Kershaw Yellow Scallion Knife



Love this knife

It’s funny, I had been emailing back and forth with sarah from kershaw and one of the questions I asked was about color. Im sick to death of black knives, and im no longer an infantryman so I have no use for tactical. She really didnt know much about future color options, but great customer service! They value their customers for sure. Anyway, I guess I’ll use bullets for pro’s and con’s


Pro’s


1. Its yellow!. I recieved my kershaw catalog and while flipping through this I see it and within ten minutes it had been ordered. I like bright colors if I drop it or sit somewhere it just stands out better. I know they have the scallion with other colors but did not want alluminum.


2. It’s Not alluminum. I dont buy them and really prefer GRN or G10. I just think it feels better in my hand and less slippage in wet enviro’s. Won’t scratch either.


3.Normally on kershaws edc’s that i buy do not have any jimping. This one has a great ramp with jimping and…

My favorite knife


I own several pocket knives, including two other Kershaws, and this Scallion is far and away my favorite. The handle material has good grip and it doesn’t clang around with anything else in my pocket (like keys or coins). One handed opening is very crisp and easy, and the lock is not too loose, not too tight. It is also insanely sharp right out of the box.

I like that you can easily unscrew and remove the pocket clip. I don’t use the clip and it kind of gets in the way for me, so I just took it off, taped the screw to it in case I want to put it back on, and put it in a drawer.



Wife loves it


My wife has a black partially serrated Kershaw Scallion which she absolutely loves, so I purchased the Yellow Scallion. SIZE. She absolutely loves the size. It is super compact, however it feels like a real knife, not a toy.

BLADE STEEL. Came shaving sharp, however it would be nice it was upgraded to at least 440 or 14c28n.

Fit and Finish.. Outstanding materials, however it could be just a bit grippier.

Great knife that loses a point, just for the blade steel..
