The Kershaw Runoff is a compact manual folding knife designed for everyday cutting work and convenient pocket carry. Its 3.1-inch clip point blade provides a useful combination of slicing edge, controllable tip geometry, and a plain edge that is straightforward to maintain. Kershaw makes the blade from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel and gives it a clean satin finish. The clip point profile is particularly useful when a precise point is needed for opening packaging, trimming material, or handling other routine cutting tasks, while the 7.15-inch open length offers practical reach without making the knife cumbersome to carry. Deployment is handled through a flipper and Kershaw’s manual KVT ball-bearing system, allowing the blade to move smoothly without an assisted-opening mechanism. A steel button lock secures the blade during use and provides an accessible release when it is time to close the knife. The black glass-filled nylon handle uses two distinct surface textures to improve contact and control while keeping the overall weight to 3 ounces. An olive-colored backspacer adds visual contrast and incorporates a lanyard loop for users who prefer an additional retention or identification option. At 4.05 inches closed and 0.49 inch thick, the Runoff fits comfortably into an everyday-carry setup without requiring excessive pocket space. The reversible deep-carry clip supports right- or left-side tip-up positioning and keeps most of the folded knife below the pocket edge. Black-oxide handle screws, a bead-blasted pivot, and a bead-blasted pocket clip complement the practical black handle and satin blade. Designed and quality controlled in the United States and manufactured in China, the Runoff combines a versatile blade shape, smooth manual action, secure button lock, and adaptable carry configuration in a lightweight folding pocket knife.
