Need help with multiple Kershaw name changes...

[diamdave]

So.... Barrage is now Salvo? Blitz is Nerve? Or do I have it backwards? Which came first, and why all the name changes?

Barrage is now Salvo, yes. I think (but I'm not positive) that Benchmade (who has had a model named Barrage for a long time) had a problem with Kershaw's use of the name. Blitz is now the Nerve, yes. I don't know why the name change; maybe the designer (RJ Martin) felt it wasn't close enough to his version of the knife. I'm just speculating on this one.
