Product Description
Inspired by the look of classic Italian stilettos, the Kershaw Launch 8 modernizes this traditional design for a new generation of knife enthusiasts. The Kershaw Launch 8 features the sleek, symmetrical lines of a stiletto in a push-button knife that’s lightweight—only 2.4 ounces—and easy-to-carry. The blade is CPM 154 with a stonewashed finish. The slim blade is sharpened on one side, and it has a deep top grind to lighten weight and add stiletto style.
The handle is gray anodized aluminum with a handsome carbon fiber insert. To maintain the Launch 8’s symmetrical look, the pivot is sunk deep in the handle and covered by the insert. Integrated finger-guards on both top and bottom of the handle keep fingers away from danger. The Launch 8 also has a reversible pocketclip (right/left, tip-up) for convenient carry. *By purchasing this knife you are agreeing to our terms & conditions*

Nice knife
This is a really well built knife, high quality steel, quick action. No wobbly blade. Cant beat it for the price.

Kershaw Launch 8
The knife is a no-brainer, and it's at least $100 everywhere else. This was my first purchse with Perry KW. It probably won't be my last... be price, legit communication, and fast shipping with zero issues.

Kershaw Launch 8
This is a great take on the stillettos of old. I don’t use it for my EDC because I don’t think it’s meant for that, but it’s put together really well and feels solid. There’s no jiggling or play in the blade when open like some automatic knives. The blade is sharp and the edge has held up well after a few weeks of use. I haven’t re-sharpened it yet, but if it’s like all the other Kershaws I have, getting the edge back should be pretty easy. It’s just heavy enough to give confidence without being too heavy to use. I like the clip where it is, but the option to change the orientation is a great feature. I don’t mind the price point considering it’s a quality tool. All in all it’s a cool knife to have in my collection.

Kershaw Launch 8 doesn’t disappoint!
I wanted this blade for a while, having owned other kershaw knives I knew I wouldn’t be disappointed. And I wasn’t! Perry Knifeworks is awesome to deal with !
