The all-black Kershaw Lateral is the perfect work knife, designed to handle tough cutting tasks. With Kershaw's assisted opening, the wide drop point blade with a slight recurve and partially serrated edge can easily cut through a wide range of materials, including tougher ones like rope. The blade is made of tough 8Cr13MoV steel that takes a sharp edge and can be easily re-sharpened as needed, and it also has a black-oxide coating that enhances its performance. The swooping handle texture offers a comfortable and ergonomic grip, while the reversible extra-deep-carry pocket clip allows for discreet and convenient carry. The Lateral is also affordable, making it an ideal addition to any tool kit.
