The Kershaw Conduit is a simple and functional folding knife. Made of 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, with a Drop Point head and the proven Liner Lock, it is a perfect addition to your EDC kit.
Kershaw Conduit folding knife - strong steel and Drop Point blade
The Drop Point profile is one of the most common head shapes. The pronounced curvature of the blade's belly and the gently sloping back towards the tip make the blade's stab robust, and the blade has good cutting properties. The Drop Point will perform well both at home or at work, as well as during a trip out of town.
The 76-millimeter long head of the knife is made of 8Cr13MoV steel hardened to 57-59 HRC. The steel is resistant to corrosion, and its hardenability is similar to AUS8. Consequently, it holds its sharpness for a long time, and once it loses it, it can be sharpened with the simplest sharpener.
The blade is colored black. Its back is partially notched, which makes it easier to manipulate the knife.
Kershaw Conduit folding knife - spring-assisted flipper
Thanks to the flipper and the spring-assisted flipper, the Conduit opens very smoothly. A slight movement of the finger is enough to make the blade pop out of the body.
Liner Lock and steel body
The American manufacturer has equipped the knife with a Liner Lock type lock. This is a popular and proven mechanism. The body of the folder is sheathed in black liners made of fiberglass-reinforced nylon. A hole for a lanyard or key ring has been drilled in the bottom of the handle. The rough texture of the facings makes the knife feel secure in the hand.
Kershaw Conduit - a candidate for an EDC kit
The above-mentioned features, including the high-set and double-sided clip, allowing the folder to be carried in a pants pocket or backpack, make the Kershaw Conduit an excellent candidate for an EDC kit. Elegance, functionality and an affordable price should attract the attention of both laymen and those who know a lot about knives.
