Kershaw Iridium Review

As a collector I wanted one of each brands first knock off axis lock ... This one sold before I got in hand . Looking forward to it. I wonder if they will keep them all USA because it's a way better value then the cheapest Grigory bms

Hey Kevin. Do you think this axis lock fails in a self defense situation? If you hit the bottom of the knife on a hard surface it disengages the lock. Just wanted to get your opinion. I actually love this knife.

The D2 on my Civivi is razor sharp. It’s easy to sharpen. I like the new Kershaw.

I didn't like it and returned the knife back to the seller. It is too small for my hand.
I own Cold Steel Code 4 and I really like it, but Kershaw Irridium is too small, almost unusable for me

Go ahead. Choke up on that handle a little more. That Grip is going to gain a whole lot more traction once you put your finger into the heel of that blade.

I love the aesthetic and action but the ergonomics is meh 🫤. The covalent have a better lock bar action although it the blade started striking the center spacer on mine after a good amount of use and a bunch of fidgeting.

That M4 steel on that benchmade Freek will rust just as easy as D2 steel. And the Freek is what, like 4× more expensive than the iridium. What a joke.

seems we are parking in the same garage here - i never liked the 940 design, but i love the Iridium.

Exclusive to Kershaw's website is the Iridium in 14c28n bladesteel with a topo aluminum handle and a G10 back spacer. Was $79, but after 4/17 it went up to $99. Hopefully they'll offer it through retailers for a more reasonable price point.

You sir, are a reliable knife reviewer. 👍👍

I think prying anything with a pocket knife is idiotic. I agree with metal complex.
