The Kershaw 1438 Maneuver is a practical, budget-friendly everyday work knife designed for reliable performance in a wide range of cutting tasks. Built with durability and ease of use in mind, it combines a strong blade, secure grip, and smooth operation in a lightweight, pocket-friendly design.

The stonewashed finish helps hide scratches and wear, making it well-suited for jobsite and general utility tasks.
