For a fast, safe, and easy-to-use Kershaw, choose the innovative Layup. While using this folder, the DuraLock secures the blade into place. Pull back on the handle button to unlock, and your fingers will never enter the blade path while closing. Even better, the Layup combines assisted opening and KVT ball bearings for simple and reliable deployment. The assisted opening holds a bias toward the closed position and offers easy and snappy opening action. You’ll also keep a sure grip on the handle with the textured glass-filled nylon material. With so many safety features, the Layup makes it all nearly effortless.
