The Kershaw Store

The Avalanche from Kershaw and Ken Onion is a handy knife to keep around, especially if you want to impress with something bold looking. This is a utility knife so you can apply it to any number of slicing, cutting or piercing tasks while also being surprisingly lightweight for its durability and size. It’s only 3.5 ounces, while coming in at about 7 inches when fully opened.

It’s changeable clip is a great feature too. The Avalanche handle is drilled for tip-up or tip down carrying so you can have the knife in a position that’s easy for you to get at quickly.

A Locking Liner will keep the knife blade securely in place after it’s fully deployed. All you need to do to release the blade is simply press down on the spring loaded lock to release. In addition the SpeedSafe assisted opening system built into the Avalanche will help you open the knife with ease and safely. Simply press the thumb stud on the blade to slide it open.
