Kershaw's Outright has a durable and scratch-resistant PVD coating on both blade and handle that is bright blue and the color is the first thing that you will notice about this attractive pocketknife. Its upswept blade makes it an excellent slicer, while the 8Cr13MoV blade steel ensures good edge retention, strength, and hardness. The Outright's handle is matching blue PVD-coated steel with a sturdy frame lock. For additional style and enhanced grip, the handle has an overlay of black G10. This medium-sized knife opens with SpeedSafe assisted opening with flipper or thumb stud.
