Design and blade metallurgy
The blade’s Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel is engineered for a fast edge and good corrosion resistance—ideal for everyday tasks in varied environments. KERSHAW LEEK’s diamondlike carbon (DLC) matte-black coating adds wear resistance and reduces reflective glare, maintaining a low profile during tactical use. The modified drop point balances a long cutting belly for slicing with a controllable, narrow tip for precision.
Ergonomics and deployment
SpeedSafe assisted opening is ambidextrous, offering repeatable, reliable one-handed deployment that works for right- or left-handed operators. The slim handle footprint and pocket clip make the Leek comfortable for deep carry without bulk. Its U.S. manufacture ensures consistent assembly and quality control.
Field performance and value
At a price of $73.79, the Leek represents strong value for a purpose-built EDC knife with premium steel, DLC protection, and a trusted assisted-opening system. For slicing tasks, the Sandvik steel and blade geometry excel; for precision cuts and light piercing, the slim tip performs reliably.
