In a battery the cathode attracts the positive charge. One look at Kershaw’s new Cathode tanto and we predict you’ll have a very positive attraction indeed.

The Cathode isn’t ultra fancy just ultra functional. The 2.25 inch tanto blade is great for slicing and piercing. A top grind adds a touch of style while heavy jimping on the spine ensures a secure grip – especially when you need to choke up on the blade for detail work. The blade opens with a flipper and our SpeedSafe assisted opening so one-handed opening is a breeze. And since it’s a flipper knife it’s perfect for left or right-handed users.

The handle is stainless steel hot-stamped with a repeating pattern that’s not only looks good but also enhances grip. The Cathode locks up securely during use thanks to the solid frame lock. Black hardware including a backspacer with additional jimping and a reversible pocketclip sets off the Cathode’s all-steel good looks.
