Kershaw Leek Pocket Knife, 3" 14C28N Stainless Steel Drop Point Blade, Spring Assisted Knife, Folding EDC

Q: where is this knife made?

I've owned 4 or 5 leeks by Kershaw over the past 10 years. A couple I lost/stolen, but either way there was nothing broken or malfunctioning with the fantastic Ben Onion design. But, the last 2 "Kershaw" Leeks I bought from Wal-Mart were different. They didn't have the razor sharp-blade that used to come with the Kershaw Leek out-of-the-box. It could never be duplicated either... no matter what type of sharpening stone, device, or type of stone was used. I can't tell you what had changed, but it was obvious that something had... They just were not the same knife they used to be. What a shame, the Leek by Kershaw couldn't be beat as far as I was concerned. Now I catch myself comparing others to what I remembered Leek to be. None match up, but a handful beat or equal what Kershaw advertise as a "Leek" now.

Q: I'm interested in the leek but really isn;t the main blade on a slipjoint knife stronger and thicker..Help me decide. slipjoint in 440c or the leek

It really depends on how you intend to use the knife. I use the leek as my EDC and absolutely swear by it for it's convenient size, sharp edge, pointy tip, and decent strength, but my ECD useage is for mostly small jobs (opening packages, cutting through zip ties, etc...). If you're EDC usage is going to be a bit more heavy duty (say you're in construction and will need it daily for big tasks) then you may be better off going with a knife better suited for tougher tasks. You'll want to sacrifice on size/weight for something bigger/heavier to stand up to the usage.

Q: Should this knife be used to cut chicken, fruits, etc. without rusting?

The blade is made out of Stainless Steel, no rusting with this blade. However, I do not know if the acid from the fruit could damage it, be sure to clean after use, especially to kill bacteria.
