Overview
The Kershaw 1306BW is a knife built with a 4Cr14 steel blade and a stainless steel handle, running 7.75 inches overall with a 3.3 inch blade and weighing 113 grams. Kershaw is a known knife maker, and the BW in the model name typically refers to a blackwash finish.
4Cr14 is a budget stainless steel common in Kershaw's value lines, chosen for corrosion resistance over premium edge retention. At 113 grams and 7.75 inches overall this reads as a folding pocket knife sized for everyday carry rather than a heavy duty fixed blade, though the seller supplies no further description to confirm the lock or opening mechanism.

Who it's for

Pros and cons

Performance notes
4Cr14 steel resists corrosion well and sharpens easily, trading some edge retention for that ease of maintenance, which suits an everyday carry knife that sees frequent light use. The stainless handle and 113 gram weight keep the knife pocketable at 7.75 inches overall.
