Hello all. I recently discovered a Kershaw knife that I had never given much thought to until I handled one. The story goes like this. I recent ordered my wife a Kershaw Chive in pink and ordered myself a black Shallot. Her knife was going to be suprise to her since she is a nurse and had been using an old swiss army knife I had given her to use at work. She loves knives almost as much as I do and I wanted her to have a clip on knife for the convience factor. When the package arrived I opened it and discovered the company had sent me a pink Leek either by mistake or maybe had been out of the pink Chives and had substituted the Leek. At first I was kinda disappointed thinking she probably wouldn't like the Leek being larger than the Chive but I thought I would give it to her anyway and she what she thought. Well, she loved it! And after playing with it for a while I fell in love with it as well, all but the color of course. I forgot about the Shallot and we both played with the Leek all that afternoon. We must have opened it a hundered times each amazed at how fast the action was! It was quite a bit faster than the Shallot. The blade design is what I really came to like and had in the past thought the Leek's had an unusual and ugly blade style. This style blade is fantastic! It cuts like a razor and has the precise control of a scapel! The overall size of the knife is great as well. Not to big, and not to small. Well I was hooked and probably would have taken it from her and gave her the Shallot if it had not been pink. I ordered myself a silver colored Leek the next day! What do you guys think of the Leek? I know I sure like mine and found my new EDC knife for sure! Thanks for listening to my story and God bless! :thumbup: ,,,VWB.
