Kershaw Gravel Assisted Frame Lock Assisted Opening Knife

The Kershaw Gravel is a compact framelock holds a 2.5-inch BlackWash-finished 8Cr13MoV drop point blade, closing down to just 3.5 inches for a knife that carries with essentially no noticeable footprint in a pocket.

That BlackWash finish covers both the blade and the matching stainless handle, hiding scuffs and fingerprints noticeably better than a bright polish while giving the whole knife a clean, cohesive monotone look. The drop point blade shape is the profile that handles the widest range of everyday cutting, handling everything from opening mail to trimming loose thread with control. A frame lock holds the blade rigid and play-free through use, machined directly from the handle's own stainless stock rather than a thinner separate liner, and the extended tang delivers a fast, dependable opening point that works well one-handed. A lanyard hole rounds out the practical details for anyone who carries with a cord or fob attached, and the Gravel's small overall footprint makes it an easy knife to keep as a backup in a bag, console, or desk drawer without it taking up meaningful space.

Kershaw backs the Gravel with the same limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship that covers the full lineup, confidence in a minimal-footprint knife built for daily carry. Explore more Assisted Opening Knives.
