Cold Steel SR1 Lite Folding Knife 4in Plain Satin Clip Point CS62K1

The Cold Steel SR1 Lite Folding Knife is a rugged, no-nonsense tool engineered for performance in demanding environments. Drawing inspiration from the legendary SRK fixed blade—long trusted by military personnel—the SR1 Lite adopts a streamlined, utility-first design focused on strength, functionality, and cost-efficiency. Whether you're on a tactical mission, deep in the backcountry, or simply need a dependable everyday carry, this folding knife delivers on all fronts.

At the heart of the SR1 Lite is a robust 4-inch clip point blade crafted from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel with a satin finish. This steel offers a strong balance of edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of maintenance, making it a solid choice for users who need reliability in varied conditions. The clip point blade design enhances piercing ability while still providing plenty of cutting edge for slicing and utility work.

The knife opens manually via ambidextrous thumb studs and locks into place with Cold Steel's renowned Tri-Ad Lock, engineered by Andrew Demko. This lock mechanism is widely respected for its superior strength, shock resistance, and long-term durability—ideal for high-stress use where failure is not an option.

The handle is made from Cold Steel’s proprietary Griv-Ex material, a high-performance thermoplastic that is lightweight yet incredibly durable. Its coarse texture provides a secure, slip-resistant grip, even in wet or muddy conditions. The black handle scales are contoured for comfort during prolonged use and include an ambidextrous stainless steel pocket clip for convenient carry.

Measuring 5.37 inches closed and weighing 6.9 ounces, the SR1 Lite offers a substantial feel in the hand without unnecessary bulk. Its overall length of 9.375 inches when open ensures reach and leverage, making it well-suited for tasks ranging from field dressing to emergency rescue.

Designed for hard use and priced for accessibility, the Cold Steel SR1 Lite is a dependable folding knife for those who demand real-world performance without the premium price tag. It captures the essence of Cold Steel's field-tested legacy in a compact, foldable format built for action.
