Kershaw takes the popular Link to a higher level with CPM 20CV blade steel and a new machined and anodized aluminum handle. And yes, this Link is still an amazing value and is proudly made in the USA. This premium blade steel offers superior hardness, corrosion resistance, toughness, wear resistance-for top edge retention. The aluminum handle is anodized in olive green and the machined pattern gives it a look that's a real departure from earlier Links, as well as providing enhanced grip.
