The massive tanto-profile blade has a striking BlackWash (black oxidation) finish, which effectively masks any scratches or abrasions to the blade from use. The tanto type blade has a straight cutting edge with a geometric kink completely devoid of belly, which contributes to the high strength of the hilt. Such a design guarantees efficient cutting, high tip strength, and eye-catching styling. The thickness of the blade at its widest point is 2.8 mm, which is a compromise between durability and functionality of the knife in everyday work.

The blade is unfolded with one hand using a milled flipper, a solution convenient for both right and left-handed users. The opening process is facilitated by the SpeedSafe assist mechanism. When the flipper flipper is pressed, the assist mechanism activates an internal spring that dynamically unfolds the blade, making the knife ready for use in a fraction of a second. Once the blade is unfolded, it is securely locked with a liner-lock mechanism. The steel locking bar provides a high level of safety, and its operation is very intuitive and convenient. A reliable lock is an important element calling for the functionality and safety of the folding knife.
The handle of the knife is formed by liners made in 3D technology from black G10 composite. The glass-epoxy laminate used is characterized by light weight, high mechanical strength, resistance to water, temperature change, as well as many acids and solvents. The Kershaw Flatbed has striking embellishments in the form of a skeletonized frame attached to the lining and a milled spacer finished with the BlackWash technique. The profiled shape of the grip, fine grooving make this small knife very secure in the hand and comfortable for everyday use.
Discreetly carrying the knife in your pocket is made possible by a high-set clip with an attachment option on both sides of the handle.
