Elevate your everyday carry with the Kershaw Bel Air 6106DAM, a premium Damascus steel variant of the popular Bel Air DuraLock folding knife. This special edition blends artisanal Damascus patterning with the rock-solid performance Kershaw is known for, turning a practical EDC tool into a standout piece in both function and style.

At the heart of the 6106DAM is a Damascus steel blade, offering excellent edge retention and a distinctive layered pattern unique to each knife — combining visual appeal with cutting capability beyond standard stainless steels. The clip-point profile pairs precise slicing, clean piercing geometry, and versatile utility, making it well-suited for everyday tasks, field prep, and general outdoor work.

The ergonomic micarta delivers a secure, comfortable grip whether you’re cutting cordage, opening packages, or handling general camp duties.

The slim profile and reversible deep-carry pocket clip make the 6106DAM an easy-to-carry option for daily use, while the artistic Damascus blade elevates its presence for collectors and enthusiasts alike — a knife that performs as well as it looks.
