Kershaw Launch 4 Auto – 1.9″ CPM-154 Satin Spear Point Blade, Blue Anodized Aluminum Handle USA Made – 7500BLU

The Kershaw Launch 4 7500BLU is the blue Launch 4 — CPM-154 satin spear point in the most compact automatic in the Launch lineup, on a blue anodized aluminum handle that carries the same sub-2-inch discrete carry format with bold color presence rather than the raw, patina-developing character of the 7500RAW.

The Launch 4 occupies a specific and underserved position in the automatic knife market: a sub-2-inch USA-made side-button automatic in premium steel. Most production automatic folders are sized for primary carry at 3 inches and above. The Launch 4 is sized for carry situations where even a standard-size folder draws attention or creates unwanted bulk — front pocket alongside keys and a phone, shirt pocket, suit or dress carry, or as a backup automatic where minimum profile is the priority. CPM-154 is Crucible’s powder metallurgy version of 154CM — more uniform carbide distribution, better edge retention, improved toughness, and excellent corrosion resistance in a 1.9-inch blade that handles the full range of everyday light cutting tasks. The satin finish delivers a smooth, reflective blade surface that shows the spear point’s grind geometry clearly. The blue anodized aluminum handle carries the same compact footprint as the 7500RAW in a bold, saturated blue that reads with immediate color presence — where the raw aluminum develops a natural patina and carries as bare honest metal, the blue anodize carries as a declared color choice, an intentional visual statement in the most compact automatic format Kershaw produces. Blue anodizing creates a hard aluminum oxide layer integral to the metal — the color cannot chip or peel. The cool silver-grey of the satin CPM-154 blade against the blue anodized handle creates a cool two-tone pairing, both materials in the same cool color register for a visually unified compact carry piece. All assembled in Tualatin, Oregon on Kershaw’s USA production floor.
