## Overview

The Kershaw Barstow is a sleek, dagger-style folding knife featuring a 3-inch spear point blade crafted from durable 8Cr13MoV stainless steel with a scratch-masking BlackWash finish. Its glass-filled nylon handle offers a secure grip and reversible deep-carry clip for ambidextrous convenience. Equipped with Kershaw’s SpeedSafe assisted one-handed opening and a liner lock for safety, this lightweight 3.4 oz knife balances tactical readiness with everyday practicality, all backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

## Description

The Barstow is a little wicked and a lot of value. Everything about this slim folding dagger is simple, direct, and ready. The straight spear-point blade is sharpened on a single side. The handle has glass-filled nylon scales with heavy arrow-patterned texture to enhance grip. The Barstow’s dark good looks are set off by touches of subtle color—blue anodized tube spacers and rings in the flipper/fingerguard. Kershaw’s SpeedSafe assisted one-handed opening makes it easy for quick, convenient blade release using the built-in flipper. You can look to Kershaw for everyday carrying knives that can tame any cardboard box and liberate any purchase from its plastic packaging, sporting knives that make hunting, fishing, watersports, and camping even better, work knives that won’t let you down, and tactical knives that ensure you’re ready for anything.

Review: Great price feels nice, has some heft to it and I love the look of it - Some of these reviews are over critical. I was impressed I’m a Kershaw fan and this is some thing different from them it has a classy look. I love the anodized blue and the pattern on the scales really grew on me I’m not in to paying hundreds of dollars for a knife, I like to get a budget friendly knife that feels like a great value and is attractive. The blade shape is great mine was very tight and sturdy with zero play at all the only thing I’m not a fan of is assisted opening I’d rather it just be a flipper but I’m sure most people like the assisted opening so that may be a plus for you. I like the look of the knife even more in person and it feels good in the hand. Very cool knife.
Review: Sharp! - It’s a Kershaw, what more really needs to be said? I’ll say it anyway. First off, the spring assist is a must for me due to hand issues. It actually seems a bit stronger than the other ones I have. The handle feels nice in my hand, and it’s very sharp. The clip is on the opposite end of all my other knives, which is changeable from sides, just not the other end. It’s just something I’ll have to get used to, or not. Anyway, the price was right, I received it quickly. I have no regrets or complaints about this purchase. Good knives with a good warranty. I would buy this again.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Double edged? Thanks!**
A: Single edge. The rear edge is ground in such a way that you can put an edge on it. But I’d recommend against it for safety reasons.

**Q: Can it be deassisted ?**
A: Probably, but the blade does not ride on bearings. If de-assisted it would most likely be hard to open. Also the blade does not have traditional thumb studs or finger nail groves. It was only designed for the assist.

**Q: Anyone else having problem of sending wrong knife?**
A: We would encourage you to contact Amazon as they should fix this for you, but please contact us via our website if the issue persists.

**Q: Is it made in USA?**
A: China

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good purchase
*by B***N on June 21, 2025*

I have an eye for good quality and am very pleased with this one. Lock up and blade are tight and simply just a cool little knife for my collection. Good buy. Update 9/20/2025 - been carrying and using every day in construction work since mid June 2025. Probably the best knife purchase I've made. Worth every penny.
