KERSHAW Chive Folding Blade Knife (Rainbow)
The Chive series features Kershaw`s SpeedSafe ambidextrous opening system for smooth, easy opening by both right and left-handed users. Closed, the Chive is less than three inches long-perfect for pocket carry. The blade is made of high-carbon 420HC stainless steel for good edge retention, easy resharpening, and excellent toughness. Some also feature high-tech coatings for enhanced performance and aesthetic appeal. The Chive series also offers a variety of handle materials and finishes-Tungsten DLC, Titanium Oxide rainbow, and our `smoked` anodized aluminum finish in three handsome colors. Our newest handle is anodized aluminum in fashionable pink. All Chives also feature the Safety Tip Lock to ensure the blade stays securely inside the handle until the user releases it, and a removable pocket clip for easy carrying. The Chive may be the smallest member of the `Onion` family, but it`s got all the advanced features knife users demand.

SpeedSafe
SpeedSafe is the patented, assisted-opening system built into many of Kershaw`s best-selling Ken Onion knives. SpeedSafe assists the user to smoothly open the knife with a manual push on the blade`s thumb stud or Index-Open system. (Index-Open uses a protruding portion of the blade`s finger guard to give the user an alternative to the thumb stud. The user manually pulls back on the protrusion with the index finger to open the blade.)
Frame Lock
Locks the blade into position after the blade is deployed.
To release the frame lock simply press the spring loaded lock and the blade will easily fold back into the handle.
Thumb Stud
This is a knob, disc, or an attachment to the blade near the handle of a folding knife that allows the user to open the knife using one hand. Many times this can be done with either the right or left hand on models that offer ambidextrous opening.
Pocket Clip
The Kershaw pocket clip is just that, a pocket clip. It is not to be worn on the belt, as this can be an unsafe way to carry your knife. It is meant to be clipped with the handle on the inside of your pocket and the clip is on the outside of your pants.
Many of our models that come with clips can be kept all the way inside your pocket, as in rolling around the bottom of your pocket. It can also be used as a money clip. This clip may be removed if you choose. Please see other descriptions, such as Reversible Clip.
