Kershaw 1160TAN Tan Fraxion Linerlock Knife

The Kershaw Fraxion in Tan is one of the slimmest EDC folders in the lineup, a compact 2.75-inch BlackWash-finished 8Cr13MoV drop point blade paired with a tan G10 handle for a knife built to disappear into a pocket.

The BlackWash finish hides fingerprints and daily wear noticeably better than a bright polish, and G10, a heat-cured fiberglass laminate, resists cracking and fading far better than basic plastic scales over years of carry. At just 4 inches closed, the Fraxion is one of the smallest full-featured folders Kershaw makes, small enough to forget about until it's actually needed. The thumb stud opening point delivers fast, reliable one-handed deployment, and a liner lock secures the blade with dependable, thin-profile lockup that keeps the whole knife slim. For anyone used to a bulkier folder, the Fraxion shows how much cutting capability fits into a small footprint.

Kershaw backs the Fraxion with the same limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship that covers the full lineup, confidence in a knife built for buyers who want capability without any noticeable pocket presence.
