Kershaw Cryo | 1555Ti

The Kershaw Cryo | 1555TI is a highly popular assisted opening folding knife resulting from a collaboration with renowned knife designer Rick Hinderer, built for reliable performance in everyday and work scenarios. This model features a 2.75-inch (approx. 7 cm) Drop Point blade with a plain edge, crafted from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, a practical blade steel known for its balance of edge retention, strength, and ease of sharpening. The blade has a hollow grind and is finished with a durable matte grey titanium carbo-nitride coating, providing enhanced corrosion resistance and a non-reflective surface that complements the handle. The knife utilizes Kershaw's SpeedSafe assisted opening system for fast and smooth blade deployment via the integrated flipper. A robust frame lock mechanism, incorporating Rick Hinderer's lockbar stabilizer to prevent over-extension, ensures secure blade lock-up. The handle is constructed from stainless steel with a matching matte grey titanium carbo-nitride coating and features steel tube spacers. With an overall length of 6.5 inches (approx. 16.5 cm) when open and a closed length of 3.75 inches (approx. 9.5 cm), and weighing 4.1 ounces (approx. 116 g), the Cryo offers a solid feel without being excessively heavy. The versatile deep-carry pocket clip can be configured in four positions (right/left, tip-up/down), allowing for personalized carry. Designed in the USA with prototyping and quality control also in the USA, this knife is manufactured in China. It also typically includes a thumb stud for opening and a lanyard hole.
