I like this one a lot. They have 15 different launch versions so they are all different sizes and shapes. Depending what I'm wearing I will choose a different size and this fits quite a few change pockets without being too small like the 9, but that will stick in just about any change pocket. So if you're looking for smaller change pocket knives the 4, 9, and 11 are really good choices with the 11 being on the larger side of that equation.
Good review. I have the 4, 9 and 11 in the Launch Series. Although the 9 is smaller than I really want, it is actually my favorite. Probably due to the blade shape. I was disappointed in the factory sharpness on my 4 and 9 but the 11 was definitely acceptable. I’ve run them through my Work Sharp 2.0 belt sharpener and find they get sharp very fast. I find the blade material to be right in line with keeping an edge and ease ability in sharpening. I may not be 100% in love with the designs but I am 100% in love with the materials and craftsmanship of these knives. They are solid! No blade play. Fit and finish is super. I simply can’t say enough about these budget autos in the marketplace. I don’t see myself buying a Benchmade or Pro Tech simply due to price. Other than my Buck 112 Auto, I’ve really been impressed with Kershaw’s autos. I’m thinking the Launch 13 will be my next Kershaw auto.
The deployment button on my 11 was difficult to press, felt gritty during depression, and sometimes would get stuck about halfway without the blade being deployed. I was surprised the QC didn’t catch it. Not the best impression when trying to welcome Kershaw back into the EDC daily rotation.
I went and looked at your video for the Hinderer. Remember this is a learning process. Your goal should always be to make the next video better than the last. Eventually you will get to some great videos. Pay attention to lighting and audio. They are very important. Invest in some cheap amazon equipement to help with those two areas. Good luck!

I never really had a quality issue with Kershaw. The design on the 11 was not favorite.
I like this knife and would love to own one. Out of stock...Nice video thank you
