Kershaw Dawnstar 1423

Kershaw Dawnstar Tactical Knife

The Dawnstar features a 3.5-inch hawkbill blade ground from 8Cr13MoV steel with a BlackWash finish. The curved blade design handles cutting tasks like rope, boxes, and straps, with a false edge near the spine for enhanced push cuts. Glass-filled nylon handles with textured surfaces provide grip at 3.4 ounces. SpeedSafe assisted opening activates with the flipper tab for one-handed deployment. A liner lock secures the blade open during use. Weight-relieving pockets in the handle reduce carry weight, and a circular sharpening choil aids blade maintenance. The reversible deep-carry clip allows right or left-hand carry, tip-up only. At 4.4 inches closed, the Dawnstar fits easily in a pocket. A custom backspacer completes the design.
