This is a Kershaw 1074 - how does it differ from Kershaw 1077 Camp 10, and does this 1074 have the same sheath as the Camp 10?
60022
The Kershaw 1074 Camp 18 has an 18 inch long blade which is much longer compared to the 1077 Camp 10's 10 inch blade. It does come with a molded plastic sheath with nylon strapping which is nearly identical to the one included with the shorter 1077 Camp 10 only longer. They are both made out of the same carbon steel which has a black powder coating. The 1077's blade is about 2/10th of an inch thick. I do not know if the longer blade on the 1074 is that thick. Usually on blades that long manufactures thin the blades down to about an 1/8 of an inch thick to keep their overall weight reasonable. An 18 inch blade is a machete length blade.

The kershaw 1074 is I believe from looking up model numbers an eighteen inch knife. I bought the 1074 which is ten inches and comes with a right or left hand adaptable sheath. The sheath is plastic in construction and very sturdy. I cannot be for certain on the 1074 sheath, but I went with ten because it is more manageable then eighteen inches of blade. Depending on your job you intend to use it for. The ten has a good weight to it and is thick blade, and full tang (metal from tip all the way through the handle of the knife). The handle is molded plastic over the metal blade and has a rubber grip, even through being wet it is very managable.

The picture of the sheath for the XAVT at the oregonknifeshop Website looks exactly the same as the sheath for the smaller XLT. This does not exactly make me eager to purchase it, as the chances are that they don't have the XAVT accessory. Please prove me wrong and I'll buy one...STeve Z

Since, I think, August of 2013, Kershaw started getting away from Crucible, aside from S30V, for their steels. I just bought one recently and it is not CPM D2, just regular D2. Will you notice a difference? probably not. Is there a difference? yes. It is a shame because I thought I was buying CPM D2. Amazon needs to update the description.

It is a kadex sheath i.e. Solid plastic into which the blade fits in with a snap and remains secure. The handle is held by a strap. You don't need to buy another sheath beside the one that comes with the knife

the blade is 10 inches, the handle is 7 inches long, hints the knife is 17 inches long. The knife is great for batoning firewood but not so great as a chopper for cutting trees down. . The sheath sucks.although it works just fine a well-made plastic sheath would have been better. I think the Esee jungulas comes with a better sheath and has a much more durable finish on the knife blade Thanks.

It is a hard plastic sheath, known as kydex. Hope this helps, also before you buy, check out the Cold steel SRK. Better knife in my opinion. Good luck

I just pulled out my BK7 and BK11 and tested it for you, and NO it doesn't really work. The BK11 is too large for the secondary sheath insert that originally held the little BK? that used to ship for free with the larger BK7 and BK9. The BK11 sheath will slip inside the BK7's pouch, but the pouch flap is then in the way and needs to be tucked somewhere or cut off. IMO this pouch is better reserved for other gear like fire starting supplies and a sharpening stone. I personally think it's better to carry the BK11 around your neck, or in your pocket------------separately from the BK7. The knives serve different purposes, and I don't like to place all my eggs in one basket anyway. Hope this helps. :) W.W.

BK16 is a light duty camp knife that can't do heavy work. BK10 is a real crew/ survival type knife that can do light work if you need. I removed the thumb ramp from the BK10 for more control cutting or carving. BK2 is too heavy.

Good question, I could not find any info except VG/vV8-10 on the blade. Regardless, this is a fantastic little knife for EDC.

Apparently it is a difference in quality, if it doesn't measure up for some reason it goes into the lower category so I read online in a forum (but I haven't noticed any difference), but it is possibly the sheath included in the pack?

The bk22 does I have it molled to my gear bag for when I take it out of my scout sheath. Bk22 same knife just a different sheath that comes with it. Also has a pocket for a stone or a multi tool that's where I put my leatherman. That is what I would recommend is the bk22. It's a little more in price but, not by too much.

From the pictures they both look identical to the one I purchased. However, the $20 one is described as including a sheath, whereas the other one is not. I am very happy with the one I bought. I has a good comfortable feel in the hand, nice balance, nice lined sheath, keeps an edge fairly well, and looks cool.

I think the difference is that the shears are sold with (1120M) or without a magnetized sheath (1120X). The shears themselves are just shy of 9" when I measure them, but even with the sheath they are only a tiny bit longer. Maybe Kershaw makes a larger kind, but the 1120s all seem to be 8 7/8". And they're very nice. Highly recommended.

1075 is a bit softer. The edge will wear a bit quicker than 1095 but it is much easier to sharpen. It will also absorb shock a little better. It's a good steel for an all purpose knife that might be used for tasks that one might use a small axe for

My Trailmaster came with the plastic sheath and I am very happy it is not leather for a high carbon blade which is subject to rust.This blade is very big,I will take it with me when shtf occurs,it would be able to handle any task put before it.

As far as I know the only difference is the sheath. The knife it exactly the same.

Matthew, the 10 in the model number 31-10 means it IS a 10" blade. So if you're looking for a 10 inch blade, one would think that a 10 inch blade would work out for you....
