Kershaw Leek 1660USA Overview

The Kershaw Leek 1660USA Pocketknife is a proud tribute to American craftsmanship, featuring a vibrant USA Flag graphic permanently bonded to its aluminum handle. Moreover, the 3-inch blade is precision-forged from Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel, delivering the high-performance edge retention and corrosion resistance expected from a premium USA-made tool. Furthermore, the blade features a smooth bead-blasted finish, providing a non-reflective, matte surface that allows the stars and stripes on the handle to take center stage.

Mechanism and Reliability

The patented SpeedSafe® assisted opening system ensures rapid, one-handed deployment via the ambidextrous flipper or thumb stud. In addition to its fast action, this model utilizes a secure Liner Lock and a secondary Tip-Lock slider to keep the blade safely positioned during use or transport. Because of the aluminum construction and coating, the 1660USA weighs in at 2.6 ounces, offering a substantial yet lightweight feel that is perfect for daily carry. If you love the Leek platform but prefer a cleaner, more minimalist look without the graphic, we highly recommend checking out the original Kershaw Leek 1660 as the classic stainless steel standard.

Handle Design and Ergonomics

Furthermore, the modified drop point blade features a razor-sharp tip that is ideal for detailed work, while the straight edge handles slicing tasks with ease. Additionally, the handle scales are precision-machined from 6061-T6 aluminum, providing a durable and lightweight chassis that is contoured for a comfortable grip. Consequently, the reversible pocketclip supports versatile tip-up or tip-down carry, allowing you to display your patriotism exactly how you prefer.
