New to Kershaw

[Liveitloud]

Well I just bought my first Kershaw today, a Scallion. I have a question though. The "Needs Work" knife is pretty cool looking. I do not notice any type of thumb stud on it. I'm assuming that it has assisted opening. Is there a flipper on it? I could not tell from the stock pics how the knife functions. Thanks for any replies.
Also the Scallion I got was a bright blue handle with a black blade. I have not seen another one like it in all the sites I checked out. Is this an older discontinued knife or something new? I have never even held a Kershaw. From reading these threads it has really peaked my interest in what kind of knive they are. Can't wait to check one out.

The needs work is an AO knife with a nice big flipper. The scallion you bought is probably a new thing. Kershaw has just recently started doing alot of handle and blade combinations on the Scallion. If you look on the blade most Kershaws have a "born on" date. I love that black blade/ blue handle combo. Congrats on the nice knife.

Thanks for the info. The stock photos I have been looking at didn't give me an idea of a flipper. Yeah I really liked the black blade too. Can't wait to cut myself.
