DESCRIPTION
Designed by Matt Diskin, the Launch 12CA is the baby brother of Kershaw’s popular Launch 8. Inspired by the look of classic Italian stilettos, the Launch 12CA offers a stiletto style for a new generation. More compact than the original Launch 8, the Launch 12CA weighs just 1.9 ounces, making it exceptionally easy to carry. The slim blade is sharpened on one side and has a deep top grind to lighten weight and add stiletto style. This version of the Launch 12CA features a sub 2" blade, making it legal to carry in the state of California. Integrated fingerguards on handle top and bottom keep fingers away from danger.
This made in the USA automatic knife has stiletto styling in
a smaller package. The CPM-154 powdered metallurgy blade steel takes and holds
an excellent edge, provides corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and
toughness. The lightweight, strong anodized aluminum handle is comfortably slim
with a carbon fiber insert, while the low-profile push button makes it harder
for the blade to accidentally deploy.
Kershaw was founded in 1974 to design and manufacture tools
that knife users would be proud to own, carry, and use. This has meant that
every Kershaw knife must be of the highest quality. Whether it’s a hardworking
pocketknife, a hunting knife, or a special collectors’ edition, Kershaw always
chooses appropriate, high-quality materials and is dedicated to intensive
craftsmanship. Along with extremely tight tolerances and state-of-the-art
manufacturing techniques, this ensures that Kershaw knives provide a lifetime
of performance.
