Kershaw Fatback (1935)

The Kershaw Fatback 1935 earned its namesake simply because it’s one tasty knife. Like bacon. But it does have some extra fat texturing on its glass-filled nylon handle.

The 8Cr13MoV blade features a black-oxide coating and displays a modified drop-point with a dagger-like shape. With Kershaw’s precision heat treatment, the steel provides long-lasting edge retention, as well as strength and hardness. The black-oxide coating not only looks cool, but also provides a measure of blade protection and non-reflectivity.

The Kershaw Fatback 1935 features SpeedSafe assisted opening for easy, one-handed opening. The oversized pivot could be something about bacon and its extra fat size. The handle itself is drilled to support the four-position pocketclip, so carry tip-up/down, left/right, whatever way you prefer to carry. Plus, the deep-carry pocketclip keeps it low and secure in your pocket when folded.
