Description

The Kershaw Livewire OTF automatic knife stands out in the realm of modern knife technology. It features a DLC black-finished Magnacut blade and a black anodized aluminum handle for a serious tactical look and feel. Few knives garner as much excitement as out-the-front automatics. After significant research, careful development, and rigorous testing, in-house designers and custom knifemaker Matt Diskin delivered Kershaw's first OTF auto: the Livewire.

This Magnacut blade has a deployment mechanism that operates with authority, making it a standout product. The black-anodized aluminum handle is textured for a secure grip, and the DLC (Diamong-Like Carbon) Magnacut steel offers unmatched edge retention and toughness.

Its curved, staircase-like button feels comfortable on the thumb for reliable deployment. In addition, this knife is a joy to carry due to its lightweight and reversible deep-carry clip. Fans have been asking for it, and the Livewire is every bit worth the wait.

Made in the USA.

    This has quickly made its way to the top of my EDC rotation. Great blade steel, the action is buttery smooth and its way lighter than I thought it would be. The clip is a little tight if you have thicker material or seams. That is the only flaw I could find and thats being nitpicky. One thing to keep in mind though is per the included brochure, Kershaw voids the warranty if you take it apart and you need to sign a release form with documentation that you are first responder or military to have the knife shipped back to you from Kershaw after a service.
