## Description

Ken Onion Leek Knife with Black Tungsten DLC Coating

Review: Pas mal - Le couteau est très bien, mais étonnamment, alors qu'il s'agit normalement du meme modèle, l'autre que j'ai acheté simultanément (http://www.desertcart.fr/gp/product/B00AU6NKFG/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0 ) lui est largement supérieur en tout : - Qualité visuelle - Pouvoir coupant - Facilité de nettoyage C'est bizarre d'ailleurs, celui la coute €20 de plus que le "Kershaw Leek A/O", donc achetez l'autre, et gardez les 20 euros pour autre chose
Review: Black Kersaw Leek - A Beautiful every day carry knife! - So I have been wanting to get a small knife as an upgrade to my very old swiss army and looked around and read a ton of reviews on various knives. I ended up looking at Kershaw knives because they're associated with Ken Onion and Shun... I own Shun knives and find them to be spectacular knives so I thought why not give some Kershaw Ken Onion designs a try. As a side note, before looking for a knife upgrade I had no idea there would be so many options and I didn't even know there was a cult following of knife collectors/etc out there. I thought it would be hard to find reviews about knives but I came to find out that there were enough reviews out there to make my head spin! So... the point is, please know that this review is from the point of view of someone who is not a knife collector and knew very little about knives/steel/etc before this. All I knew was that I wanted to get a few new knives for me and my wife and I wanted to get something that was quality as I had become accustomed to using knives as sharp as my Shun's in my kitchen. I wanted to get something extra small, small, and medium in size so I went with the Chive, Leek, and Blur. Below you'll find mini reviews on each knife that I have bought including pros and cons. On to the actual reviews! Kershaw Chive Black -------------------- Pros: 1. Compact yet fits in hand nicely (I have normal size hands) 2. Stylish! The black is really sleek and even professional looking. 3. Incredibly sharp! I think this has 420HC steel... it's razor sharp as expected with anything Ken Onion Cons: 1. desertcart's picture make it look like the handle has contours to it because of the reflections... not so. It's flat on both sides... not sure if that's a con or not but be aware that if you think there are contours in the handle, there aren't! 2. Thumb studs are useless unless you have tiny hands... 3. Can be slippery 4. Fingerprint magnet! Conclusion: Though my cons list outweigh my pros, this knife still gets 5 stars. After all, it's still a razor sharp and compact knife that's stylish to boot! The cons I have for this knife are really just nitpicking... Couldn't be happier with this one! Kershaw Leek Black -------------------- Pros: 1. Perfect size for every day carry... not too small and not too big 2. Great looking knife. The flat black looks really good IMO. 3. Incredibly sharp! The 14C28N steel is great... it's razor sharp, slightly sharper than the Chive in my opinion Cons: 1. None, this knife is pretty great. Conclusion: This knife is pretty perfect as an every day carry knife. Looks great, feels great in the hand and is very very sharp. I actually gave this one to my wife so she could keep it on her every day for her commute to and from work as sometimes she has to walk to her car in some dark spots in my neighborhood in the city. I was afraid she wouldn't use it but she actually takes it with her every day and carries it in hand every day to her car. She has said that she likes it a lot and likes the locking mechanism because she knows that when its locked the blade won't accidentally come out. Kershaw Random Leek with partially serrated blade (grey) -------------------- Pros: 1. Perfect size for every day carry... not too small and not too big... as expected with the Leek 2. Great looking knife. The flat grey looks very good in person. 3. Incredibly sharp! This leek came with s30v steel and it has not disappointed me. While I feel that all Kershaw Ken Onion knives will be razor sharp, this s30v blade seems and even looks to be sharper than the others I've mentioned in this review Cons: 1. The grey does look nice but the handle kind of has the texture of a chalk board. I'm hoping this goes away with continued use as I really don't like the feel of chalk board... Conclusion: Besides the texture of the handle, this knife seems to be perfect in every way for me. I like that it's only partially serrated with a scallop serrated edge rather than the pointy serrated edges. I never really find the pointy serrated edges that useful. The scalloped serrated edge seems much more useful to me as it gives just enough serration to cut through things without getting caught on them which is my experience with other serrated edge knives. As of right now, this knife wins as my every day carry knife. Kershaw Blur with s30v Steel -------------------- Pros: 1. Good size, has some heft to it unlike the Leek and Chive 2. The Easy-grip Trac-Tec inserts are great... give it a nice feel in the hand 3. Incredibly sharp! Having read up on the s30v steel I definitely wanted to see this one for myself. The blade on this is slightly longer than the leek and it has more of a curve to it, which makes it useful in certain situations over my trusty leek. Cons: 1. Would have liked to have a quick release speed safe mechanism on this knife like the leek and chive. The thumb studs are ok but take some getting used to if you haven't used anything like them before like me. 2. No lock... a con for me but probably a pro for others. Conclusion: All in all this knife is great. I use this knife for when I need something a bit more heavy duty than the leek and chive. SO... Which one is my favorite? If I had to choose it'd be the s30v leek with serrated edge. For me, the leek has the best size for an every day carry knife and the s30v blade just tops it off. The Chive, Leek, and Blur really do have different purposes for me though. The Chive is something I can keep in the office, the Leek is an every day carry, while the blur is more heavy duty for camping/etc when you need a heftier blade. In any case, after getting these knives I think I'll be set for quite some time in the knife department!

### ⭐ Produit endommagé
*by B***N on 4 February 2016*

Je suis très déçu par ce produit que j'ai reçu endommagé. En effet, le produit m'a été livré avec le système de sécurité cassé.(qui permet de bloquer l'ouverture de la lame) Aussi je me demande si le produit était neuf ou s'il s'agit d'un défaut de conception.
