I ordered this to beat on at work to help keep my ZT hinderer and benchmade contego in great shape. Cpm 20cv for $73 shipped after my 10% off is hard to beat. We shall see!!
I have carried mine everyday for a month. I love everything about the knife. I love the action of the speed safe and how the knife feels in hand. I did add traction tape witch I find helps when handling the knife. I would buy another one.
I love speedsafe! Wonder why so many hate it. It's basically a legal switchblade and I've never had one fail. And if it does it turns into a manual knife on washers. I like ball bearing knives but not as much as spring assist.
Good morning Andy! The Kershaw Link, really is a great knife, and one of their very best. : - ) 70° here Sunday afternoon, and 23° the next morning. That's no good!
Good morning !! That is a nice looking knife . I know the speed safe assures an open every time , I just don’t care for assisted opening . Even though it shouldn’t take much effort on a good knife , I love putting in the work to open it . Even the dreaded failed flip that is usually followed with 10 or so successful flips to make it right ...
That's knifes a home run. I just wish there was a Marine edition in dress blue color way. You'd get $88 dollars from my disability so fast. I don't know a 'devil dog' who wouldn't buy that!
I don't mind the speedsafe action but the thought of torsion bar problems turns me off. That said, I've had a Leek for a little over a year and I've probably opened and closed it a couple thousand times without issue. The Link is a very nice looking knife with a great blade shape.
I’ve been thinking about getting this...I’m kinda going Kershaw crazy right now,I have the Knockout with M390 blade and carbon fiber scales coming in the mail right now..I’m planning on getting the blacked out Bareknuckle in 20CV this weekend...may get this Link before long as well as the Dividend with either the new composite blade made up of N690 and D2 or I may get it in Damascus
I dislike the speedsafe especially on a more expensive knife... Bearings would have just as much snap except it'll drop shut down and be much more comfortable. I've had a few speedsafes break on me with little use.
This Link might be THE best value out there currently. Benchmade is charging double for something similar in their Bugout series though for an AluéS90V knife...20cv comparable. For a smaller knife and their knife is for 'lighter work'....and overpriced...the Bugout -4 (AluéS90V). So many pluses.... Get one even if you havenèt bought into 'super steels' ...pricing is too good. Priced under the PM2. Better knife IMHO. The PM2 is over-hyped. And Ièm not an Èenthusiast'...heh..
I got this knife for father's day and every screw was stripped except 1 scale, and 1 pivot screw. I hope Kershaw fixes it under warranty once I need to clean/service the knife.
I would recommend this knife; but....The ONLY drawback on this knife is one (1). There is no jimping where your thumb would go when cutting or applying pressure. As a result it's slippery as butter. Benchmade puts jimping in the exact same spot on all their knives and on my Kershaw Blur, and all other Kershaws, it had jimping there for added grip safety. Otherwise; a great knife and value.
OD Green is everywhere this year, and I like it! Big fan of the Leek, may have to get its big brother!

Just bought this at a local store in 20cv for $52.00 now that’s a killer deal on a great knive
@@edwardabrams4972 Damn somebody owes me $20 lol, still worth 70 bucks for sure real happy with it so far
Love it! I really like Kershaw knives, and flipper/Speed Safe models in particular.
Great value with that steel! Know I love the Bareknuckle Blackout with it.

I love a Kershaw and the Speed Safe action. Looks like another one is going on my SMKW wish list for my next order.

I used to love assisted blades, but ever since I experienced ball bearing manual flippers, it’s hard to look back
Oh boy, I need this knife in my life.
20cv under a 💯 even with speed safe it should sell well 👊
My kind of knife. I have been looking at the Link recently.
I have the m390 version and love it. Know little about 20cv, not sure if it's much better than m390 to get this one.
They are about the same.
Simply Splendid

It's just a tad heavy and it's slippery. Other than that, for an $80 20CV knife, it's great!!
Did kershaw ever put out the collateral or the turismo haven't seen them any where
I have 5 Kershaw knifes .3 speedsafe and 2 manual flippers

How does it stand against m390 link?
CPM 20CV is the same as M390 (same composition).
I love everything except the speedassist.
Yo smkw I'm looking for 2 knives that are the same and different color like the dozier or kurshuffle. Know of any others?
OD Green boring, otherwise not a bad looking knife.
