Breaking: New Kershaw Knives for 2024 | KnifeCenter

[@KershawKnivesUSA]

Great conversation! Really excited about all of these Kershaws for our 50th anniversary. Thanks for having us KnifeCenter 👊

[@mcsquirgle]

I just want you guys to know I love all of these designs. The Launch 19 is my favorite because it kinda reminds me of a Para 3, while of course being it's own thing obviously. I've always wanted an automatic knife with a flat grind that fits the same role as the Para 3 and the launch 19 is that for me. The Launch 18 was my favorite until today, and I live that knife dearly. The Bel Air is also excellent. We needed a Sheepsfoot/ reverse tanto bugout or Deka style crossbar lock EDC folder. And with magnacut? Instant buy. The Wharf is excellently priced and my favorite of the budget releases. And when I get a Livewire it will be hard not to go for the CF version you just released

[@austindrake69]

I have always been a fan of Kershaw especially because it was the brand that first got me into knives. I hope to see more unassisted USA made knives from Kershaw this year. Especially seeing ZT hasn’t been releasing many new models.

[@landofpc]

how many years do you need to do iridium with better steel, (not as limited edition)????????

[@worldtree4038]

I have to agree w/ the comments above. Please bring back the premium iridium! And just for good measure make it in the USA. Thank you Kershaw team! Great work 👍

[@nvalley]

​@@BayouBandit6they've talked about this before: when COVID hit they had to make hard decisions about their US production so they focused on best sellers and easy to assemble knives. It's the same reason we saw ZT fall off. Sadly, it doesn't sound like any of the 86'd models are coming back. The good news is that we're still seeing so many new and classic USA made models

[@randypaine]

The Bel-Air looks hot. I'd love to see Kershaw fill in some more of the space in the market that's been left open by Benchmade going insane with their prices.

[@joeftan]

💯 agree. I’ve never thought my Benchmade knives were a notable step up from Kershaw’s US made knives, and now there is a huge opportunity for Kershaw to really step up their US made lineup of manual knives. It could be Kershaw vs Spyderco in the near future. I don’t think Kersaw would eat into ZT either.

[@AmbuBadger]

I already ordered one from the Knife Center site, they were the cheapest online orice Ive found at $150 (just gotta wait for them to come in stock). It'll be my first MagnaCut blade and the first US-made Kershaw since their Skyline.

[@cavemandanwilder5597]

Looking forward to multiple Kershaws for the first time in years. Love the direction the company is headed lately.

[@The4cp]

They need to up-size a bit. Not one knife 3.5 and over.

[@mcsquirgle]

Kershaw is absolutely KILLING it! All of these are winners! The launch 19 is perfect though.

[@fromthesticks2027]

Really nice line up Kershaw. I'm a bit surprised at the many pleasing aesthetics as most line ups carry about one or two for me but this hit six or seven and that's phenomenal. Keep going.

[@random_eskimo_in_the_rockies]

Please make the Iridiums available with 14C28N and you’d really have a winner! D2 is a little too fragile for an EDC knife.

[@ddrod8128]

Kershaw, please bring back the bare knuckle! Amazing knife, imagine making that with a cross bar lock... pure magic!

[@sloanNYC]

Kershaw goes from $30 to $300 and makes great stuff across the whole spectrum. Cool new releases. Reverse Tanto team too. LOL

[@BrandonGavin_EDC]

Finally a USA manual Kershaw, the new launches are all great. I’m so excited that Kershaw is killing it again.

[@leniwiecdwupalczasty]

David, I appreciate how calm you were every time he called the blade "revesed tanto". ;)

[@jlogue751]

Wow. Every single one looks awesome, great designs! Exciting times for Kershaw.

[@WallachGaming]

Love seeing Kershaw step it up.

[@MikeCzenkmd]

I gave up on Kershaw until the Iridium last year. Keep it up.

[@KershawKnivesUSA]

Happy to have you back! 2024 is going to be another big year.

[@cylentone]

Same! The new one is also 🤩 That Scour reminds me of the Ruike P801 which is a great everyday beater.

[@MikeCzenkmd]

@@KershawKnivesUSA My original iridium is about to give up the ghost so perfect timing. I've used it every single day at work and it's starting to wear lol I use it hard

[@cwalker228]

Same here!!! Now I wish the reverse Tanto could magically switch places with my OG 😂

[@chrischips1732]

Way to make a frigid Canadian Monday morning that much better! Thanks DCA and Andrew! Cheers gents 🤘

[@KershawKnivesUSA]

Stay warm!

[@ForRealConfused]

Way to make a probably warm in comparison Illinois morning better!

[@chrischips1732]

-43C here this morning 👌 thanks for some hot blades to go perk up the morning! Loving the launch 19, boo Canada 🤣

[@charlesdudek7713]

I really like that Bel-Air. Might be my next knife.

[@govic55]

The Layup reminds me of the Piston. I regret not getting a second Piston.

[@DylanLey]

The Bel-Air is going to be one of the best value MiUSA knives of 2024!

[@kevinlokstet8567]

For the layup. If you do come to endorse and offer it de-asissted for shipping to Canada that way with the parts in the box. You would make a hell of a lot of people up here happy. That would make so many more models available for us to purchase and be able to test and fall in love with. Do it. Please

[@SMAVDOGG]

I'm loving the sanctum, but sadly it's in 8cr. Kershaw if you see this please come out with a version in D2.

[@danielcox5849]

Some really nice knives from Kershaw. I only have a few Kershaws in my collection but several of these get me attention.

[@TheNeybor]

My first knife was a Kershaw. I’ve always loved the brand and they’ve always had a special place in my heart. I moved to other “more interesting” brands eventually. Can’t wait to get Kershaw back in the rotation.

[@user-lf1bj7di8i]

I REALLY LIKED WHAT I SAW,ALOT.i have a few vintage Kershaws and there is no comparison. I will save my dollars,a lot of them and get me 1 or 2.Just can't wait.

[@DampActionRC]

Would love to see the bel air in cerakote black, but wonder what that off white bel air looks like once worn in.

[@King88_8]

Hollow grinds! HOLLOW GRINDS FTW

[@RobBernhard]

Great lineup. I was really hoping for an update to the Heist which, for me, was the best of the 4 DuraLock knives from last year. Can't argue with the numbers though, everyone loves the Iridium!

[@raiderfan367]

I got my Bel-Air today. Fit finish and sharpness were excellent. It feels smooth as a Cadillac in a nice small package. Thanks!

[@cintage]

Wow! Kershaw seems to be an a pretty good way. Bel-Air and Iridium. Wow! And although I’m not into autos, that Launch looks nice.

[@allemander]

Seems to be an a? pretty good way? What?

[@ogenmatic]

Nice! Under specifications for the Bel-Air, it says: Locking Mechanism: Frame Lock (Needs editing I think…) Looks like a winner! More US made products please, Kershaw!

[@thumperstick]

Kershaw doing deep carry clips the right way! Well done I'll be adding to the collection!

[@Aaron-pf7eh]

Can’t wait to pick up that bel-air and the reverse iridium! My normal iridium has been the perfect edc

[@Salamando3D]

That Bel Air is the Fresh Prince of knives! Holy cow, Kershaw coming out swinging to start 2024! Going to be a great year for them 😎👍

[@Shiroiokami947]

The Bel Air is a great knife ,but I had problems with it opening in my shirt pocket. I had to tighten the pivot a bit to increase its detent.

[@ejesoriginal]

I'm really liking my Launch 15 in Magnacut. Been carrying it for many months now and it has been fantastic. I have several Magnacut knives and my Kershaw seems to have the heat treat in the sweet spot atad bit better than the others I have.

[@No1ANTAGON1ST]

I feel like he was dying inside everytime the kershaw guy said reverse tanto 😂

[@LonnieHutchinson90]

I think I just fell back in love with Kershaw!

[@DeadOnArrival45]

I want them all! Kershaw may be my favorite knife brand. Love the new models!

[@fredthebarber]

Count how many times DCA’s nostril flare every time the Kershaw guy says “reverse tanto”, it’s a fun game! I look forward to more colour variations for the Bel-Air, with a non-blacked out blade. That seems like a great competitor for the Hogue Deka.

[@skylazart]

Perfect bel air. Looks the iridium but better

[@eilambyle]

the static with micarta is such a great knife !!!

[@drkpg1]

I love the Bel Air !!! The specs are great, Magnacut...

[@joeftan]

The reverse tanto (or modified wharnie or modified sheepsfoot) blade shape is by far my favorite. This is such an exciting lineup, the Bel-Air being the major standout! At least a 3.5” bladed Bel-Air and an 85% Livewire in the future would be amazing.

[@ericksaucedo347]

I am a first time Kershaw owner and I love my knife! Appreciate the video thank you 🙏

[@gregoryburns4034]

Have loved Kershaw knives for 45 years. Started with the "I think the Trooper fixed blade" and then the original forged fixed blade.

[@Adam.297]

I am very interested in the Bel-air. High quality at a reasonable price. Will there be more color options in the future? I feel like the sky is the limit when using Cerakote. I would immediately pick up a red variation.

[@RamZar50]

Bel Air with MagnaCut for $150 will outsell Benchmade 945 with S30V at $207. Both have aluminum scales and crossbar locks. Bel Air has a 76mm blade length which is 2.99” so just under 3 inches.

[@shootsandladderbars3055]

Big fan of the reverse tanto. Very utilitarian shape and easy to sharpen. The cleaver shape is also a favorite.

[@TheHOOfan1]

I figured that Knife Center must be in Oregon since they had a Kershaw employee on, look them up and they are just up the road from me in Virginia.

[@Bit2brain]

Also in Virginia. Was really glad to see they are out of VA.

[@johnmorgan4405]

I have been waiting for another American made knife company to start making knives I like aside from Benchmade. You have my attention for the first time in a long time Kershaw.

[@rwe1]

Ever heard of Buck?

[@Tzodie]

That Launch 19 is the one for me I think. Sexiest auto I've seen in the launch series so far, and that's saying something.

[@jacobpeterson2438]

I really like the look of the launch 19!

[@nicholaspuglia8519]

I love Kershaw! I want them all.

[@jsutty7530]

kershaw bringing the 🔥…welcome back boys…can we get a duralock leek?😅

[@psychocuda]

The Bel-Air has me giving it a long look. Might be a present to myself sometime this year.

[@pjcrabtree4456]

The Bel Air is what I want Kershaw to use as their new standard for non-auto folders.

[@adbramsay]

Will ABSOLUTELY be getting a Bel-Air!!!

[@AYellowPepper]

The Lay-Up is a real kreshaw Original! Its only missing a recurve to be the Essence of Kershaw!

[@user-wy1dl2me2p]

Launch 19 work of art.

[@larrylarry739]

All nice knives. I have my eye on the Bel Air and the Launch 19 in particular.

[@mercutio99x22]

Great designs from Kershaw in 2023 and 2024 (so far). Definitely like the designs of the new launch as well as the Bel Air, but for me I don't dig the colors. Hope there are options coming later down the road, like maybe an OD green for the launch, and I think some bold/bright colors would be good on the Bel Air...

[@mikereese15]

Not normally a kershaw fan but there are some good models coming out.

[@whiteyfisk9769]

Why all the hate for Kershaw? Im honestly curious. The only Kershaw ive had i found the ground, i like it alot. I ordered a Layup yesterday for EDC, so we'll see. But seems like most knife guys wont even consider Kershaw

[@sayeager5559]

Not a bad looking knife on the table.

[@worldtree4038]

Kershaw is where my knife hobby began 30 years ago. Would love to see them offset Benchmade & Spyderco to seize the top spot in our USA made market 😲 Bravo!

[@mountainhobo]

Is the blackwash necessary for Magnacut? Every knife I have seen with Magnacut has blackwashed blade. I strongly dislike black blades, hence I hope they will be more traditional options for a knife like Bel Air (that knife looks very appealing).

[@zbass2135]

Would like to see the Layup & Warf upgraded handles & Magnacut. 👍🏻. Those would be 🔥

[@galhillel100]

Great knife , great company. Ordered the bel air 🎉

[@galhillel100]

😂 and the Sanctum

[@rwe1]

Layup is about it. Wharf isn't bad.

[@thehim2990]

kershaw is killin it once again

[@Cory816]

I've been watching these videos for years and finally bought something from KnifeCenter. Looking forward to the Bel Air!

[@ejh66]

Kershaw has come a long way! Very nice Auto's.

[@ryanh6081]

From someone who did national helitack and the helirappel firefighting, appreciate the name. Like the lines of it

[@srsatlaf4730]

As I am enjoying watching this new video on Kershaw Knives, I am emptying my pockets after a day of work and my attention is drawn to my most carried EDC knife, my Kershaw Knockout.

[@soupistasty5]

Bel-Air is my fav for sure, I'll be looking for that one right away. When are we gonna see some upgraded materials on some of these new models? Magnacut is the obvious choice these days, but even a more 'run of the mill' super steel from years gone by like S30V would add a lot of appeal without jacking up the price too much. I'm thinking the Layup or the Scour could use the blade steel upgrade treatment, imho. Great video all around!

[@ItsEverythingElse]

Like the Bel-Air. Want more colors though. Bugout still wins on weight.

[@bradassenzio7372]

I smell a beat the icon when the bel-air comes out. Bug out, Dekka, Bel-Air. With the bel-air having a real shot at the win.

[@W4RM4T]

Man, I think I'll klingon to the Wharfe

[@MikeCzenkmd]

Oh my im scooping up that iridium

[@KershawKnivesUSA]

Enjoy your new Iridium!

[@brianmatthews3450]

Am I the only one who would love to see dca and kc (from smkw) sit down and talk knives? Just sit and talk about there favorite knives. It would be epic. I know it won't happen but to see the 2 of them together would be awesome

[@malachilovato9226]

Way better than watching bladehq!!!!

[@Huey4214]

Bel-Air, love the name and the knife . Instant classic!

[@cybercanal5319]

Honestly a USA made Iridium in Magnacut would have been the way to go. Bel Air looks good, but the Iridium is a timeless design.

[@davidtate166]

I enjoy Kershaw knives .they are winning knive brand. 🏆😁Going places.

[@crunkycrunker]

Love to see more 🇺🇸 gear

[@chasing3suns]

Damn I'm probably going to pick up one or two of those knives throughout the year Good job Kershaw Great showing!

[@QenaitheCustodianGuard]

He could be anything from 25 years old to 45 years old, nice lad however. The value on the Kershaw knives is superb, assisted knives at that price is wicked. The Launch 19 looks unbelievable! Scour is also super nice, upgrade the steel on that and it's a purchase for sure.

[@49shadesofj]

Bel Air looks fantastic. I've got a covalent. It's a good knife and that helitact looks cool as well. But I don't like that clip at all. Pants wrap around the butt end of the knife and its hard to get out sometimes.

[@slackerhobo]

I am super excited for the Bel-air I have been shopping for something that was simmilar to my Kershaw Natrix that was manacut and wanted a non frame/liner lock. This checks ALL the boxes for me I am ordering ASAP

[@slackerhobo]

I lied I did not even finish the video and just went and bought one

[@rickyricardo3551]

Im suprised at the msrp off the launch , I find most autos to feel less premium and between that and the steel I thinks its just ehhhh ok with better options out for value being out there . With that, I'll say that the bel air looks darn nice though. I wonder how thick will the blade will be .

[@boyscout399]

Kershaw is swinging for the fences here. Really want that magnacut double edge livewire.

[@jerrypomroy2375]

I have to say that it’s nice to see Kershaw elevating their lineup quality as far as materials & engineering. Kind of feel like the Civivi’s of the world set a new standard that other manufacturers needed to raise their game to remain competitive. That Bel Air is a prime example & may be my next knife purchase, which would be fitting for me as I live in Bel Air, MD. Though I do wish they would have done away with the branding on the pocket clip.

[@franzgeil422]

Great line up. Looks like all home runs. I still have my Leek from the first year they were released.

[@JimmyDragon]

Super hyped for a new Static! I loved that framelock but hated the cheaper steel. I pulled the D2 blade off the g10 handle version and swapped it with the MOV blade and it was magic. Would love to see it with a super steel. TBH I don't love the scales on this new static/warf but still excited to see this back.

[@stuartrollings602]

Howdy folks! Great new knives! Some reming me of the Eris model! Go USA made!

[@MarilynBrown-dd6yg]

WoW just wow looks like my Kershaw collection will be growing quite a lot this year. Got the 16 , the iridium , magma cut blur, and want to get a a launch 1 still but dang I want all of these. The launch idk love the blade but handle just not my style hopefully different colors might do it for me

[@tomfoolery2082]

Like to see the iridium with an assisted blade .

[@craigm2484]

I love seeing Kershaw doing so well . I got a Benchmade Auto Immunity and was beyond disappointed with it hands down the most dull knife I ever owned t6 hardware and 2 dome head screws holding the pocket clip in place . I am either going to give it to my 9 year old daughter as It is much like a trainer it is that dull or contact Benchmade

[@serdj_50618-P]

Great collection. Thanks for sharing. Especially I like Bel-Air and would love to have one. There are also two other knives which I found very interestin: Iridium and Launch 19. Would be great to see manual version of Launch sice the automated vesion is banned in some countries.

[@racamon]

Watching this episode at work (shhhh) and in my pocket is little Kershaw Shuffle 2. That made me wonder, is there new Shuffle models on the horizon? I feel like it needs some new tech update on that little, but capable knife.

[@JerryLoffelbein]

The Bel-Air looks pretty good. Having the Bugout and Deka though, I know the handle isn't going to be long enough for my big hands and the clip protruding off the end won't do it any favors. If we get something similar in the 3.3" - 3.6" range in the future I'll be all over it. In the meantime, y'all with normal proportions enjoy it, looks like a good blade. Also amused by so many mentions of "Reverse Tanto" blades 🤣

[@jeremytodd7450]

I'm good with my Knockout. I got big hands and it's super thin.

[@warshaws]

Launch 19 seems exceptional. that could be the next and only pocket knife for me in 2024. The Helitack needs to be D2.
