I just got a Kershaw Barrage, and it is a great knife: incredibly sharp from the box, and great ergos. Only problem is the really small thumb stud, which makes it a bit hard to open.

I was looking at the Kershaw Blur, and the blade and scale seemed identical. Of course, the Barrage is a framelock, Blur is a liner lock.

But other than that, are the handles and blades (and hence the ergos) of these two knives as similar as they appear to be?

My thanks to all the Kershaw mavens out there.
 
The Blur is about 1/8" longer and is much wider but the profiles are similar. The big difference to me is that one is manual and the other is assisted opening.
 
This is all very helpful. A big thank you to all those who helped with good advice. This is a great forum.
