Kershaw 6044TBLK CQC-8K 3.50" Folding American Tanto Plain 8Cr14MoV Black Oxide - Black G10

The Kershaw CQC-8K brings Emerson's tactical folder design to Kershaw's everyday-carry lineup. This folding knife pairs a stout 3.50" American tanto blade with Kershaw's signature production quality and the signature Emerson Opener for fast, one-handed deployment as the knife clears your pocket.

The blade is cut from 8Cr14MoV stainless steel and finished with a non-reflective black-oxide coating. Its single-bevel tanto grind forms a reinforced piercing tip, while the plain edge handles utility cuts, boxes, and general EDC tasks with ease. At 8.10" overall with a 4.60" closed length and a weight of just 5.30 oz, the CQC-8K rides comfortably in the pocket without printing heavily.

Black G10 handle scales deliver a secure, grippy surface in wet or dry conditions and stand up to hard daily use. A reversible pocket clip supports ambidextrous carry, letting left- and right-handed users configure the knife to suit their draw. The Emerson Opener wave-shaped feature on the blade spine hooks the pocket for instant deployment, making the CQC-8K a hard-use folder ready for everyday carry right out of the box.
