TUALATIN, OREGON—This smaller pocketknife from Kershaw and Jens Anso is rugged, gentlemanly, and dead sexy.
It features a slim, 3-inch blade of 8Cr13MoV in our BlackWash finish. A top swedge adds to its eye appeal. The Method opens quickly, easily, and manually with our KVT ball-bearing system and a built-in flipper.
The handle is black—of course. The G10 handle features an unusual machined pattern reminiscent of an architectural truss. It not only looks good, but also offers additional grip security. A custom backspacer features Jens’ large lanyard attachment for those of you who prefer a lanyard, and adds a touch of style even if you’re the lanyard-free type.
An inset liner lock keeps the weight down on the Method while still providing solid bladelockup security. A single-position pocketclip (right, tip-up) enables the knife to sit securely inside your pocket.
How do we accomplish all this style and value in a smaller knife? By using the Kershaw manufacturing “Method,” of course.
