The Kershaw Heist folding knife is a versatile and handy tool. The D2 steel is corrosion resistant, and the thumb stud and double-sided Bar Lock make the knife suitable for right and left-handed users.
D2 steel and Drop Point head
The 78-millimeter-long Drop Point profile blade, with its pronounced curve of the blade belly and a ridge that gently slopes toward the tip, has a sturdy stab and good cutting qualities. This makes the Kershaw Heist an all-purpose knife for simple jobs around the house, garden out of town.
The D2 steel used in the production of the Kershaw Heist combines a high resistance to dulling with satisfactory stainless steel. It is also characterized by aggressiveness of cutting.
Stonewash
Thanks to the Stonewash finish, the blade is covered with irregular, fine scratches that mask well subsequent scratches that occur during normal use of the knife.

The folder can be opened with a double-sided thumb stud. Also the DuraLock lock, similar to the otherwise well-known Axis Lock, is double-sided. The system is based on an omega-type spring and is secure. The lock is conveniently operated with the thumb.
Kershaw Heist folding knife - linings
The folding knife's steel body is sheathed by liners made of durable fiberglass-reinforced nylon. Thanks to the rough texture, the knife fits well in the hand.
Kershaw Shoreline - a discreet companion
The above features, including a high-set and wide clip that can be attached to either side of the tool, make the Kershaw Heist folding knife an ideal part of an EDC kit.
