Product Description
2002 Blade Magazine "Knife of the Year." Titanium-oxide coated stainless steel handle and blade. Ken Onion Speed Safe assisted opening design. Includes soft zipper case.Kershaw Ken Onion Rainbow Leek Folding Knife with Speed Safe Review
An elegant knife which opens easily, but not too vigorously, and locks open. Can be locked shut with 'speed-safe' tab at the heel of the knife. A little better for right-handed use, this knife can reasonably be managed with the left hand as well, though there are knives more completely suited for left-handed use available (Spyderco models, for example).This knife may be carried blade up or blade down in the pocket by moving the pocket clip.
For a smaller hand (I'm 5'11" with a medium large hand) look at the Rainbow Scallion, with it's scimitar-inspired blade shape for a sleek, elegant alternative to the Rainbow Leek.
The rainbow finish is really a nice touch, complementing the overall elegant appearance of the knife and emphasizing the tasteful line of the knife when open or closed. It will remind you of a hummingbird's wing, or a soap bubble in sunlight. I think you'll enjoy it each time you use it as I do.
The finish is tough, but does show light marks after about eight months of duty. Very light marks, though, but I mention this if you want to keep the knife in perfect condition. You might get a workhorse knife like the Vapor or the Whirlwind II to carry daily, and then carry the Rainbow Leek or Scallion with you when you are casually dressed after work or on weekends.
The knife comes razor-sharp, and can easily be returned to that condition with an inexpensive diamond sharpener. It holds an edge well, but is definitely a knife you won't want to abuse by throwing or prying with it.
I hope this helps you in making your decision. If you decide to invest in this knife, I'm sure you will enjoy owning and using it.
