Kershaw Leek BlackWash Pocket Knife, $50 (was $100) on Amazon

This Kershaw knife is made in the US and features a 3-inch, drop-point plain-edge blade. The blade itself is crafted from Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel, which gives it superior edge retention and also makes it easy to resharpen. It wears a black oxide coating for sleek looks and added scratch resistance. The blade is paired with a tough stainless steel handle that’s also coated in BlackWash, and the handle features a reversible pocket clip, so you can carry the knife on either side, tip up or tip down. The Leek is equipped with Kershaw’s SpeedSafe design, so you can safely open the blade with one hand, and the frame lock and tip lock keep the blade secure and in place whether it’s opened or closed. Like any good pocket knife, it’s also super portable: It measures just 4 inches long when closed, and it weighs a paltry 3 ounces.

Amazon reviewers have heaped praise on the Leek in BlackWash, highlighting its sturdy build and excellent functionality. “For a daily carry, nothing compares to this little Kershaw,” one shopper said. “It's simply the best pocket knife I've ever handled.”

A quality blade like the Kershaw Leek will last for years to come, and at half off, it’s an especially worthy investment. But don’t wait around on this one: These knives are selling fast, and a deep discount like this likely won’t last much longer.
