Kershaw Cryo Blackwash - from Bereli on Closeout Sale
Another 'closeout' sale at Bereli for this knife. . .

Kershaw Cryo Blackwash Folder

. . .for $19.99 ea. and free shipping.

A quick internet search show these going for ~$25 - $55 (and more).

It's a pretty basic knife with 2.7" drop-point SS blade, but if you like the 'look' and/or need some stocking stuffer's this may be worth a look.

They have some other Kershaw's on the 'closeout' sale page as well.

(Posted in "Lounge" as the other heads-up sale at Bereli was posted here too. I can move to "The Essential Edge" if appropriate.)

That’s a very nice knife for that price if you’re looking for everyday use and don’t mind a bit of weight. I have the TI-finish version and really like it for general use, but mine stays in my work portfolio most of the time because it’s a little heavy in the pocket for me compared to my other options.

I have that same Ti finish one, carry it everyday. Always wanted the blackwash.

I tried to order, but their website didn't seem to get along with Brave Browser. Too bad.

Worked with Brave for me. Triple check entered info maybe?

Admittedly it's been a good seller for our shop. But for myself I prefer Made in USA Kershaws.

Just bought two. I have a place in my house where I'm constantly opening packages and never have a knife. No more. But seeing monoblok's post that it isn't made in the US just now is a Bummer. I'd assumed it was.

Not the only good deal they have.
Several models are Kershaw closeouts.
Not sure if they are all Chicom or US made but very good prices nonetheless:

I gave one of the G10 versions (that’s included in this sale for $29.99) to my son-in-law last and one to my other daughter’s boyfriend last Christmas. It was good to see one of them in use a few months later at one of them’s workbench. The G-10 version is somewhat lighter than the usual version and looks good.

Ditto.

I've bought some Chinese knives just to see what they make, a Sebenza copy in steel for example. Heavy but well done I must say. This Kershaw won't be a point of pride but I expect it'll work well. It does look nice and the size is handy.

Where did you find country of origin?

A lot of the higher-end Kershaws (Blur, Leek, etc) are US made but must of their cheaper line comes from China. If you have a specific one you’re interested in, you might check the specs on that model at Blade HQ if your seller doesn’t list it.

I had a version of this for several years that was just under 3” long and loved it. Unfortunately it got lost in the move and I could not find a direct replacement. Ended up getting on that was 3.5” long and it’s great but HEAVY!.

Thanks for the heads up. I just ordered 2 so I’ll have one when I invariably loose the first!

Won't let me check a shipping option. I think that's the problem. Just standard Defender with up to date Brave on up to date Win10.

Updated to add:
I just bypassed the shipping and wrote in the note that it wouldn't let me choose but Free Shipping was fine with me. So it said I ordered - we'll see.

That's what I have, I guess Defender is in the mix but I pretty much ignore it. Can you call Bereli to order?

Mine gave the same message. I screen shot it.
