Kershaw Launch 9 1.8 inch Automatic Knife - With its under-2-inch blade， the Launch 9 may look like a smaller version of our best-selling Launch 2， but it has its own appeal.
Its compact size makes it easy to carry—and appropriate in a variety of situations where you wouldn’t pull out a more aggressive-looking knife. Built of the same upgraded materials as the rest of the Launch series， the Launch 9’s blade has a “working” finish—somewhat rougher than stonewashed to easily hide the scuffs that a working knife earns on the job.
