14 different Kershaw knives for sale, along with a bunch of non-Kershaw knives.
Prices are decent.
I believe shipping is a flat $5.
Is this one a good knife?

I like the tanto-style blade plus the spring-assist, and the price is affordable. I am not sure of the quality of the steel. Guess you can’t expect too much for $16.
The Kershaw 1990 Brawler is very nice...
except for the clip, which is a little too short and too tight.
The quality of the steel (8Cr13MoV) is very nice for the price.
I wonder if they still wont ship to NY? 
EDIT: …… nope :_(
I bet you're jealous! :p
lol, yes yes I am!
Not really though, the only thing I wanted was a skyline. 
Good price for Cold Steel XL Recon, but orders only for 48 US states… :_(
So, no international shipping? :~
Skyline price is uber low for Sandvik steel blade. Too bad they didn’t list the Cryo II as that is next on my want list.
The Columbia River Knife and Tool Ken Onion Ripple 2 is a steal.
The Japanese Acuto 440 blade steel is in the same class as ATS34 or 154CM steel with hardness of 58-60 Rockwell.
I found a Kershaw Clash Black, in the middle of Main Street, Downtown Royal Oak, that looked like it been run over quite a few times? Pretty tough little blade! Locks up tight, spring assisted, it hits with authority, quite loud, no hiding this, it’s open, no wiggle at all, hefty clip, sharpens up nice, hell of a good find I think!!! 
Accuto 440 is half way between 440C and 154CM. Technically it could be considered 440C with .2% vanadium to control grain growth, and 1.4% molybdenum to add additional carbides that are tougher and smaller than the chromium carbides that are a majority of what forms (it is after all 17.5% chromium). The smaller molybdenum carbides help fill in with the chromium carbides to produce a less fracture prone microstructure. 154CM has .4% vanadium, and 4% molybdenum with 3-4% less chromium, so the effects are even more pronounced.
440C, Accuto 440, and 154CM will all make great knives, but any one could come out on top in head to head testing depending on type of test and quality of their respective heat treatments. Well heat treated 440C can outperform poorly treated 154CM.
I have been a long time fan of the Kershaw Leeks. I bought my second one (first was 8 years ago) a month or two ago from woot. A blackwashed version for a really good price. It’s a beautifully designed knife for the money, and one I recommend to anyone that isn’t an urban commando.
(urban commando = the type of person that thinks they need a giant folder or fixed blade capable of reducing a tree to sawdust for their EDC needs like opening mail and cutting boxes)
I've been waiting patiently for the Kershaw Leek to hit $30 or less for a long time. The BlackWash one looks nice, but shipping and tax kills the deal if purchasing just a single knife. Kicking myself for not pulling the trigger when they were on sale for about $40 for two.
Where is it made? China? I’m just a little prejudicial when it comes to Chinese steel after they flooded the market in the 1990s with cheap Norinco products that were made with soft steel. They quality of those products were awful and were in my opinion, very unsafe.
It’s getting super hard to find a knife that is made in the USA, Germany or northern Europe. The last foreign made pocket knife I bought was a small Cold Steel pocket knife that was half serrated. It was made in Japan. That was over 20 years ago so I’m guessing they are made in China now.
Now if there were a BLF member that made knives. Maybe that member could create a custom BLF pocket knife with a nice high carbon steel. :quest: 
Although most knives made in China are horrible, there are exceptions to the rule.
For example, most BLF members like SanRenMu and Enlan because they are high-quality and inexpensive Chinese knives.
Personally, I prefer Chinese-made Kershaw assisted-openers.
The Kershaw Clash is made in China, is very nice, and is one of my favorites.
To be fair, not all made-in-China knives are crap. The Spyderco Tenacious, for example, is built like a tank. Many Cold Steel knives are made in China, but some of their blades are very nice.
I do agree that, in general, "Made in USA" usually indicates a certain minimum level of quality for knives.
I really liked that Cold Steel knife I had. It had around a 2 1/2 inch blade so it was Michigan legal to carry. Too bad that it grew legs. :_(
It’s sad that I can carry a concealed pistol but I can’t carry a switchblade or pocket knife with a blade longer than 3 inches. I could if I was a cop. Equal protection clause my foot.
I like that Skyline and searching showed it’s a good price. I found some of the others on ebay at lower prices, with free shipping, but I didn’t buy any of course. I really don’t like the short clips on any of them. I would need a clip that had a 2" belt capture area, to fit my belt. These new uniforms use a 1-7/8" wide belt, ridiculous.
