Random Task?

JNieporte · Jul 20, 2008

I don't know the model number, but I saw a photo of a Kershaw / Ken Onion Random Task, and..... I want it! I know there's the Random Leek (model 1660T) but that's not what I'm describing.

EDITED to add.... it's model number 1510. Long discontinued :-(

Yes the 1510 random task is prob. the all time favorite with a majority here on the Kershaw forum. There are also these models in the series 1510ST, 1500, 1500ST, 1520, and 1520ST . They also made a few left hand versions. You can still get a 1510 , they come up on the bay almost every week , be prepared to spend some dollars though, if you can score one for less than $150 , you have done very well !!!

Mine will be here this week! I'm looking forward to adding it to the gun safe collection.

They dont show up as often as they use to. You can keep your eyes out here on the forums in the for sale and trade part. You never know but one could show up any time. GOOD LUCK! Kevin :thumbup:

I agree these models are very nice. Just seeing pictures got me hooked. They are even nicer in person.

There were 2 1510ST's and a 1500 whose auctions ended last week. I waited too long on the 1510ST that was on "Buy It Now". Some weeks there are none, then others tons. Need to keep looking for a 1500 and a 1510ST to complete my Task collection, they'll show up.

I looked at it for a day and then went ahead and bought it. I thought $ 73.99 was a good price. That's the one that should be here tomorrow. The other one sold Buy It Now for $ 132. Thanks for waiting!

No problem. Happy to oblige. I won a Spyderco Lum C65S earlier in the week and kept debating about buying another nice knife (or 2) in the same week. The indecision saved me some money and kept me from getting in trouble.

Great score on the $73.99 1510ST! Did you get both?

No, just the one. But I did add a Talon, a 1660CB, 1660G10, and a 1660TIZDP last week!

Wow! Nice weeks worth of "work".

Thanks! I had some help from The Family on one of those (you know who you are, and Thanks again!:thumbup
