Kershaw 7205BLUBW Launch 22 AUTO Folding Knife (also known as the Kershaw Launch 22 Automatic Knife in Blue).
This is the Blue anodized aluminum color variant of Kershaw’s premium Launch 22 push-button automatic knife. It delivers the same rugged, overbuilt construction and high-performance materials as the standard models, but with a striking blue anodized 6061-T6 aluminum handle paired with black canvas Micarta inserts for enhanced grip texture and a bold, modern tactical/EDC aesthetic.

The 7205BLUBW is functionally identical to the OD Green (7205) and FDE (7205FDEBW) versions — the only difference is the vibrant blue handle color with black Micarta inlays. It offers the same snappy auto action, outstanding MagnaCut edge-holding, and comfortable grip. Users appreciate the eye-catching blue finish that stands out while maintaining a tactical profile, along with the reliable push-button mechanism and premium steel.
Who It's For
