Kershaw Lucha Butterfly Knife

Kershaw Lucha Balisong

The Kershaw Lucha is a butterfly knife, also called a balisong: two handles pivot around the blade's tang and close over it from both sides, so the knife folds without a spring or liner lock. It suits collectors and flippers who want a balisong from a major maker with a clean, worn-in look. The Lucha uses skeletonized handles, a clip-point blade and a matching dark blackwash finish across the knife.

Features

• Balisong Action — The two handles rotate independently on separate pivots, which lets you open and close the knife one-handed with practice.
• Clip-Point Blade — The spine drops in a long, shallow curve toward the tip, giving a fine point for detail cuts with plenty of straight edge behind it.
• Blackwash Finish — A dark, tumbled finish on the blade and handles gives an aged appearance and helps hide scratches from regular use.
• Skeletonized Handles — Diamond and slot cutouts run the length of each handle, removing material for a lighter, open-frame build.
• End-Mounted Latch — A black latch at the base of the handles holds them together when the knife is closed.
• Torx Pivot Screws — Black Torx-head screws at the pivots and handle ends allow the knife to be adjusted with a standard star driver.
• Model 5150BW Marking — The blade carries the 5150BW model number and a KAI USA stamp with a US flag on one side and the Kershaw logo on the other.

Build And Finish

The handles follow a straight, squared profile with chamfered ends and a pointed bolster area near the pivots, and the blackwash finish runs uniformly from tip to latch. When closed, the blade sits fully inside the handle channels. Butterfly knife laws vary by state and city, so check your local regulations before you buy or carry one.
