My price range was $45-$65. So far, the Kershaw Blur has come the closest to meeting my requirements for everyday carry. It is lightweight for having aluminum handles, thin and compact, comfortably shaped with rubber inserts for a good grip closed and open. One-handed open and close was important to me so the Kershaw Speedsafe spring assist feature worked perfectly. I prefer the Kershaw Blur over both of the other knives I bought recently: a USA-made Gerber Edict, unassisted lockback with a tanto blade, but a too-bulky handle and requiring a strong wrist flick to open one-handed; and a SOG Trident Elite which I believe has a Japan-made serrated blade which I otherwise like. but with large, uncomfortable-in-the-hand squared-edge handles with a seatbelt cutter notch I find unnecessary and not pleasing in appearance. I kept both of those knives but continued my search until I got the Kershaw 1670TBLKST. One concern I had as I ordered it was the liner lock. I have had some cheap Chinese-made knives that had a liner lock which either failed to lock up or were on the very edge of failure. I am happy to report that the Kershaw Blur stainless steel liner lock gives a positive lockup completely under the blade pivot. The notched edge of the liner lock sticks out from the handle enough for me to depress it with my thumbnail for an easy one-handed close. I don't expect to be putting my choice of an EDC knife through a heavy workload like many others do and as I did when I was younger. There are others reviewers reporting on that aspect. This will be clipped in my pocket for the occasional use around the house and yard and as a hopefully never-needed backup in an emergency. I purchased the one for myself, then another as a gift, and may just bump my price range up a bit for the Blur S30V. The USA-made Kershaw Blur is so comfortable in the hand you just hate to put it away. Read full review

I’ve carried this knife daily for 15+ years and it has never let me down. Kershaw offers the best product support of any company I’ve ever dealt with. Free blade sharpening. Free replacement parts. For life. No questions asked or paperwork required. Lost my last one to airport security and after a lot of research into other options, couldn’t find one that stood up to the Tactical Blur. So I replaced it w a brand new one. Couldn’t be happier ab that decision. The straight edge of the Tanto blade makes it perfect for scraping flat surfaces. The partial serration is great for stripping wires and all kinds of stuff. The grip material on the handles makes it immovable in your hand and remained just as effective after a decade of use on my last one. The SpeedSafe opening assist is excellent. I can’t imagine having a knife without it. After ab 7 years the spring finally gave out on my last one. Made one phone call and Kershaw sent me a new spring, new pocket clip, all new hardware and the tools necessary to install everything. For free. I’ve owned a large number of Kershaw knives, as well as others, but none of them quite measured up to the Tactical Blur. It’s worth every penny. Read full review

This is a Fantastic knife for everyday carry. The spring assisted opening makes one handed opening a breeze. This is a great everyday knife with a great multi purpose blade. When I’m out working, I wouldn’t be caught without it.

These are extremely sharp but you have to be very careful as the tip breaks extremely easy. I took 2 with me to Afghanistan and both tips broke trying to open up MRE boxes etc. I still have them a souvenirs but I'm ordering my third one just because I love how sharp they are. Not bad for the 35-45 dollar price range

Second one of these I've bought. Lost one recently, and immediately replaced it. Hard to find better quality, price in an American made tactical knife!
