Kershaw Blur Pocket Knife, Black, 3.4 Inch Recurve Blade

This is my fourth time buying this exact knife. I love it. It's my daily driver. If you're wondering why I have purchased four, it isn't because of issues with the knives themselves. I had to give one up because I forgot to take it out of my pocket going through security, one I broke the tip off of using it to pry something that I should have used a different tool for but was too lazy and in a rush to bother getting (learned that lesson the hard way) and one got lost somewhere. The last one I purchased before this one I had for quite a while. It's a great size and easy to carry clipped to your front pocket. The handle is textured so you can get a good grip on it even when your hands are wet, the spring assisted opening mechanism is solid (although it does seem to lose a little speed with age), it's not serrated so it's easy to sharpen, it's not reflective so it doesn't draw attention and freak people out when you pull it out to open a box or cut something and it has a reversible clip so you can tailor it to whatever is more comfortable for you (I find that reversing the clip from the factory position to the other end of the knife is better for me, but it's a personal preference). Great and useful knife. Pros * Very well made * Easy to carry *Adjustable reversible clip *Non-reflective matte surface *Textured non-slip handle *Easy to sharpen Cons *Spring assisted opening device loses a little speed with time (but that's normal).

Okay, listen up! I have bought thousands of items on Amazon, and owned 50 different knives in my life. This is the ABSOLUTE best pocket knife you can own! I have never written a review but just felt the need to on this one. I have had/lost 5 of these and I will never switch, even for a $500 handmade knife. This fits your hand perfectly, is easy to master, cuts everything and never leaves my pocket. It has supported me in my business for 7+ years. Buy this knife period!!!! (And don’t lose it. 😀 If one of your buddies pulls out some other pocket knife, just simply laugh at him and show him yours, lol.

This is my 3rd purchase of a Kershaw Blur. I initially purchased one for myself, and the other two I’ve given away as gifts over the last year. It’s one of the more affordable knives from an excellent company and more importantly they’re MADE IN THE USA. They come razor sharp, have strong locking mechanism, and the assisted opening makes it snap open and feel like a solid knife when locked in place with the liner lock securing the blade safely open. It has a deep carry pocket clip and best of all, like most quality knives is that it carries with the tip up. Both Blurs that I’ve given away the recipients have been ecstatic. 10/10 would recommend, again, and again, and again.

Lost this knife after having it for 5.5 years, so I had to get another one. I did purchase a Bel-Air to give that a try, mainly because of the steel, but there are several reasons why I like this knife better. - I like the rubberized grip, the Bel-Air does not have this - I got spoiled by the assisted opening function. I've had this on several other knives that I've owned before, and have a hard time wanting to go back. The Bel-Air does not have this function, but it is still relatively easy to open. - When I bought it in 2020, it was in the low 60s. For the cost, I thought it was a great deal. I still think it is in the 80s all things considered. It held up nicely during the time that I had it The knocks against the Bel-Air did not make me return it, nor does that make it a bad knife. I will keep the knife as a backup, and who knows, maybe I will switch for that one eventually. But for now, I enjoy the Blur, and hope that the one that I lost will be found eventually.

Observed some online reviews and video reviews of this blade and took the plunge. Love that it's American Made, Kershaw has a good reputation for general quality knife maker. This isn't a high end EDC knife, but I don't wince when I knick it, have to hammer with it, or use it in any hard use situation or fashion other than what it's made for. The lock-up was getting a little loose, hardly noticeable but there, sent it back to Kershaw (on my dime of course) with a note. I got it back a week later, they replaced all internals, put a wicked edge on it, and this things locks up tighter than any gerber or spyderco I've had, and they are great knife companies too! I can put up with shipping it to get super customer service like that, they earned a customer for life. I can put a VERY good edge on this with a basic knife sharpening kit in a few minutes. I like that this sharpens easily and well because I've had hit and miss luck with sharpening knives in the past. I had a spyderco centofante 3 before this, it took a good edge with just a diamond sharpening block, but I think this is better. I'm also VERY happy with the handle texture, again better to my preference than previous spyderco endura texture, really good valcano texturing. The clip is super tough and whereas my centofante 3 clip screw holes stripped out quickly, this thing remains rock solid. Deployment is different than the two previous spyderco models I listed. The spring assist really works best when you don't work as hard. I near cut my finger off when I tried to assist the blade open the entire path of the opening. It's designed for more of a short flick of the thumb to start the blade open, and the spring mechanism really whips it open from there. It's super slick, very fast, and I love it! The thumb stud sticks out for a really good perch for easy opening, the trade off is if you wear it with some close fitting shorts or pants without a shirt tucked between it, you can really notice it. I ran with this knife inside my running shorts one summer day, the thumb stud dug a small hole into my side, ouch. In regular carry with jeans in a 4-5 o'clock position, even without a shirt tucked in, it's alright, but it really shines in a pocket for me.

This is the only negative thing in my review: I had to bend the pocket clip out just a bit because it was quite difficult to clip it on to any fabric that wasn't taught and thin Now for the good bits It took me forever looking for my next knife. Im no knife expert and have never purchased a high-ish quality pocket knife, but this thing...this thing is amazing! Im super picky when it comes to looks, so when I found this one I instantly knew I had to have it. It is lighter than I expected, but not in a cheap-feeling way. The rubberized coating on the handle (which sort of feels like what they put on the running tracks around a football or soccer field) really helps keep it in your hand, but not grippy enough to make it difficult to put in your pocket Don't even get me started on the finish of the blade. Im a sucker for matte black because of its smoothness and how it reflects light, and this coating has me wanting to rub it every time I pop her out. Right out of the box, the blade was extremely sharp (the sharpest I've ever felt, but like I said, I have never seen a super high-quality blade) and slices through paper with ease. I had some suspension work to do on my car and started with my plain box knife which took some effort to cut through this plastic piece, but I but this baby on there and you would have thought the plastic turned to sour cream. I bought the Tanto version of the Blur, as I love the blade style for the scenarios I use it in, and the serrated section almost made my eyes pop out with how sharp it was. It sliced through a rubber/foam piece like it wasn't even there. If you're looking for a good, reliable, sharp pocket knife, then get this baby. Its extremely sexy, so you can enjoy cutting things even more! It's large enough to not feel shrimpy, but small/thin enough to easily slide on your pants or not bulge your pockets.

I purchased this very knife 4 years ago in March of 2021. This has been a very good knife. It's very sharpe and very easy to sharpen. The spring in the assisted folder is still top notch. It opens very smoothly and fast. The only issue is that the grippy inlays on the non belt clip side fell off. I wish I could get some more of those grip inlays. But all in all a very capable pocket knife.

Fantastic knife. Opens very easily. Came razor sharp. The grip on the handle is nice - doesn’t feel like it will slip at all.
