Kershaw – KS7900CF – Launch 7 – Automatic Knife – CPM MagnaCut Stonewash Clip Point – Aluminum CF – Black

The Kershaw Launch 7 KS7900CF combines premium materials, American manufacturing, and modern industrial styling in a sophisticated automatic folding knife. Designed by Tim Galyean, this upscale version of the Launch 7 features a striking carbon fiber front handle, a black anodized aluminum rear handle, and a high-performance CPM MagnaCut stainless steel blade. Its long, lean profile and carefully sculpted contours create a refined appearance while maintaining the practical functionality expected from a premium everyday carry knife. At the heart of the KS7900CF is a 3.7-inch clip point blade crafted from CPM MagnaCut powdered metallurgy steel. Recognized for its impressive balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance, MagnaCut is an excellent choice for users seeking dependable cutting performance across a variety of applications. The blade’s stonewashed finish complements the knife’s industrial aesthetic while helping conceal minor scratches and signs of regular use. With a reported hardness of 62–64 HRC, this blade offers the hardness needed for sustained cutting performance while benefiting from the well-rounded properties of modern premium steel. The automatic opening mechanism provides rapid, convenient blade deployment with the press of a button. Its low-profile push button is designed to reduce the likelihood of accidental activation, adding a thoughtful safety-conscious detail to the knife’s streamlined construction. A push-button locking mechanism secures the blade in its open position during use. As with any automatic knife, users should familiarize themselves with its operation and observe applicable laws governing ownership, carry, and use. The handle is a defining feature of the Kershaw Launch 7 KS7900CF. Its carbon fiber front scale delivers a distinctive visual texture and a lightweight, contemporary feel, while the 6061-T6 aluminum rear handle provides structural support and durability. The rear handle’s black anodized finish reinforces the knife’s understated appearance, and the sculpted contours along the top and bottom offer a more defined gripping surface. An integrated backspacer completes the handle assembly, contributing to its cohesive appearance and solid overall feel. Additional details distinguish this model from more conventional automatic folders. Black-oxide hardware and a Cerakote-finished pocket clip coordinate with the dark handle and stonewashed blade. The reversible, tip-up pocket clip accommodates left- or right-side carry, allowing users to configure the knife to their preference. Weighing approximately 2.9 ounces, the Launch 7 delivers an impressive combination of blade length, lightweight construction, and pocket-friendly proportions. Made in the USA using American and global materials, the Kershaw Launch 7 KS7900CF is an appealing option for collectors and experienced knife enthusiasts who appreciate premium blade steel, distinctive handle materials, and precision-oriented design. Its combination of carbon fiber, aluminum, MagnaCut steel, and automatic deployment makes it a standout addition to a modern knife collection.
