Description

The Kershaw Launch 7 brings stiletto-inspired style to a modern automatic platform — a long, slender CPM154 blade fires open with the push of a side button for instant, reliable deployment.
The olive-anodized 6061 aluminum handle is slim and lightweight, designed for deep pocket carry with a reversible tip-up clip that disappears against clothing.
A best compact automatic knife for EDC enthusiasts who appreciate classic stiletto aesthetics married to modern metallurgy and American manufacturing.

**Slim, Swift, Silent**
The Launch 7 sits so flat in the pocket you forget it is there — until a package, cord, or envelope demands attention and the blade appears with a single press, task completed before onlookers register the motion.
The stiletto-profile blade threads through narrow cuts and punctures with needle-like precision, yet the belly curve handles everyday slicing with surprising competence.
**Tualatin Craftsmanship, Italian Inspiration**
Kershaw manufactures every Launch model at their Tualatin, Oregon facility, where CNC machines cut, grind, and assemble each knife with the same precision that built the brand’s 50-year reputation.
The Launch 7 draws its silhouette from classic Italian stilettos — the long, narrow blade and slender handle proportions — then reimagines them with CPM154 powder steel and aerospace aluminum for a knife that honors tradition while outperforming it.

Knife Care & Maintenance
Keep your blade performing at its best. Rinse and dry after each use to prevent corrosion. Apply a thin coat of mineral oil to the blade periodically. Sharpen with a whetstone or honing rod at a consistent angle. Store in a sheath, knife roll, or magnetic strip — never loose in a drawer. For carbon and Damascus steel, wipe after contact with acidic foods. For folding knives, clean the pivot area and apply a drop of lubricant to ensure smooth deployment.
