From the Kershaw website: BlackWash gives a knife that already-broken-in look - like a favorite well-worn pair of jeans. The coating provides an extra measure of protection for the metal, and the BlackWash helps hide any additional scratches you may put on the knife during normal use.
The 3.5-in. blade is hollow-ground, providing excellent slicing ability. A flat-ground "spanto" tip offers strong piercing and even prying capabilities. A machined G-10 front scale and a heavily textured backspacer add to the Thermite's striking looks. On the practical side, the back handle is stainless steel with a frame lock and lockbar stabilizer for an always-secure lockup.
For easy opening, the Thermite is equipped with SpeedSafe, which can be accessed with the ambidextrous flipper or thumbstud. Kershaw's four-position deep-carry pocketclip offers complete carrying versatility.
