The SMKW Exclusive Kershaw Launch 9 Bronze features a 1.8" CPM-154 black DLC deployed and closed by a push-button. CPM 154 steel takes and holds an excellent edge, offers good corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and toughness. Its compact size makes it easy to carry—and appropriate in a variety of situations where you wouldn’t pull out a more aggressive-looking knife. It offers a refined look; almost a gentleman’s automatic.

The Launch 9 also features a bronze anodized aluminum handle with a reversible tip-up pocket clip. A push-button on the handle opens the knife quickly. Push the button again to release the blade to fold it back into the handle.

The Launch 9 features an integrated backspacer with a lanyard hole—perfect for a paracord attachment—and a reversible (left/right, tip-up) pocket clip.
