Kershaw has a great business model, excellent products at reasonable prices supported by excellent customer service. I have never been disappointed with their products or service.

The Bel Air is everything an EDC needs to be and nothing it doesn't. Absolutely the best value knife I can think of, half the price of its competitors (thinking specifically of the Bugout family) while outperforming them. AND I got mine on sale. Super happy with it.

[moneyballbingo]

Glad to see the Bel Air getting some love, underrated EDC. I freaking love it.

Kershaw has a wonderful variety of high quality knives. Can’t believe I have never owned a blur. Every time I have it in my sights, something else comes along to get my knife dollars. I have the leek and a very old scallion so I do like Ken Onion designs. Thanks David.

I love the mini iridium. Would love to see a knife center exclusive. Everything the same but an upgrade on the steel. S35vn,
M390, s90, magnacut. I'd even take 14c28n or 154 if it's still a budget knife.

I think for your big hardworking knife, you could have also included the Launch 16 and the Launch 7 into the mix. The 16 seems even more hard use than the blur and comes with an M4 blade. The 7 offers that longer blade length requirement at 3.75" long.

[knifelore]

My answer would be yes, I love the bareknuckle, spada, and a few others, I only wish they would make XL versions of their knives, as I prefer blade lengths between 3½" to 4" on my folders!

[RWesleyEndres]

Big folder: Stomp
EDC: Leek
GC: Scallion
Fixed: ???
Honorable mention: Gadsden. Got to have a traditional in the mix.

Lol DCA, I think Ben Peterson was right about KnifeCenter needing to fire you. You are distracted by all your side projects with CJRB, Nordsmith, and MKM. Can't believe you called the Bel Air an Iridium!

JK love you DCA

Excellent video topic and good choice of brand for something a large portion of the public can afford. Throw in their Zero Tolerance line and you have even more choices. The Livewire and Bel Air are my current favorites of the brand.

[superpoint]

The Leek, BelAir, ZT0562 and the Camp 10 are all the knives I'd ever need from KAI. Honorable mention to the Iridium.

I love my Launch 6. I ground down the pointy end, got a deep carry clip, now it's my favorite automatic to edc. If you don't want to mod, look at the 15. Magnacut and nice size.

[cdemille]

I only collect Automatic Knives (so far) but I love almost every model they make.

[DampActionRC]

The Strada XL is where it's at, feels great to flip :D

[niclong]

The Kershaw Launch 11 is my favorite small edc

[johnruiz]

The Kershaw Leek and Blur are my two favorites for carry. I have a collection of Leeks, one in magnacut. Had a Blur so worn down so that it looked gray instead of black, but it was still functional. Replaced it with a new one in magnacut...🤣

[DRAWINGFLIES]

Like all the Kershaws I own. Latest purchase was the Iridium.

[Thecp]

I love my Strata. If Kershaw would just make 3.75 inch large versions of their crossbar lock and auto/ otf knives, that would be awesome.

[zdbrownie]

Not even a mention for the dividend in MC?? It's a go to of mine for an easy to carry, slim, lightweight carry. IMO its a much better edc option than the Link, I do have both.

[thperman_]

I want a Launch 7 and Launch 15, they are so clean. Been meaning to grab a Deschutes Skinner as well.
