The First Thing You Notice About The Piston Is Its Cut Good Looks. Both Blade And Handle Are Dramatically Sculpted For A Look You Won't See In Just Anybody's Pocket.
And Speaking Of Pockets, While The Piston Is A Larger Knife, It Won't Put Too Much Weight In Your Pocket. The Key Is The Piston's Lightweight G-10 Handle And Inset Liner Lock. G-10, An Epoxy-filled Woven Glass Fiber Material, Is Extremely Tough And Stable All By Itself. So There's No Need To Fully Line The Handle With Steel Plate To Create A Durable Handle. That Lightens The Weight, As Well As The Thickness Of The Knife, Considerably.
Then, To Ensure A Secure Lock Up, Kershaw Uses Our Inset Liner Lock. We Inset A Smaller Steel Plate, Which Functions Like A Locking Liner, In One Side Of The Handle. When The Knife Is Opened, The Steel Plate Moves Behind The Blade Securely Locking Is Open.
The Piston's Blade Is Sandvik 14c28n, A High-performance Stainless Steel That's Tough, Corrosion Resistant, And Hardened To 58-60 On The Rockwell Hardness Scale. The Piston Offers Our Quad-carry Options And Even Has A Lanyard Attachment. Don't See A Hole In The Handle? Exactly. There's A Hidden Lanyard Attachment In The Interior Of The Handle So Nothing Interrupts The Piston's Chiseled Look.
