GearPatrol: Cult Classic Kershaw is back after 14 years

GearPatrol: Cult Classic Kershaw is back after 14 years

Kershaw released its first knife back in 1974, which means this year marks 50 years in business for the Oregon-based brand.

Over the years, the brand has gained a reputation as a value proposition, and is often a first “serious” pocket knife for those first dipping a toe into EDC. My own first pocket knife, in fact, was a Ken Onion-designed Kershaw Leek.

But Kershaw doesn’t just operate on the budget end of the pocket knife spectrum. On occasion, the brand has shown the ability to produce high-end knives, too, with impressive results.

To celebrate its 50th anniversary, Kershaw has launched a new version of a cult-favorite knife from 2010, and it’s one of the coolest and most covetable Kershaws ever.

14 years ago, Kershaw released the Tilt. At the time, it looked like nothing else. That remains true today, with its extreme, angular design looking more like a Cybertruck than any other pocket knife I can think of.

But the Tilt wasn’t just an extreme design for design’s sake. Nor was it all style and no substance. The knife was large but extremely lightweight, thanks to a mix of titanium and carbon fiber in the handle, and its funky shape was said to be extremely comfortable in hand by those who had the good fortune of handling a Tilt.

Yeah, no.  It really doesn’t do it for me. And FWIW, the Liong Mah KUF looks more like a Cybertruck.
