Kershaw Outright Black Overview

The Kershaw Outright Black transforms the popular upswept folder into a stealthy, tactical tool designed for discreet carry. This aggressive 3-inch blade is crafted from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, offering a dependable balance of hardness and edge retention for daily use. Because of this durable steel platform, the knife handles slicing tasks with ease, aided by the distinct trailing point profile. Additionally, this model features a pitch-black Black PVD coating on both the blade and handle, providing a non-reflective, scratch-resistant finish that protects the steel from corrosion and wear.

Beyond the tactical finish, the SpeedSafe® assisted opening system ensures rapid, reliable deployment with a simple pull of the flipper or push of the thumb stud. In addition to its speed, the stainless steel handle is enhanced with a black G10 overlay on the front scale, ensuring a secure, textured grip even in wet conditions. Consequently, the slim, monochromatic profile allows this 4-ounce folder to blend seamlessly into your gear. If you prefer this same dynamic design with a pop of color, we recommend checking out the Kershaw Outright Blue.

Construction of the Outright Black

Most significantly, the construction of the Outright Black utilizes a solid stainless steel frame lock to secure the blade. This mechanism moves behind the blade tang to prevent accidental closure during heavy use, ensuring safety when utilizing the sharp tip. The handle is contoured for ergonomic comfort and features a single-position deep-carry pocketclip configured for right-handed, tip-down carry. You can find full technical details on the official Kershaw Outright Black product page.
