A savvy knife carrier craves such one-handed, no-look convenience when removing an EDC from a pants pocket. With one hand, I could easily manipulate the flipper with my index finger to open the blade. The Freefall again utilizes SpeedSafe assisted opening. Design innovations like this are one of the reasons I appreciate Kershaw knives so much. By enabling me to adjust the tightness of the clip’s fit inside my pocket, I could accommodate pants of various thickness, such as denim jeans or cotton shorts. The real bonus was that the screw on the clip could be loosened, allowing the clip to slide closer to or further away from the handle. The clip could be mounted for either right- or left-handed carry. I appreciated the lanyard hole much more than a pre-drilled hole in the handle, but it could have been wider since many of my lanyards were too big to fit the hole.Ī nice addition at the butt end of the knife handle was the reversible deep-carry clip. Kershaw included a built-in lanyard hole at the back end of the handle. The subtle contouring of the handle fit my hand well, though adults more than 6 feet tall might find the handle to be a little short.
Using both gloves and a bare hand, I confidently gripped the textured handle, even when using sweaty or wet hands.
Kershaw embossed the handle with their K-Texture grip to facilitate a secure grip in a variety of conditions. The black handle of the 3840 is constructed from glass-filled nylon. The color of the blade looked sharp next to the black handle, it produced little glare in the sunlight, and it was very easy to clean. I was really drawn to the stonewashed finish of the blade. Kershaw constructed the blade using 8Cr13MoV stainless steel. The slightly curved blade maintained a sharp edge while easily cutting through a variety of materials. The blade has a flat-ground modified tanto tip which made penetrating tasks very easy to perform. The Kershaw Freefall is a tactically styled EDC. What’s So Special About the Kershaw Freefall Knife Like all Kershaw knives, the Freefall is sharp, well designed, and its appearance is striking. I have recently added the Kershaw Freefall knife 3840 to my collection of EDC knives.
I am the proud owner of several Kershaw knives, specifically the Brawler, Black Horse, and Scrambler.
