Kershaw and Emerson's collaborations have lead to knives that combine precision engineering and uncompromising functional design. The Kershaw Emerson CQC-7K (6034T) features a modified tanto blade profile, useful for slicing and punching. The blade also features a dual satin finish on the upper and stonewashed finish on the grind. Textured G-10 on the front scale of the handle gives a secure grip while the stainless steel back has a solid frame lock. The Kershaw Emerson CQC-7K (6034T) is a manual opener that employs the thumb disk or Emerson "wave shaped feature" allowing the knife to be opened as you remove it from your pocket, offering lighting fast deployment. This makes it a favourite among our brave men and women in the military, rescue, and law enforcement. Finally, the pocketclip is reversible for both left or right-handed carry.
