Whether it's a hardworking pocketknife, a hunting knife or a special collectors' edition, Kershaw always chooses appropriate, high-quality materials and is dedicated to intensive craftsmanship. .com Constructed of 420HC stainless steel, Kershaw's Ken Onion Rainbow Chive compact pocket knife features a 1-15/16-inch blade. A 410 stainless steel handle offers a titanium-oxide coating, which gives this knife its rainbow effect. Kershaw's assisted opening system, SpeedSafe, assists the user to smoothly open the knife with a manual push on the blade's thumb stud or Index-Open system. SpeedSafe's torsion bar helps keep the knife closed, preventing it from being opened by accident. In order to open the knife, the user must apply manual pressure to the thumb stud to overcome the resistance of the torsion bar. After the blade is out of the handle, the torsion bar moves along its track and takes over. The blade opens smoothly and locks into position, ready for use. Measuring just 2-7/8 inches (7.3 cm) long when closed and weighing just 1.9 ounces, this versatile pocket knife includes a limited lifetime warranty and an embossed gift tin.

I carry my Chive most often because it fits in my watch pocket unobtrusively and meets my light duty needs. Obviously it is not for a fight or for heavy use, but it is easy to keep sharp. I bought the Rainbow model for my wife's purse a couple years ago, the finish has held up well. The opening "click" is always impressive, although it may need a little adjustment/lube from time to time.If you are looking for a knife to cut holes through the hood of your truck or even just to gut your game - I would not recommend this model (or any of the Ken Onions). Kershaw does make some other very nice heavy duty one handed knives though... ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome knife. Can't go wrong with a Kershaw. *by R***S on January 12, 2015* I love this knife. I actually bought the regular Chive and loved that.....so did my husband. So I gave it to him and went to order another and found the rainbow Chive. Pictures don't do it justice, it's pretty awesome looking. The finish is holding up pretty well so far. I'm really harsh on my tools, I consider my knives as tools, and it's staying nice and sharp, with just a few visible scratches, which is amazing for how many times it's hit the ground, and been used to tap things into place.My EDC is a Kershaw Junk Yard Dog(1720), which I absolutely love. Lately I've started carrying this one also as it's smaller and can get into tighter spots. I use my JYD for the rough stuff and the Chive when brute force isn't the best option. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Gift *by Z***K on April 30, 2013* I gave this knife to my little sister and she loved it. It is well made and beautifully designed. The finish is vibrant and the look is enhanced by its organic shape. The blade is very quick to come out with the flipper and there isn't any play but it is difficult to use with the thumb studs which rest right against the handle when closed. The frame lock is difficult to disengage but I don't mind because of the added security. I don't mind the safety which we don't really use because it is out of the way and stays in the position you leave it in. The handle is smooth and the jimping isn't particularly effective but it is shaped well to prevent slippage. Even though it is a soft steel the 420hc is well done, came sharp and is easy to sharpen although I would have preferred Sandvick. It does come set up for tip down carry which I find annoying. It is also just a little heavy for its size which is what you get with an all steel knife. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/11966546-kershaw-1600vib-ken-onion-rainbow-chive-pocket-knife-with-speedsafe](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/11966546-kershaw-1600vib-ken-onion-rainbow-chive-pocket-knife-with-speedsafe) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-11-10*
