The Kershaw Piston features unique cuts on the handle and the blade. For easy opening, it features SpeedSafe® assisted opening and a convenient flipper.

The Piston offers our quad-carry options and even has a lanyard attachment. Don’t see a hole in the handle? Exactly. There’s a hidden lanyard loop in the interior of the handle so nothing interrupts the Piston’s cool good looks. Made in the USA.
