Kershaw has been a go-to name in pocket knives for decades, known for practical designs that feel right in the hand and perform when you actually need them. Based in Tualatin, Oregon under Kai USA, Kershaw builds a lineup that ranges from affordable everyday carry to premium USA-made blades that stand up to real use.
If you have carried a Leek, Blur, or Scallion, you already know the Kershaw approach: smooth action, thoughtful ergonomics, and features that make a knife easy to live with. Their assisted-opening and manual folders cover everything from light EDC tasks to tougher work, and their fixed blades and automatics fill the gaps when you want more reach, more strength, or faster deployment.
At Lotz Outdoors we stock Kershaw because they deliver honest performance for the money. Whether you need a first pocket knife, a dependable backup for the pack, or a hard-use blade for camp, you can pick a Kershaw with confidence and put it to work.
