| Defensive Knives & Other Weapons Most people that carry a gun also carry a knife or other weapon as a backup. Finding a good blade is often harder than finding a good pistol or revolver. |

Kershaw NRG ?
I did not find anything with a search so I thought I would ask. Anyone tried this knife? Kershaw NRG (pronounced Energy) in the 3.5" blade.
http://www.knifecenter.com/kc_new/st....html?s=KS1745 I am looking for a new EDC knife and this one caught my eye. The changable clip (either side or either end) really looks good to a lefty. I have never handled one and hate to buy sight un seen but I might have to. Just looking for some input.

not sure what the...NRG's...patented "pseunetic®" opening feature is, but the Leek can easily be opened or closed with one hand! Stay armed...stay sharp...stay safe!

The flexability of the clip is a magor plus for me but I would sure like to handle one first.
Here is a video of the way it opens up. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCAp6FGAWWo

Note: When practicing the one handed closing, you may need a box of Band-Aids available before becoming proficient...  those Kershaws are definitely sharp!Stay armed...stay sharp...stay safe!

Just wanted to add, I had a Myerco years ago with the flipper and I think I prefer that to my "assisted" Kershaws and thumbstud Benchmades.
I think I need to get one of these "NRGs"
