Part of Ken Onion’s line of Kershaw knives inspired by his own namesake, the Chive is on the smaller end of folding knives, which makes it easy to fit in a pocket, pack, glove box, purse, or really anywhere you need it. The Chive features a recurved blade made from 420HC stainless steel. The recurved shape is excellent for light slicing, but it’s got a fine tip for detailed cuts, too. Outfitted with SpeedSafe—which Ken Onion invented—the blade opens in a jiff by way of the flipper tab or thumbstuds.
A former US Marine and avid knife collector since childhood, Ken Onion is known as one of the most innovative knife designers in the industry. The youngest member ever inducted into the Knifemakers Hall of Fame, Onion holds 36 patents and actually invented Kershaw’s acclaimed SpeedSafe opening system. A firm believer in American-made craftsmanship, Onion currently operates out of his workshop in Kaneohe, Hawaii.
