I collect Tactical folders on the cheaper side. Got to looking at the Kershaws and I added a few to the collection. IMHO, nice knives for the money. More to come I'm sure. Mike in Missouri.

Nice! I have the Brawler, Injection, and Oso Sweet myself. I really like the Brawler for some reason. Lately I've been eyeballing the Crown. What do you think of your Crown?

You'll like it. It's on par quality wise with the rest of Kershaw's budget line.

Did have some issues with the pocket clip though. The big round end really likes to reach out from the pocket and grab anything you may bump up against. My buddy snagged his on something and bent the clip. When I went to take the clip off to bend it back my torx wouldn't budge the screws. They must have either had red loctite or super glue on it. His Crown now resides in his car.
 
Those are great mike thanks for sharing. As another poster above suggested, look at the kershaw emerson collaborations. All the fun of an Emerson without the chisel grind :p
 
The crown is a very solid knife for the money and it is a discontinued model also. Not an ultra fast flipper though in my opinion.

I've carried a Kershaw Crown as one of my EDCs for several years (I finally bought a backup when I liked the Crown so much). A great knife IMHO. I didn't like the pocket clip - not spring nor tempered; when I tried to bend it, it just snapped off. I prefer a pocket carry anyway and the lack of a pocket clip didn't bother me (I removed the remaining attachment). It's a well constructed knife; holds up well with pretty constant use. Takes a good edge (passes the phone book paper test after sharpening). While they are now discontinued, you can find the on the auction site and the book site and occasionally some online dealers have them. Can't beat the price for a good user EDC; just get one (sorry no, I won't sell my backup Crown :-)

Kershaw Injection.

If you haven't yet, the Kershaw Emersons are worth a look. My brother's had 2 of the CQCK 6 and they were pretty solid.

Ive kinda moved on from Kershaw but still own one model, which I really like.
The CQCK-6 you mentioned. Great knife for the price.
 
I just saw one at Blade HQ called the Kershaw Dash, anyone have one? Opinions would be welcome. I only want the USA made Kershaws . My Knockout is one of my favorites.
