MMMM, FATBACK
No, the Fatback does not have a fat back. In fact, it has a rather slim handle. But to ensure you always have an extra secure grip, it does have some extra fat texturing on its glass-filled nylon handle.
Actually, we call it the Fatback because it's one very tasty knife. Like bacon.
The handsome blade is a modified drop-point with a dagger-like shape. The 8CrMoV blade steel, with Kershaw's precision heat treatment, provides long-lasting edge retention, as well as strength and hardness. Black-oxide coating offers an additional measure of blade protection and non-reflectivity.
The Fatback opens with Kershaw's SpeedSafe assisted opening for smooth, one-handed opening. The pivot is oversized and decorative. The handle is drilled to support our four-position pocketclip—so you can carry tip-up/down, left/right, whatever your preferred carry position. And finally, the Fatback's deep-carry pocketclip lets the knife ride securely and comfortably low in the pocket.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Flipper
May be used on either manual or assisted opening knives. The “flipper' is a protrusion on the back of the blade that the user can pull back on, or flip, in order to move the blade easily out of the handle.
SpeedSafe®
Assists you to open any SpeedSafe® knife quickly and easily with a manual push on the thumbstud or pull back on the flipper; built into many Kershaw best sellers.
Liner Lock
Locks the blade open during use; one side of the knife's steel “liner,' the steel plate to which the handle scales are attached, moves into position behind the blade to securely lock it open.
4-Position
The user may position the pocketclip for tip-up or tip-down, left- or right-handed carry.
