Yes, the handles look fishy, but they’re precision-machined out of ultralight, durable aluminum, contoured for comfort and even have a durable, long-lasting finish.

Nothing fishy here

There’s a lot more to love about this knife than just its bizarre handle. For instance, it’s made in the USA, so you can count on quality craftsmanship.

It also boasts a reliable, easy-to-maintain 14C28N steel blade. In addition to that hardworking blade, it has a SpeedSafe assisted flipper deployment — one of Kershaw’s hallmark mechanisms — a Tip-Lock for added security, a liner lock for security in use and a convenient pocket clip.

Yes, this knife looks like a novelty, but its design, craftsmanship and material quality make it stand out far beyond its status as a playful oddity.
