Description
 

1580 - Boa from Kershaw and Ken Onion, Black Aluminum Handle, Black Plain Edge Blade 

The big brother of the Kershaw Baby Boa knife is this Kershaw Ken Onion Plain Boa. This knife is big, without the problem of extra weight and its all black blade and handle make it a good choice for use on covert “hunting” trips.

It offers an ambidextrous Index Opening System so both righties and lefties will be able to flip open the knife one handed. You’ll enjoy the convenience offered by such a unique and practical system. In addition the handle of the Boa is drilled for both left and right carry, making for added convenience.

Two more excellent features make this one of the safest knives you can own. The Blade Lock is located on the spine of the Boa and will ensure that the blade of this knife doesn’t deploy when in your pocket. The Locking Liner will lock the Boa blade firmly into position when fully opened so you don’t have to worry. To release the blade and fold it back down all you need to do is press the spring loaded lock on the handle.

Blade Safety Lock
The Blade Lock located on the spine of the Boa provides added security to assure that the blade will not deploy while clipped into your pocket.

Changeable Clip
The Boa's handle is drilled for both left and right hand clip carry.

Locking Liner
Locks the blade into position after the blade is deployed. To release the locking liner simply press the spring loaded lock and the blade will easily fold back into the handle.

The Knife Features:

SpeedSafe®, the patented, assisted-opening system built into many of Kershaw's best-selling Ken Onion knives. SpeedSafe assists the user to smoothly open the knife with a manual push on the blade's thumb stud or Index- Open system. (Index-Open uses a protruding portion of the blade's finger guard to give the user an alternative to the thumb stud. The user manually pulls back on the protrusion with the index finger to open the blade.)

The heart of the SpeedSafe system is its torsion bar. Closed, the torsion bar helps keep the knife closed, preventing it from being opened by "gravity." In order to open the knife, the user must apply manual pressure to the thumb stud to overcome the resistance of the torsion bar. After the blade is out of the handle, the torsion bar moves along its halfmoon track and takes over. The blade opens smoothly and locks into position, ready for use.

Really fine Knife November 19, 2007
Reviewer: Robert Riley from Louis Creek, BC Canada  
This is a great knife, smoth operating and secure lock makes it a winner.  I have been using this knife for the last 5 years. The only problem I had was the screws that hold the clip on came out and got lost.

Thank you for your feedback on this review. We appreciate your input!
