Kershaw Lucha Steel Butterfly Knife, Stonewash Blade

Love the fit quality of the first one (bought 3 months ago) that I bought a second one. Great quality knife.

Great solid knife, very sharp. Tight in a good way, no movement. Finish and fit are great. Extremely happy :). It is a little longer and heavier than some, but I am use to that.

I haven't had many of these types of knives however I have to say Kershaw really knocked it out of the park this is the most I've ever spent on this type of knife and the quality definitely justifies the cost. The tolerances on these things are amazing everything is tight where it needs to be tight everything is smooth where it needs to be smooth. Other people that like flipping these knives have complained that the scales are poor well they're poor for flipping they're not poor for construction it's a personal opinion. There are aftermarket additions you can make to the scales if you want to spend an extra $160 bucks. I like this knife so much I bought both versions the black and the stonewash and a custom rig to carry it on my belt. I spend most of the day just sitting there flipping this exceedingly sharp knife and I've only gotten bitten once for being absent minded and trying a different technique. If you like these types of knives and you want something that's really quality and durable and manufactured the right way but you don't want to pay in excess of 2 to $300 then this is a perfect choice.

As a moderate flipper who’s flipped for three years I gotta say Kershaw changed the game with this one. Yes the handles are stainless, but they’re really darn cool, feel great and honestly aren’t bad at all. The hardware could use a bit of work, one of the screws holding the spacers seems to have stripped threads however I can just get em out. Little better than a BM 6x, for like 300 bucks less with a bit more handle bias. I enjoy it a lot! Can’t really expect much more honestly, it’s a bargain and flips very well. With some general modifications it can probably be considered one of the better flippers you can get nowadays. Only wish it had a pocket clip, but my 51 suits that for now! Kershaw definitely has made an amazing return after years in stasis since their last project being the original Kimura. Can’t wait to see if ZT does anything with the design!
