A knife that tries to do more than cut things often ends up being a master of none. However, the latest Badass Knife of the Week proves a knife can serve multiple functions without sacrificing its core purpose.
The Kershaw Shuffle is a compact, versatile, and inexpensive folding knife with a few bonus tools that integrate seamlessly into the overall design.
The 2.4-inch blade is the highlight of the knife. Featuring 8Cr13MoV steel with a bead-blasted finish, the blade opens up manually with dual thumb studs and stays engaged with a liner lock.
A swedge on top of the blade helps increase its penetrating and slicing capabilities while the finger choil gives this small knife a more secure grip in hand.
Speaking of a more secure grip, the Shuffle was one of the first knives to feature the K-Texture handle, which is made of glass-filled nylon with a repeating pattern of the Kershaw “k” logo.
Kershaw could have called it a day at that point but decided to put in a bottle opener with a protruding portion of the backspacer. There’s also a flathead screwdriver that doubles as a lanyard attachment. A deep carry pocket clip also makes carrying this knife no issue.
It’s hard to beat this little folder in value and functionality. It’s no surprise the Shuffle has been a perennial favorite among Kershaw’s knives since it was introduced in 2013.
It also comes in various colors and blade shapes, including Lime Green.
