There really is no other knife like this one—except, of course, for the original Speedform. This one shares the same blade and handle profile as the original, but then this made-in-the-USA knife goes its own way.
The blade steel is ELMAX, a third-generation powdered steel. Incredibly clean, ELMAX has virtually no nonmetallic inclusions and offers an extremely uniform distribution of carbides. A high chromium-vanadium-molybdenum alloyed steel, ELMAX combines high wear resistance with corrosion resistance. It polishes beautifully and can be hardened to 60+ on the Rockwell Hardness Scale. With ELMAX, the Speedform II’s blade is hard, resistant to wear and corrosion, and comes wicked sharp right of out the box.
The Speedform II’s handle is 3-D machined G-10 for a handsome look as well as extreme durability and resistance to environmental extremes. With its high-performance steel and machined handles, the knife is tough enough to take on a wide variety of every day tasks, yet slim, sleek, and striking enough to serve as a gentleman’s knife. It weighs just over three ounces, so it’s comfortable to carry, too. The pocketclip can be reversed for tip-up or tip-down carry, and the handle is drilled to accept a lanyard.
Technical Specifications
Manual
There is no mechanical assist, such as SpeedSafe, used to open the folding knife. It opens the classic, old-school way.Liner Lock
Locks the blade open during use; one side of the knife’s steel “liner,” the steel plate to which the handle scales are attached, moves into position behind the blade to securely lock it open.Reversible
Pre-drilled holes in the handle enable the user to change either the tip position or the side on which the knife carries.Made In The USA
When you see this on one of our knives, it means the knife was made in our Tualatin, Oregon manufacturing facility by skilled Kershaw knifemakers.
