Where did Kershaw come from? It started as a company not too long ago, in 1974.
Pete Kershaw founded it, and brought a lot of pocket knife experience with him.
He used to be the national sales manager of Gerber Legendary Blades. His vast knowledge of pocket knives gave Pete a jump start into his own knife business.
Three years later, he partnered with a Japanese blade manufacturer, called KAI
Group. In the years 1996-2003, he started manufacturing some of the knives in the USA, in Wilsonville, Oregon. In 1998, he was helped by designer Ken Onion and developed the patented “SpeedSafe” mechanism, an assisted-opening feature. This opening feature is utilized in the Leek, Scallion, and Chive models, which remain very popular to this day. Today, in 2026, Engraved Kershaw Knives remain a very popular set of gift knives. Companies who want to give a lasting Christmas gift to their customers choose Kershaw. The company logo is permanently laser engraved on the blade or metal handle.
Engraved Kershaw knives have grown in popularity as both practical tools and meaningful keepsakes. Known for combining performance, affordability, and sleek design, Kershaw knives have long held a respected place in the everyday carry (EDC) community. Adding custom laser engraving has made them valuable as keepsakes.
Kershaw Scallion Knife
Founded in 1974, Kershaw Knives built its reputation on innovation, precision heat treatment, and collaborations with respected designers like Ken Onion. Models such as the Leek and Scallion are especially popular choices for engraving due to their clean blade surfaces and strong brand recognition.
One reason engraved Kershaw knives are in demand is their versatility as awards. They are commonly personalized for weddings, retirements, and corporate milestones. A name, badge number, meaningful date, or short message transforms a high-quality tool into a lasting memento. For groomsmen gifts in particular, engraved knives have become a modern alternative to traditional accessories.
Collectors and outdoor enthusiasts also appreciate the balance between customization and usability. Unlike decorative-only blades, Kershaw knives are built for rugged every day use. The blades always come out of the box with extremely sharp blades.
