A refined balance of toughness and style — the KS4038 pairs D2 tool steel performance with sleek carbon fiber accents.

The Kershaw KS4038 is a modern folding knife that blends work-ready durability with upscale design. Its 3.25″ blade is crafted from D2 tool steel, a high-carbon, high-chromium steel prized for its excellent edge retention and toughness. The stonewash finish gives the blade a rugged, worn-in look while helping to hide scratches from use. The handle combines textured black G10 for grip with a carbon fiber inlay for a touch of sophistication. Lightweight at just 0.2 lbs, the KS4038 is slim enough for everyday carry yet strong enough for demanding tasks.
