Kershaw Emerson CQC-6K Folding Pocket Knife | D2 Steel, Wave Opening

Smart, reliable EDC with precision engineering

The Kershaw Emerson CQC-6K combines Kershaw’s tight tolerances with Emerson Knives’ proven functional design. Its 3.25-inch modified clip-point blade is crafted from D2 steel, delivering solid edge retention and hardness for a range of everyday tasks. The blade is finished with a satin look on the flats and a rugged stonewashed treatment on the grinds, giving a refined yet practical appearance in any light.

Designed for confident handling, the front scale uses textured G-10 for a secure grip, while the back is a stainless steel frame that locks firmly in place. The knife opens manually via a thumb disk, and the Emerson wave feature enables rapid deployment as the user withdraws the knife from the pocket. A reversible pocket clip supports both left- and right-handed carry, making it a flexible choice for different setups and environments.
