a standard compact cleaver provides.

How does the Bracket differ from the Kershaw Static?
The Kershaw Bracket is the XL version of the Static, featuring a longer 3.4-inch blade and a larger handle profile. While both share a cleaver-style blade, the Bracket adds a G10 front handle scale for better grip and a decorative stainless steel pivot overlay that provides a more refined aesthetic.
What kind of blade steel does the Kershaw Bracket use?
The Bracket series uses 8Cr series stainless steel, which provides a reliable balance of toughness and corrosion resistance at a budget-friendly price point. The blades feature a stonewashed finish that is highly effective at hiding scratches and wear from daily use.
Is the Kershaw Bracket a good choice for large hands?
Yes, the Kershaw Bracket is specifically designed to accommodate larger hands with its extended handle and generous forward finger choil. This choil allows users to choke up on the blade for precision work while still providing enough room for a secure four-finger grip.
Does the Kershaw Bracket have assisted opening?
The Bracket utilizes SpeedSafe assisted opening to ensure the blade deploys quickly and consistently with a single hand. By using a flipper tab to overcome the resistance of the internal torsion bar, the blade snaps into place and is secured by a sturdy stainless steel frame lock.
What are the benefits of the Bracket cleaver blade?
The cleaver blade shape on the Bracket excels at heavy-duty slicing and utility cuts where a straight edge is preferred. Its aggressive profile is paired with relatively thin blade stock, making it a highly capable slicer for everyday tasks rather than just a chunky aesthetic piece.
How do you carry the Kershaw Bracket?
The Bracket features a reversible deep-carry pocket clip that allows the knife to sit low and discreetly in the pocket. It is designed for tip-up carry and can be swapped for either right- or left-handed use, and the handle includes a dedicated lanyard hole for additional carry options.
