Few knives garner as much excitement as out-the-front automatics. After significant research, careful development, and rigorous testing, in-house designers and custom knifemaker Matt Diskin deliver Kershaw’s first OTF auto: the Livewire. The premium CPM MagnaCut blade features superior edge retention and opens and retracts with authority. The black-anodized aluminum handle is textured for a secure grip. And its curved, staircase-like button feels comfortable on the thumb for reliable deployment. When closed, this knife is a joy to carry thanks to its reversible deep-carry clip and light weight. Fans have been asking for it, and the Livewire is every bit worth the wait.
