Kershaw Mini Iridium Reverse Tanto Gray Knife

The Kershaw Mini Iridium Reverse Tanto in Gray brings the Iridium platform into a more compact format, a 3-inch D2 tool steel reverse tanto blade finished in a two-tone stonewash and satin combination, fitted to a gray anodized aluminum handle.

D2 tool steel is a step up from standard stainless alloys, holding a working edge noticeably longer through repeated cutting thanks to its high carbon content, an advantage in a compact knife meant for daily use. The reverse tanto blade shape blends a strong, reinforced point with a smooth, controlled belly, offering piercing capability without a standard tanto's more aggressive profile. At about 6.9 inches overall, the Mini Iridium carries with discreet everyday presence compared to its larger sibling. Kershaw's DuraLock crossbar lock secures the blade with a solid, positive click and releases with a simple pull on the bar. It's a smart pick for anyone who likes the standard Iridium's blade geometry but wants a more pocketable size.

Kershaw backs the Mini Iridium with the same limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship that covers the full lineup, confidence in a compact knife shaped around edge-holding steel and a distinctive blade shape. Explore more Crossbar Lock Knives.
