Folding Knife Kershaw Camshaft 1370

The Camshaft 1370 model is a folder for everyday use, which belongs to a line of inexpensive knives with a modern design, made of 4Cr14 steel and equipped with the SpeedSafe system responsible for supporting the blade opening.

Proven steel

The 76 mm long blade is made of solid 4Cr14 steel hardened to a hardness of 55–57 HRC. This Chinese stainless steel has a high corrosion resistance and maintains sharpness for a relatively short time, which, however, perfectly compensates for the ease and speed of sharpening.

Such properties of steel mean that Kershaw Camshaft 1370 is intended for less demanding users and people who are just starting their adventure with outdoor and EDC.

Functional blade

The slim blade with a usable clip-point profile has a stonewashed matte finish (bathing in abrasive stones), which effectively masks minor scratches or abrasions of the blade caused during use.

Thanks to the use of a strong point, a concave cut and a cutting edge with a gentle curvature, the knife has good cutting and penetrating properties, and the blade does not get stuck in the material being cut.

The thickness of the blade at its widest point is 2.8 mm, which is a compromise between the durability and functionality of the knife in everyday work. Transverse cutters made on the back of the blade allow for a stable support of the fingers during work.

The design of the knife includes custom accents in the form of a pivot with an original design and a backspacer protruding from the handle with a rope hook.

Convenient operation

The blade is unfolded with one hand using a milled flipper, a convenient solution for both right and left-handed users. This convenient method of opening the blade makes the use of the knife extremely convenient and easy.

Mechanism supporting the unfolding of the blade

The opening process is facilitated by the SpeedSafe support mechanism. When you press down on the pinball fin or pry the pin, the support mechanism activates an internal spring that dynamically unfolds the blade, making the knife ready for use in a fraction of a second.

Robust lock

After unfolding the blade, it is securely locked with the liner-lock mechanism. The steel blockade strip ensures a high level of security, and its operation is very intuitive and convenient. A reliable lock is an important element that calls for the functionality and safety of a folding knife.

Carrying clip

Discreet carrying of the knife in the pocket is facilitated by an elastic clip that can be attached in 2 positions. The backspacer protruding from the handle has a hook for attaching a line or a paracord braid, which are very popular among many knife owners.

Ergonomic linings

The handle of the knife consists of cladding made of lightweight and durable glass-fiber reinforced nylon (FRN). The profiled shape of the handle and fine texturing make the knife very secure in the hand, and its use is very comfortable.
