Kershaw Leek Folding Knife - 3" 14C28N Sandvik Steel Blade, 410 Stainless Steel Handle - Black (1660CKT)

Daniel Abbott: Very clean knife. Out of the box it shaved the hair from my arm as well as a razor. I then cut the flaps off a bunch of boxes at work probably about 20 boxes, then shaved my arm again no problem. I was pleasantly surprised with how well it retained its edge

Tannerc117: Very smooth action and perfect size. It comes sealed in plastic so once you take it out it starts oxidizing completely uniquely. Takes the classic leek to the next level.

TechMonster: This is an "assisted-opening" pocket knife (check to ensure it is legal in your state before buying). Convenient clip allows you to carry it in your pocket without having to dig for it. The blade is SHARP and the quality is EXCELLENT. Open by pressing the tab on the side of the knife opposite where the knife folds. One-handed ease of opening is excellent. Easy to use. Very convenient for those times when using two hands to open your knife would be difficult. And the warranty, like the knife, is excellent. I took away a star from the lock feature because locking the knife (so the assist won't deploy the blade) is somewhat of a two-handed job. That said, it is a knife worthy of 5 stars.

AlphaCube: Parfait,

Il est sympas niveau esthétique et il coupe super méga fort.
Je l'avais acheté car je le trouvais bien joli mais une fois en main, je voudrais pas me faire arrêter par la police avec ce couteau en poche.

L'ouverture est franche, rapide et précise.
Aucuns jeux dans l'axe.

Wade M. PageWade M. Page: No big surprises at first glance. But as I handled the knife, the allure, the wide appreciation and reasons for its huge popularity started to become apparent.

From the first moment I put my index finer on the flipper and pushed. I realized almost immediately when it wouldn't budge, that it has the same safety lock as my old 2002 model Kershaw Chive, which is still going strong BTW. I usually am not a fan of blade locks on knives, even assisted ones. But the two Kershaws (Chive and the Leek), are both so damned sharp with very fine/sharp tips and are so easy to deploy, that in the case of these two, I can agree if not with the need, at least the option. I will continue to use the locks, as they won't be my "go to" defensive knives. And the lock can save the nasty little red line that appears seemingly out of nowhere when these two blades snap out. The blade is long since locked before the blood has time to appear. Did I say wicked tip?!?!?

I practiced so much and for so many years with the Chive that even after years of not carrying it, the muscle memory is still intact. I knew in a milisecond how to release the lock on the Leek. I like that the lock is small,...

Bernhard: Ich habe mich lange nach einen alltagstauglichen Messer umgesehen. Nach stundenlanger Suche auf Amazon und Youtube, kam ich zum KERSHAW LEEK.

Ich sag nur 1A!!! Nach langen überlegen war ich mir nicht ganz sicher (so viel Geld für so wenig Messer???)

Blödsinn, die Verarbeitung ist TOP, die Klinge hat KEINEN mm Spielraum und der Schliff und die Schärfe sind echt ein Wahnsinn

Kann es nur empfehlen, das perfekte Messer für jeden Tag

Izzy: Il coupe comme un rasoir, il est absolument magnifique et le méchanisme d'ouverture fonctionne à merveille.
J'adore la forme de la lame, qui est tres bien réalisée (bout tres tres pointu, on dirait une aiguille).
Il faut faire tres attention en l'aiguisant de ne pas abimer le bout pointu, qui perd facilement ses qualités si on a la main un peu lourde.

gadgetman: 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...
