Kershaw Scallion 1620 Pocketknife Overview

The Kershaw Scallion 1620 Pocketknife is a legendary, award-winning compact tool designed by Ken Onion to handle essential cutting tasks with speed and precision. This versatile 2.4-inch blade is crafted from 420HC stainless steel, providing a fine edge that is highly resistant to corrosion and remarkably easy to maintain. Because of its right-sized footprint and durable construction, this folder is the ultimate choice for reliable everyday carry in any environment. Furthermore, the bead-blasted finish on the blade offers a smooth, matte gray aesthetic that hides scratches and resists reflections.

Moreover, the SpeedSafe® assisted opening mechanism ensures the blade deploys rapidly with a simple pull on the integrated flipper tab. In addition to its speed, the secure liner lock and Tip-Lock slider keep the blade safely positioned during use or while stored in a pocket. Because of its 2.3-ounce weight, the Kershaw Scallion 1620 Pocketknife provides significant utility without any unnecessary bulk in your gear. If you like the compact feel of the Scallion but need a slightly larger profile, we recommend checking out the Kershaw Leek as a robust companion.

Efficient 1620 Design in a Precision Frame

Furthermore, the drop point geometry of the Kershaw Scallion 1620 Pocketknife is optimized for precision tasks such as breaking down cardboard boxes, trimming twine, or slicing through retail packaging. The glass-filled nylon handle is textured for a surprisingly secure grip despite its small footprint, ensuring comfort during heavy use. Strategic features like the single-position pocket clip and lanyard hole offer versatile carry options for any user. You can find full technical details on the official Kershaw Scallion product page.
