When facing off with nature in a critical situation, don’t let your knife’s response time and weight slow you down. Critical situations demand the Ken Onion Blur from Kershaw knives.

Our latest Badass Knife of the Week isn’t called the Blur for nothing. This pocket knife uses Kershaw’s patented SpeedSafe assisted-opening mechanism, which allows for quick and easy engagement with one hand.

But what really sets this iteration of the hugely popular Blur apart from the others is the premium S30V powdered stainless steel used for the blade.

The S30V Blur is capable of taking a razor-sharp edge and holding it for a longer period of time while exhibiting toughness, wear resistance, and hardness.

With every use of the knife, the S30V steel will desmonstrate why it’s a premium steel.

This knife is also inlaid with a lightweight aluminum handle featuring Kershaw’s patented Trac-Tec handle technology for a non-slip grip in wet and slippery conditions.

Coupled with Kershaw’s SpeedSafe torsion-bar opening assist, this knife is made to be ready exactly where and when you need it.
