Overview of the Kershaw Launch 4 Automatic Knife | 7500
The Kershaw Launch 4 Automatic Knife (MPN 7500) is the perfect proof that you do not need a massive blade to carry a high-performance tool. While it is short on blade length, it is exceptionally tall on style and utility. This bestseller features a 1.9 inch blade, making it California-legal and compliant in many other jurisdictions where larger automatic knives are restricted. Whether you are navigating strict local regulations or simply prefer a minimalist carry, the Launch 4 offers the speed and reliability of a professional-grade automatic folder.
Premium Materials and Finish
Your cutting tasks are handled by upgraded CPM 154 powdered metallurgy steel, which provides a superior balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Current production models are finished with a black Cerakote coating, offering enhanced protection against wear and chemicals compared to older DLC versions. The handle is machined from 6061-T6 anodized aluminum, ensuring the knife remains incredibly lightweight at just 1.8 ounces while maintaining a solid, comfortable grip for any task.
Designed for the Field
This tool is built for those who require immediate readiness. Law enforcement officers, forensic investigators, and EMS professionals rely on the Launch 4 for its discreet size and powerful opening kick. The low-profile push button is recessed to make it harder for the blade to deploy accidentally in your pocket. Proudly made in the USA, the 7500 is a field-tested solution for users who demand American craftsmanship in a compact, everyday carry package.
