Kershaw Random Task and Random Task II

[PG5768]

I was lucky enough to win a GAW last Fall. I've been meaning to post pics of the prize with its inspiration. Here they are.

The original Random Task set a high standard for production knives: CPM 440V Wharncliffe Blade, Ti liners and pocket clip, polished G10 handles, and the first production run of Ken Onion's AO mechanism. The new Random Task II is very reminiscent of its inspiration with the advantage of more carry options, a ZT style pocket clip, a 14C28N Wharncliffe blade, SS liners, textured G10 handles, and hopefully soon to be available for purchase.

That they do. My first was a S30V Blur, but the polished G10 of the Random Task got me hooked.

Very nice. I scored an original Random Task a while back too and its just awesome. Those old school Kershaws sure did have some amazing fit and finish for their pricetag.

I was a bit scared to try sharpen it but I tried last night and the S60v actually wasn't too hard at all to touch up. So far I'm impressed!
