The Kershaw Leek Is One Of The Best Budget EDC Knives You Can Buy!
The Kershaw Leek has an excellent iconic Ken Onion design that makes it unique, unlike many other knives. I fell in love with the design from the beginning of my EDC journey and the Leek was the first knife of my now ever-growing knife collection. The speed-safe is very easy to get used to and it is nice to have an assisted knife in a sea of non-assisted folders. The security mechanism is very annoying and I ended up taking it off all together because it will constantly locks the blade every time I needed to open the knife. I like that at least the have the option to keep it on or take it off to your liking. The ergonomics are great and it's built very strong to last a long time. It has also retained a great edge even after 6 months of nonstop use. I go into more detail on my youtube review if you are interested and want to check it out: https://youtu.be/YNzr78npSWk
