Kershaw Emerson CQC-6K Framelock D2 Knife

Description

The Kershaw Emerson CQC-6K is a collaboration with Ernest Emerson, a respected name in tactical knife design, carries a 3.25-inch two-tone finished D2 drop point blade with the signature Emerson Wave feature integrated into the spine.

That Wave feature, a small hook on the back of the blade, catches on a pocket edge during the draw, deploying the knife automatically as it comes out of the pocket without needing to touch the thumb disc at all. D2 tool steel is a step up from standard stainless alloys, holding a working edge noticeably longer through repeated cutting thanks to its high carbon content. The knife pairs a black G10 front handle with a bead-blast finished stainless back handle, a durable combination that balances grip texture with rigid structural support. A frame lock secures the blade with the rigid, play-free lockup machined-metal locking bars are known for. Emerson’s designs have earned a dedicated following for exactly this combination of fast deployment and cutting capability.

Kershaw backs the CQC-6K with the same limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship that covers the full lineup, confidence in a design shaped around one of the tactical knife world’s most respected names. Explore more Framelock Knives.
