TUALATIN, OR—Kershaw’s two new Orange County Chopper knives will definitely get your motor running. From freeway to driveway, they’re born to be wild—and to quickly become some of your favorite tools.
This new series includes the Orange County Chopper Leek (Model 1660OCC) and the Orange County Chopper Blur (Model 1670OCC). Both were inspired by Orange County Chopper’s Web Bike with its spider web spokes and webbed paint job—the product of a sophisticated computer modeling process.
These new spider web-inspired models feature premium 13C26 stainless steel blades. The blades hone to an incredibly sharp edge, re-sharpen easily, and strongly resist corrosion. For additional performance—and sheer good looks—the OCC Leek features matte black Tungsten DLC coating on the blade.
The OCC Leek features the OCC spider-and-web image CNC machined from 410 stainless steel and secured on top of the Leek’s basic black anodized aluminum handle.

It comes with a secure locking liner and a removable/reversible pocket clip for tip-up or tip-down carry.
The OCC Blur provides the multi-tasking ability and super-secure grip of all Kershaw Blurs—but with a look that’ll really start your ignition. The handle provides the famous super-secure grip of all Kershaw Blurs, but the new OCC Blur’s anodized aluminum handle features a raised spider web machined into it, while a long-legged spider and the OCC chopper logo add to the knife’s revved-up looks. Naturally, the OCC Blur also features the SpeedSafe manual assisted opening system.
The OCC Leek measures 4 inches, closed, and weighs just 3.1 oz. It retails for $84.95. The OCC Blur is slightly larger at 4 1/2 inches, closed, and weighing in at 4.2 oz. It retails for $99.95. Both OCC knives include a handsome gift tin and are

TUALATIN, OR—Some hunters prefer the look and feel of a traditional knife—without a gut hook. Yet they know how handy a gut hook can be when field dressing game.
That’s where Kershaw’s new Zipper (Model 2520) comes in.

TUALATIN, OR—Sword makers have long known that the ideal blade is often a combination of different steels, each chosen for its unique properties. That’s the idea behind Kershaw’s new composite blade knives, including the Composite Leek (Model 1660CB) and the Composite Junkyard Dog (Model 1725CB).
The two steels in Kershaw’s new composite blade knives retain their individual qualities, yet interact with each other and work in concert. The patent-pending technology that makes the modern composite blade possible delivers exactly the type of steel you need where you need it.
The Composite Junkyard Dog II features a combination of Sandvik 13C26 and CPM-D2 steels. The 13C26 provides a tough spine for the blade, while the CPM-D2 offers a cutting edge that sharpens easily, retains its edge, and is corrosion resistant. The steels are joined in an “interlock” pattern that enhances the knife’s unique look. The new Junkyard Dog II is completed with a textured black G-10 handle in the ergonomic JYD style.
The Composite Leek offers the pocket-perfect size and styling of the Ken Onion Leek combined with our high-performance composite blade. It features the same two high-performance steels married in an even higher performance blade. The blade is paired with an all-stainless-steel handle for durability and good looks.
The Composite Leek also has the SpeedSafe ambidextrous manual assisted opening system, while the Composite JYD has the Flipper opening system. Both Leek and JYD feature a secure frame lock and come with a removable/reversible pocket clip for tip-up or tip-down carry.
The Composite Leek measures 4 inches, closed, and weighs just 2.9 oz. It retails for $99.95. The Composite JYD is slightly larger at 4 7/8 inches, closed, and weighing in at 5.2 oz. It retails for $119.95.

But this Chive offers lightweight anodized aluminum handles in a soft, brushed pink color—fashion’s biggest trend. And pink’s not just for women anymore, either. Saavy guys are thinking pink today, too.
Of course it’s not just the color that makes this Chive special. The right-sized Chive features a 1 15/16-inch blade of premium high-carbon 420HC stainless steel bead-blasted to a satin finish. The 6061-T6 anodized aluminum handles provide light weight strength and are highly scratch resistant.

The patented Speed-Safe assisted-opening mechanism gives the Chive a significant “wow factor” as well. This proprietary technology enables the knife user to open the knife with one hand. A short push on the thumb stud moves the blade into position smoothly and easily. When the blade is opened a portion of the frame moves into place to lock the blade into place for safe, secure use. Made in the USA, retail is $54.95.

TUALATIN, OR—You say you’re tired of the same-old, same-old when it comes to the color of your pocketknife? Then take a look at newest members of the Kershaw Ken Onion Leek series.
The Rainbow Leek with partial serration (Model 1660VIBST) features a blade and handles with a vibrant rainbow finish. The Pink Leek (Model 1660PINK) boasts a fashionable pink finish to its anodized aluminum handles.
In addition to the striking colors, the new Leeks offer premium Sandvik 13C26 stainless-steel blades for easy sharpening and wear resistance, as well as Kershaw’s SpeedSafe ambidextrous assisted opening system. The system enables users to open the knife with the index finger of the left or right hand, or with the handy thumb stud. The Rainbow Leek offers a secure frame lock, while the Pink Leek is secured with a locking liner.
The partially serrated Rainbow Leek’s finish is high-polish, rainbow titanium-oxide. Titanium oxide is a low-temperature PVD film that adds a durable, decorative, metallic coating to the Leek’s blade and handle. Though the coating is just one-half micron thick, it offers tough, ceramic-like wear properties. The rainbow colors are made by the application of electric currents in different intensities and duration to the titanium oxide. Without dye or pigments, this anodizing produces a literal rainbow of scratch-resistant colors and gives the Rainbow Leek a unique finish unmatched by other surface-finishing processes. The Pink Leeks also offers a scratch resistant anodized surface, but on light weight aluminum handles.
Both knives measure four inches when closed and have a three-inch blade. Both also come with a removable and reversible pocket clip. The handles are drilled for both tip-up and tip-down carry. Just unscrew the clip and turn it 180° to reverse the carry position. The partially serrated Rainbow Leek retails for $99.95 and the Pink Leek for $74.95.
These two new additions to the Leek series are built to maintain Kershaw’s worldwide reputation for quality and innovation. The company prides itself on using the highest quality materials and state-of-the-art techniques to produce knives and other cutting tools that are prized throughout the world.

TUALATIN, OR—A dynamic new knife from Kershaw Knives has been
named The Blade Magazine’s 2005 Overall Knife of the Year.
The winning blade is Kershaw’s Offset (Model 1597). The Offset was
chosen for the award based on a range of criteria—from design,
innovation, and function to craftsmanship and quality.
The uniquely styled Offset takes advantage of the latest technology in
order to create its award-winning design. It features rugged and complex
blade geometry that wouldn’t have been possible just a few years ago.
Now, thanks to state-of-the-art Metal Injection Molding (MIM) and hot
isostatic pressing, the Offset can offer both a unique blade shape and
the strength and durability Kershaw customers have come to expect.
The blade is made of 440C stainless steel and features a black matte
finish—along with Kershaw’s famous “sharpest-out-of-the-box” edge.
But the exceptional blade is just the beginning. The Offset also features
the latest SpeedSafe configuration. It’s Kershaw’s new “Double Pumper”
design and it boasts two torsion bars to ensure easy assisted opening
for folding knives with larger blades.
To keep the blade safely locked when not in use, the Offset also has
Kershaw’s convenient and secure Stud Lock.
To match the drama of the blade and its technology, the Offset offers a
“Jackson-Pollack-esque” splattered paint handle in 3-D machined, 6061
T6 anodized aluminum. Made in the USA, the Offset retails for $299.95.

maintain Kershaw’s worldwide reputation for quality and innovation. The

the-art techniques to produce knives and other cutting tools that are
prized throughout the world.

TUALATIN, OR—Yes, it’s got a dramatic, out-of-this-world look. But in
this case, E.T. doesn’t stand for “extraterrestrial.” It stands for External
Toggle lock. And this unique new knife from Kershaw Knives has just
been named The Blade Magazine’s 2005 Most Innovative American
Design.
Kershaw’s E.T. (Model 1900) was selected for the award based on a
range of criteria—from its innovative design and function to its
craftsmanship and quality.
The External Toggle lock is Kershaw’s newest technology for securing a
blade. This new lock provides the highest level of security. Fold the
blade in, engage the safety, and the blade simply cannot be deployed—
no matter how or where the user carries it.
The E.T. even takes advantage of this fact with its built-in carabiner
function. The user can clip the E.T. to a belt loop so the knife’s always
handy, but with confidence that the blade could never accidentally
deploy.
The E.T. features a high-quality Sandvik 13C26 stainless-steel blade.
The open-architecture handle of 6061 T6 anodized aluminum makes it
lightweight and easy to carry, too. Made in the USA, the E.T. retails for
$99.95.
The new Model 1900, E.T. is built to maintain Kershaw’s worldwide
reputation for quality and innovation. The company prides itself on using
the highest quality materials and state-of-the-art techniques to produce
knives and other cutting tools that are prized throughout the world.

choice in interchangeable blade knives.
Now Kershaw introduces another in this successful series—the Alaskan
Blade Trader (Model 1098AK). The Alaska Blade Trader enables
hunters to carry the complete range of blades needed to field-dress
game—without having to pack four separate knives.
The Alaskan Blade Trader includes a hunting blade, a skinning blade
with gut hook, and a chromium-plated saw blade, plus the unique Blade
Trader handle. Each of the premium quality blades included with the
Alaskan Blade Trader is hand-honed to Kershaw’s famous ‘shaving
sharp’ edge. But the secret to the tool’s versatility is in the handle and its
exclusive Quik-Lock mechanism.
Quik-Lock enables the user to safely change and secure any blade
required in seconds. The ergonomically designed handle, made of
advanced co-polymer compounds, provides unmatched comfort, control,
and a fatigue minimizing, non-slip grip, even in wet conditions. And
everything fits in a compact, high quality, saddle leather sheath that
attaches conveniently to belt or pack.
The saw blade features a patented tooth design that ‘planes’ through
bone on the pull stroke with a minimum of resistance or grabbing.
Fatigue is reduced, too. It’s ideal for cutting through bones or wood. The
skinning blade with gut hook is specifically designed to simplify field-
dressing game. And finally, the hunting blade is finely honed to cut
through tough hide and perform a variety of all-purpose tasks with ease.

superior performance and add to a satisfying hunting experience. It
retails for $64.95.
