Kershaw Leek 1660TROUT Overview

The Kershaw Leek 1660TROUT Pocketknife captures the spirit of the stream with a photorealistic Rainbow Trout graphic applied to its handle. Moreover, the 3-inch blade is precision-forged from Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel, providing the exceptional edge retention and corrosion resistance that anglers and outdoor enthusiasts demand. Furthermore, the blade features a standard bead-blasted finish, creating a matte, non-reflective surface that contrasts perfectly with the vibrant handle design.

Mechanism and Reliability

The patented SpeedSafe® assisted opening system allows for smooth, one-handed deployment using the ambidextrous flipper or thumb stud, making it easy to access your tool even when one hand is occupied with gear. In addition to its lightning-fast action, this model utilizes a secure Liner Lock and a secondary Tip-Lock slider to ensure the blade remains safely positioned during use or transport. Because of its lightweight aluminum construction, the 1660TROUT weighs just 2.6 ounces, making it significantly lighter than the steel-handled models and perfect for a fishing vest or daily carry. If you enjoy the unique graphic handle series but want to show off your American pride, we highly recommend checking out the Kershaw Leek 1660USA as a patriotic alternative.

Handle Design and Ergonomics

Furthermore, the modified drop point blade features a razor-sharp tip that excels at detailed tasks like cutting fishing line or cleaning small game, while the straight edge handles slicing with ease. Additionally, the handle is machined from 6061-T6 aluminum, offering a durable and lightweight frame that is comfortable to grip. Consequently, the reversible pocketclip supports versatile tip-up or tip-down carry, ensuring your knife is always ready for action.
