SR1 Lite 8Cr14MoV Steel 4" Blade Griv-Ex Handle Tactical Self-Defense Folding Knife with Tri-Ad Locking Mechanism, Pocket/Belt Clip

Great value on a very good knife. It is bigger than most of my other EDC knives and that’s exactly what I wanted. It makes for a positive, firm grip for man-hands. Extremely sharp out of the box, awesome locking mechanism, and the tanto point is set for rugged duty use, pierce practically anything!

This is an indestructible knife; it came sharp and keeps its edge well. It fits perfectly into my hand, and I use it for everything, and I abuse it because it has utility for everything I poke, prod, pry, jam, cut, and still it remains a perfect knife the action is smooth, and I have never had any problems with it. Another plus is the quality for the price. If you work hard and want a good knife buy this one.

Excellent knife. Comfortable and sturdy to the touch. With grip that will not slip! This glorious piece of craftsmanship is not to play around with. The Tri-Ad lock is a perfect addition to an already perfect knife. Built to last. Very easy to open, the closing process should be done with care, because this blade is SHARP. Whether you're using this knife for tactical purposes, fishing, EDC.. it doesn't matter- it'll function all ways. I have a fairly big hand, so the fit is just right for me. But for someone with an "average-sized" hand, this knife will look a little bulky. But that's how I like it! As for the clip attached to it, unless you want to damage your pockets, I'd suggest vigorously smoothing out the area with some gritted sandpaper. Thank me later. Aside from that one small thing, the knife is A1.

When I considered the concept of a "pocket knife," I wasn't expecting a knife that actually filled my pocket! This thing is H-U-G-E!!! It measures 5.5" long by 1.5" wide closed, opening to 9.5" and weighing in at a whopping 7 oz! Like all Cold Steel knives, it arrived razor sharp (see paper-cutting video). It's a massive knife all the way around, with the blade spine measuring 5MM in thickness. I don't typically recommend folding knives as survival knives, but this thing is meaty and beefy, and its 5mm, 90-degree spine worked perfectly, throwing plenty of sparks from my Ferro rod. At sub $40, this knife is well worth the money if you like a large-format folder that can act as a survival knife in a pinch. And if you're concerned about the knife's strength and structural integrity, check out Joe X's folding knife destruction test. This knife outlasted the other 30 or so he put through the torture testing. It withstood abuse that knives triple its price could not withstand! ----- SPECS: 8Cr14MoV stainless steel, Griv-Ex handle, 4" Clip-point Blade, 6.9 oz. Made in Taiwan

Cold Steel SR1 Lite: Pros: Fit and finish on this knife are excellent. 4” Blade is strong and sturdy – 5mm thick at top of blade Blade locks up securely with no wobble Sharp enough out of the box to slice paper (see attached photo) Handle provides secure grip Manufactured in Taiwan rather than China Con: Clip has no flexibility, rendering it useless as is, but a small modification makes it work for me Solution: Since the clip is made from rigid steel, I could not get it to clip on the leg pocket of my Carhartt pants. After placing a small washer under the middle (lower) screw of the clip (see attached photo), this angled the clip up just enough that it now has just the right amount of tension on the seam at the top of my leg pocket. A slight amount of push gets the clip over the top seam of the pocket and then has no pressure on the main fabric of the pocket, so it should not cause undo wear on the fabric. I need not worry about the knife falling out of my pocket, should I become inverted, because it won’t go back over the top seam without my tugging on it a bit to get it out. I wanted to use a (properly flexible) clip from another knife, but none had holes that corresponded to the holes on the SR1 Lite, so drilling and tapping would have been required. Therefore, the addition of the washer was the simplest fix. In the other attached photo the SR1 Lite is next to my 3-1/2” Kershaw, which has been my EDC for about ten years now. I got the SR1 Lite because I wanted something a bit larger for the heavier cutting jobs at work and at home. I didn’t get the more expensive SR1 because of the spring assisted close, which I thought unnecessary and unsafe. The SR1 Lite supposedly has cheaper handle material, but I am completely satisfied with it, as it has a firmer grip than many of the other knives. The SR1 Lite is now my EDC and I think it’s a great knife for the price. Note: The website listed the blade as being 8Cr13MoV steel, but my blade is stamped 8Cr14MoV. I am no metallurgist, but from what I read online that means it has a bit more chromium, meaning a bit better corrosion resistance, but otherwise very similar. My Kershaw is 8Cr13MoV steel, and I’ve been quite happy with it. UPDATE: After using this knife for three months, I absolutely LOVE it! It easily handles the heavy jobs at work and at home, that all my previous, smaller knives, struggled with. After using it to slice through thick canvas, cut heavy plastic straps on pallets, and other similar jobs, it still has a sharp enough edge to easily open envelopes (I have not yet had to sharpen it). Despite it's size, it's light enough that I tend to forget it's in my leg pocket. If it came with a good clip that I didn't need to modify, it would definitely be a five star knife.

I’ll cut right to the chase (no pun intended). It’s a great knife. Perfect size and shape. Opens smoothly and is very sharp. However, like many people have mentioned, the clip is too stiff and is very difficult to remove from pocket. I have had some sweatpants that I’ve had for years rip a bit because of this. I’ve heard that some people have removed it and sanded down the area under the clip and that helped. I would recommend that if you can do that easily and are okay with the clip overall. However, let me give you a better and easier solution. To remedy the situation, I went ahead and ordered a replacement clip from Boker USA. I ordered a “ Böker Plus Strike Pocket Clip” in black for like $7 dollars and free shipping. So after replacing the clip, no only does it not have any issues with removing it, but now the clip is black, it’s smaller and less intrusive to hold, and it’s also an deep carry clip. 100% worth buying. Now for me, the knife is perfect.

My favorite daily carry. Thick, durable, easy to sharpen, very strong pocket clip. Lock works great, the handle is extremely comfortable and makes using it in different grip styles easy. The texture with the clip strength though can make it hard to get over some materials. Well balanced and for not being a "super steel" it still holds an edge pretty decently. Will definitely get another if I ever lose or somehow break this one.

The SR1 LITE is a tank. It has great ergonomics, economics and elegance. It's elegance is in its excellent quality control. Built like a bulwark, it has the superior strength of the Triad Lock. Highly recommended for heavy use.. Even the clip is extra strong. The clip can be tuned by inserting a screwdriver under the contact point. Some rough edges of the handle under the contact point can thus be smoothed out. After tuning, the extra strong clip slides easily over your jeans pocket. This knife has all pros, no cons. A truly 5 star knife, my favorite!

Das Produkt erfüllt alle Erwartungen

Superó mis espectativas. Excelente producto. Lo único que no me gusto fueron las cachas. Pero eso es cuestión de gustos y preferencias.

La he comprado de la tienda de segunda mano Amazon y ha llegado perfecta sin imperfecciones, solo la caja un poco chapada, En general creo haber realizado una buena compra.

Was soll ich sagen . Dieses Klappmesser von cold steel ist unverwüstlich. Der Backlock Verschluß verwandelt das Messer quasi in ein feststehendes Messer. Kommt Rasiermesser scharf geliefert. Die Daumenpins lassen sich einfach erntfernen. So hat man dann ein sehr stabiles Zweihandmesser. Dürfte ich auf einer einsamen Insel nur ein Klappmesser mitnehmen, wäre es das Cold steel. Preisleistungsverhältnis einfach nur super.
