Affordable, versatile, and built to work — the Clash is one of Kershaw’s most popular all-purpose assisted openers.

The Kershaw Clash is designed as a budget-friendly EDC that doesn’t compromise on performance. Its 3″ blade, crafted from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, has a broad belly and a subtle recurve that enhances slicing power while remaining easy to sharpen. Finished in bead blast, the blade resists wear and staining while maintaining a clean, work-ready look. The SpeedSafe assisted opening system deploys the blade quickly with a satisfying snap, and the ambidextrous flipper makes it accessible for both right- and left-handed users.

The handle is slightly wider and thicker than many slim EDCs, with a deep index-finger groove and textured glass-filled nylon scales for a secure, confident grip. A liner lock keeps the blade firmly in place during use, and the reversible pocket clip allows for tip-up or tip-down carry.
