The blade steel offers good ability to hold an edge, strength, and hardness. The K-Texture handle is exclusive to Kershaw. Look closely and you’ll see that the texture is composed of a repeating pattern of the Kershaw logo k. Sure, it looks cool, but the point is giving your fingers a little something extra to hang onto, which the Kershaw K-Texture on the Shuffle’s handle does to perfection.?A liner lock secures the Shuffle’s blade open while you use it, but also lets you close the knife easily when its tasks are done.
