The Lateral is a strong, everyday carry work knife and snaps into action with Kershaw's assisted opening. Its wide drop point blade features a slight recurve and is great for difficult cutting tasks. The gray, swooping handle texture is ergonomic and the reversible extra-deep-carry pocket clip rides subtly in the pocket during travel. The 8Cr13MoV blade takes a sharp edge and is easy to re-sharpen when needed and the stonewashed finish helps hide use scratches. Custom backspacer; extra-deep-carry pocketclip is easily reversible for left/right carry.
