Kershaw Blur Folding Knife

The folding knife that outperforms fixed blades — assisted opening SpeedSafe technology for instant one-handed deployment.

  • SpeedSafe assisted opening deploys the blade one-handed in under a second
  • Hawkbill blade geometry excels at cutting tasks that challenge standard blade shapes
  • Trac-Tec textured handle provides secure grip in wet and cold field conditions
  • Liner lock mechanism provides solid blade lockup under hard use conditions

Kershaw is one of the most respected American knife manufacturers with decades of professional use validation

SpeedSafe assisted opening is the most popular one-handed opening system in the folding knife category

Used by law enforcement military personnel and serious everyday carry enthusiasts as a primary carry knife

Why This Matters

A folding knife that requires two hands to open is significantly less useful than one that deploys instantly one-handed when your other hand is occupied — which it always is during actual emergency tasks. The Kershaw Blur's SpeedSafe technology delivers instant one-handed blade deployment that transforms the knife's practical utility in field scenarios.

Product Description

The Kershaw Blur features a 3.4-inch 14C28N stainless steel blade with a tanto or drop-point profile, SpeedSafe assisted opening for one-handed deployment, and a textured aluminum handle for secure grip. The Trac-Tec insert prevents slipping in wet and cold conditions. A reversible deep-carry pocket clip provides tip-up or tip-down carry. Fully assembled and tested in Tualatin, Oregon. The Blur represents the sweet spot of performance, durability, and everyday carry practicality at an accessible price point.

Real Use Case

During emergency shelter construction you are holding a tarp corner with one hand and need to cut a length of cordage immediately. Your Kershaw Blur deploys one-handed in under a second with a flick of your thumb. The cut is made the tarp is secured and you continue working without interruption. A two-hand knife would have required you to set down the tarp losing your position in the setup process.
