Cold Steel SR1 Lite 4" Folding Knife - 8Cr13MoV Blade, Black Griv-Ex Handle, Pocket Clip Included

The Cold Steel SR1 Lite 4" folding knife is built for hunters, campers, and outdoors folks who need a reliable blade without carrying unnecessary weight. This compact folder pairs a stainless steel 8Cr13MoV blade with a lightweight Griv-Ex handle in black, making it equally at home in a pack, truck, or pocket. The included pocket clip means you can carry it configured the way that works for your rig—clipped inside a pack, on a belt, or in a jacket pocket. Cold Steel engineered this one to deliver everyday cutting performance in a size that doesn't demand space or add bulk.

The clip-point blade geometry works well for general camp chores, field processing, and the kinds of cutting tasks that come up when you're hunting, fishing, or working around camp. Stainless steel holds an edge reasonably well and resists rust without the fussiness of high-carbon maintenance. Griv-Ex is tough polymer that grips in wet or cold conditions and won't absorb water or swell. At 4 inches, this knife threads the needle between capability and packability—large enough to do real work, small enough that you'll actually carry it.

Whether you're a minimalist who travels light or someone who prefers a secondary blade that won't eat your pack weight budget, the SR1 Lite deserves a spot in your kit. It's the kind of knife that disappears until you need it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included with the SR1 Lite?

The knife comes with a pocket clip, so you have carry options right out of the box.

Will this knife rust or corrode?

The 8Cr13MoV blade is stainless steel, so it resists rust and corrosion better than high-carbon alternatives—ideal for field conditions where you may not get a chance to dry and oil the blade immediately.

Is the Griv-Ex handle durable in the field?

Griv-Ex is a tough, water-resistant polymer that grips securely even in wet or cold conditions and won't swell or absorb moisture like some natural materials.

What's the clip-point blade good for?

Clip-point geometry works well for general cutting chores around camp, field processing, and everyday tasks. It offers a sharp tip without the extreme point of a drop-point blade.
