5Fast steel at an unbelievable price
By Nutnfancy
I have hundreds of tactical folders to compare this knife to and it stands up superbly. It’s build quality is outstanding, opens speedily and easily, quality of the steel is adequate, the blade shape is beautiful and useful, the grip is comfortable and much bettered over earlier version (they had sand paper, current version has thin rubber inserts), and Kershaw’s service and support is perfect.
In my obligation use in the military, I have used Blurs for various years and they always impress. For $55 you ought to buy assorted and give them as heirloom gifts. Other knives with these features and opening speed, including automatics like Microtech and ProTech, will cost three times as much. A great knife that will last for a limitless time with care.

5Blur is Superb
By Scott Leitch
It took me a minute to grasp the right way to open this knife, it’s not like the Chive or Leek. Once I did, OH YEAH; just push straight forward with your thumb and this thing is Black Lightning. The grip is such that you could hold onto the knife if it was covered in grease. I love all of Ken Onion’s designs but this is the best one yet from Kershaw.

5Tactical Magic
By Knife Knut
Fun, cool, outstanding, fast, well built, ok ok I get it on with the review.
Best Tactical folder I own. here’s why
Upside;
1. Fastest assisted opener I’ve seen. A little thumb pressure on the genuinely well crafted thumb studs and “smack”. Opens in a “blur”.
2. Blade stregth is superb. Arrives sharp, stays sharp, and cuts with ease.
3. Perfect size. Extremely comfertable in the hand.
4. The grip is very good. An closely soft rubbery silicone grip tape along the outside will not grant you to let go.
5. Pre drilled holes for tip up or tip down carry.
6. If you get the Blur with the partially serrated edges, the serrations are wicked sharp.
7. Well built, put it through abuse fella’s just don’t get stupid with it.

Downside;
1. Thumb jimping is beauteous weak, however, the grip tape works.
2. The pocket clip is reallllly tight. Tough to draw from the pocket without bringing your pocket with it.

Overall, I own several, buy it. Its great. It is the one knife I take every day on duty. I refuse to leave my patrol car without it. Good occupation Kershaw.
