The Misdirect is part of Kershaw's popular Starter Series. Its 2.9" blade is a perfect size for everyday cutting tasks and the reverse tanto style ensures the tip is effectively positioned for piercing cuts and enables it to slice through tough packaging and open quantities of mail with ease. Kershaw coated the blade with black-oxide and finished it in BlackWash, an attractive combination that can also hide scratches. The blade can be access with Kershaw's tried-and-true SpeedSafe assisted opening, which helps you open the knife with minimal effort. The efficient flipper double-purposes as a fingerguard when the knife is open. The stainless-steel handle is smooth, sleek, and modern. The bead-blasting gives it a non-reflective matte finish that looks great. The Kershaw logo is lasered on the handle instead of the blade to maintain the Misdirect's clean and minimalistic style.
