Kershaw Blur 1670BW Overview

The Kershaw Blur 1670BW combines the legendary performance of the Ken Onion Blur with a rugged, pre-weathered aesthetic. Moreover, the 3.4-inch recurve blade is precision-forged from Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel, delivering the exceptional edge retention and corrosion resistance that serious users demand. Furthermore, the blade features a distinct BlackWash™ finish, a black-oxide coating that is tumble-polished to create a vintage, “broken-in” look that helps hide additional scratches and scuffs from daily use.

Mechanism and Reliability

The patented SpeedSafe® assisted opening system allows for lightning-fast, one-handed deployment using the large, angled ambidextrous thumb studs. In addition to its rapid action, the Blur utilizes a secure Inset Liner Lock—a stainless steel strip riveted inside the handle—to keep the blade safely locked without increasing the overall handle thickness. Because of this smart design and the lightweight aluminum chassis, the Blur weighs in at just 3.9 ounces, making it a substantial yet comfortable carry for heavy-duty users. If you prefer this rugged finish but need a more specialized blade shape for rescue or tactical work, we recommend checking out the Kershaw Blur Kings Camo as a mission-ready alternative.

Handle Design and Ergonomics

Furthermore, the distinct recurve drop point blade excels at multitasking, offering a slight “S” curve that pulls material into the edge for aggressive cutting of rope and boxes, while the tip remains strong for piercing. Additionally, the handle is machined from 6061-T6 anodized aluminum and features Kershaw’s signature Trac-Tec inserts—textured, rubberized grip tape that provides a secure, non-slip hold even in wet or muddy conditions. Consequently, the reversible pocketclip supports versatile tip-up or tip-down carry, ensuring the knife is always positioned exactly where you need it. You can find full technical details on the official Kershaw Blur BlackWash product page.

Practical Applications and Everyday Carry Uses

  • Rugged EDC: The BlackWash finish hides the wear and tear of daily life, keeping the knife looking good even after years of hard use.

  • Heavy Duty Work: The recurve blade shape is specifically designed for pull-cuts through tough materials like webbing, hose, and rope.

  • All-Weather Grip: The Trac-Tec inserts ensure the knife stays in your hand during rain, snow, or when wearing gloves.

  • General Utility: Handling everything from breaking down heavy cardboard to food prep with the corrosion-resistant 14C28N steel.
