Why Choose the Kershaw Iridium?

D2 Tool Steel Blade

The Iridium features a 3.4-inch blade manufactured from D2 tool steel.

D2 is known for its wear resistance and ability to maintain a sharp cutting edge through regular use.

It is an excellent choice for everyday utility tasks where edge retention is important.

Because D2 is not fully stainless, the blade should be cleaned and dried after exposure to moisture.

Smooth KVT Ball-Bearing Opening

The Iridium uses Kershaw’s KVT ball-bearing opening system.

This allows the blade to open smoothly using the thumb studs, providing a satisfying manual opening action.

Unlike assisted opening knives, the Iridium does not use a spring-assisted opening mechanism.

Secure DuraLock Crossbar Lock

The Kershaw Iridium features the innovative DuraLock locking system.

A steel crossbar engages the blade tang to secure the blade in the open position.

The ambidextrous lock controls allow convenient operation for both right- and left-handed users.

Durable Aluminum Handle

The handle is manufactured from 6061-T6 aluminum, providing a strong yet lightweight foundation for the knife.

Its gray anodized finish gives the Iridium a clean, modern appearance.

The handle’s smooth contours provide comfortable handling during routine cutting tasks.

Stonewashed Blade with Satin Grinds

The Iridium’s blade combines a stonewashed finish with attractive satin grinds.

This two-tone treatment creates a distinctive appearance while helping make minor wear marks less noticeable.

Bronze-Anodized Accents

The custom pivot and bronze-anodized backspacer give the Iridium an upscale appearance.

These details complement the gray aluminum handle and contrasting blade finish.

Ambidextrous Everyday Carry

With dual thumb studs, an ambidextrous DuraLock, and a reversible pocket clip, the Iridium is designed to accommodate both right- and left-handed users.

The deep-carry pocket clip supports discreet, convenient pocket carry.

Practical 3.4-Inch Blade

The Iridium’s 3.4-inch blade provides a versatile cutting edge for opening packages, cutting tape, trimming cord, and performing general utility tasks.

Its blade length offers a useful balance between cutting capability and everyday portability.

Lightweight and Comfortable

At approximately 3.3 ounces, the Iridium provides substantial cutting capability without excessive weight.

Its 4.5-inch closed length makes it convenient for daily pocket carry.

Lanyard Hole Included

The handle includes a lanyard hole for attaching a compatible lanyard or retention cord.

This provides an additional option for personalizing the knife or improving accessibility.

Modern Styling at an Accessible Price

The Iridium combines features commonly associated with more expensive folding knives, including D2 tool steel, aluminum handles, ball-bearing opening, and a crossbar lock.

This makes it an attractive choice for customers seeking premium-style features without a premium price.

An Excellent Gift for Knife Enthusiasts

With its distinctive styling, smooth opening action, and practical everyday carry features, the Kershaw Iridium makes a thoughtful gift for knife enthusiasts.

It’s an excellent choice for birthdays, Father’s Day, Christmas, graduations, and other special occasions.

Perfect For

Everyday carry, opening packages, cutting tape, general utility work, warehouse tasks, outdoor activities, pocketknife collections, D2 steel enthusiasts, Kershaw collectors, and anyone looking for a modern manual folding knife with a crossbar lock.
