I received a late Christmas gift yesterday. I told my family it was something I would not get for myself and they got it for me. I really like it.

Nice one!

Nice looking knife.

Fancy handles for sure.

WoW!! That’s Nice!! Congrats

This is the only Kershaw I currently have. It's the 1570 with a tungsten coated blade

A December 2003 Kershaw Leek

I am a sucker for a Leek.

After having this leek with the speed safe must have to say it’s a great EDC . The black auto next to it is just too small ,so after finding this leek at Badger knife show and carrying it will probably sell the auto . The leek is slimmer and longer and that speed safe option is worth it . Paid 55 bucks . My friend also bought a Kershaw and he really likes it . Don’t remember what model .
The Leek 1660 is a great knife for dress or casual . And it is hardly noticeable in the pocket . Being a lefty this knife works great as well .

Only have 1 Leek a 1660 VIB, dated OCT 02 . Have box pouch paperwork and even plastic bag that knife came in. Purchased at SMKW in about 2003.

I posted the first pic under the Kershaw thread but it is a Leek after all. Second pick shows the Leek along with some other recent purchases including a Benchmade Adamas, a Mini Osborne, and a Art Winters Custom.

I’ve carried this one for several years now. It has not let me down.

Mike, you're living proof that the LEEK is an excellent choice for an EDC.

Picked up this orange Leek with blackwash blade & clip to round out my Leek collection of solid color/black blade Leeks at an even one dozen.

My Dirty Dozen

I love me a Leek

Nice lot Q, way to round out the group. I only have a couple because they keep being given away as well received and very popular gifts. They all like the Teal.

I like the Teal too! I wish Kershaw would make it with a black blade; then I'd have a baker's dozen.

I just went back through the whole thread and did see a blue with black blade, but don't think it was Teal. Still a looker though. And I picked this Teal up for 32 bills, that was 1/2 the price of many I saw, and given what you paid several years ago I can't believe the don't sell for more these days. A true bargain if you ask me, worth every cent. Can't belive the price has stayed so low considering how knife prices have soared lately.

Yup, that's mine; they call it Navy Blue (NB) (and it cost me just a tad* more than what you paid for the Teal )


* by "just a tad" of course, I mean more than 2X as much!

Ha ha, some Leeks ain't cheap anymore. I noticed several for sale asking as much as $250 for a rainbow, over $100 for carbon fiber and the exotic handles. Feel fortunate some are still less than $40 in the colors the kids like with plain uncoated blades. Great knife for under 40 bucks. Great value. The Navy looks great with the black blade. Congrats.

Hey ~Q~, I have one of those. Bought it in Aug. of 2018. I like it very much.

Wow no Leeks posted for going on two years. For such a popular knife it’s not getting much spotlight on AAPK lately

Had my Desert Sand/Black Blade Leek with me on my morning garden stroll. Every time I EDC a Leek I remember why I like them so much. Great knife!
